Project rust box time to save the gul

**t5 pete** · Saturday 10th January 2015, 14:48

Been using the car a couple of times its such a pleasure to drive also got a new fault to fix so she's keeping me busy every time I loose traction all the dash lights go off and stay off until I turn the car off and restart so will hopefully get to the bottom of that tomorrow.

Thanks Andy, I was either mis-informed or not listening properly when I was told it was from the s70r, glad I hadn't just gone out and bought one, as I would have been very disappointed as the 854r spoiler is the one to have

New badges arrived today so hopefully will fit them tomorrow also had to buy a new battery as the bosch.096 failed and finally got round to putting the head light protectors on.

Very nice and tidy, great job.

Only very minor thing is I'd not have used pressed plates and would have chosen simple without GB logo and border, but that's a personal preference and I still wish I owned this car

Nice, and not even my OCD eye can see any wonky badges.

Truly Epic Pete!

I'm really surprised too that the badges are still available... I bet they weren't cheap but worthwhile nevertheless with the effort gone in.

ooooh yes!

Yeah volvo stock every badge but the TWR one they have it listed but no stock any where for the 3 other badges it was just over 70 delivered

That is one sexy beast mate, I'm well impressed and can't wait to see it.

**stribo** · Wednesday 14th January 2015, 20:25

Very nice, but I think the TWR badge should be in front of the T-5R badge.
