When I was new here I popped up the wiki info and got shot down in flames..!! funny now though, but back then someone did say they were going to the factory later that year and that they would find out how many olives where made, but they never got back with an answer, would still like to know how many where made in the 3 colours and estates or saloons, so if any one out there has some real figures, there are a few on here that really would love to know for sure.

[Jamest5r]

Yep yellow yellow yellow

Got figures for yellow and black iirc green was a later addition or some thing like that

Maybe the below site is where the Wikipedia info came from??

http://www.volvotips.com/index.php/850-2/t-5r-and-850r/

The original production planned 2.500 cars but the car was a big success so 5.500 T-5Rs (saloons and stationwagons) were produced: 1.975 of them were Cream Yellow, 500 were Dark Olive Pearl (green) and 3.025 T-5Rs were painted in Black Stone.
