    a few pics...

    thought I'd stick a few pics up of my T5. As some of you may know this is Kyebosh's old car


    2000 V70 T5
    Just turned 121000 miles
    Very well specced, laminated glass all round, factory fitted blinds, pop out table in back seats, upgrade option speakers, headlight protectors, parking sensors etc

    Modifications (if you can call them that)
    Powerflex lower bush
    Painted calipers

    It definitely does. It is such a good car. Yes it has a couple of niggles but it has character when driven. New exhaust this week, unfortunately just a standard one for now as cheapest stainless was £340 and after 2 birthdays and a holiday to pay for this month and a baby on the way that'll have to wait.

    It's nice to see an early P2 in such good condition.

    A real credit to you and Kyebosh.

    Thanks Martin. It ideally needs the wheels refurbishing or replacing for bigger ones but dont really want to go too far away from the clean standard look, the passenger rear quarter has had paint at some point and could do with being done again properly.
    Hoping to eventually get more polybushes, 3" exhaust and downpipe, BSR intake, new stainless boost piping under bonnet, possibly something like a 19t and a remap to suit but it has to stay 100% reliable.
    All in its a very good example.
