    Frankie's V70r project

    As you all suspected my sensible-ness didn't last long, i cant be doing with a slow motor for a daily, (slow to me anyway) so i have bought myself a 98 v70r awd auto, cant wait to get behind the wheel of a v70r as i miss my old saffy, all ill be doing is throwing a map on it and keeping it looking good, pics later
