    Harvey's "R" has gone

    Well it's a sad day today,The "R" is no longer mine just sold it




























    Just in case you want to know it was the S60"R" not the V70"R".

    I didn't really wanted to sell but it just sat there,I think it did 130 miles in the last 8 months.
    So going to use the V70 a bit more since I got it just over 260 miles just daft.

    As above^^^^^^.....cars are meant to be used not looked at and is the same for me!!

    I use the 1.9TICD Zaffy cos it`s economical and with it`s 6speed up the Mway is quite good.

    The V70 i only use twice sometimes three times a week to go 1mile to Sainsbury in and then a white knuckle ride out in the sticks to let it have a run and charge the battery.......just a waste really!.....an expensive waste insurance and tax for nothing.

    The only time the Sonic will be for sale is when my Polestar is sat on the drive,so that will be in two years or so when the price is right.
    Will promise to list it for sale on VPCUK first.

    That was quick Harvey, only saw the mention that you might be thinking of selling on another thread during the past week!

    Healthy bank balance is always a good feeling until more car stuff says 'buy me'!
    S60 T5, 2001 in the garage for weekend, V40 2.0T 1999 to get to work, had a 440 Turbo 1990 before that. I like turbo Volvo's!
