Just spotted this on ebay

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1999-VOLVO...#ht_746wt_1270

I thought the only TWR editons were earlier T5R s which were basically just a Fully specced T5R with a badge at the back.

It`s only in Poole so we could get Martin to give it the once over

It`s amazing what stickers you can buy on ebay these days.....

I've seen it and spoken to the owner (at the time), a year ago. Very tidy, nice rich exhaust note and very well maintained. He's a T5D5 member iirc. Had an "overseas" accent and isn't keen on P2 cars lol.

I saw it on Ebay a week or so ago, didn't mention TWR then. Still looks like a tidy car though.

MOST PARTS IVE BEEN TOLD ARE MITSUBISHI

well the turbo is, don't really consider that to be "most parts" tho lol

Itch itch itch itch lol.
Nice looking car, same seats as mine by the looks with the suede bits in. Climate control looks different to mine though - doesn't have the slider bar on.

it really is a tidy example. the twr lettering is backed up with some subtle pinstriping too.

This one just has the normal AC unit like mine, no climate control. Looks like a very nice example but that gearknob has to go!!

Don't be sold on that TWR nonsense! Looking at the pictures, the suspension hasn't been altered. I wonder what he's done under the bonnet? Has it been remapped? First thing i would do is rip out that crappy HU and refit the original too!
