S70 T5 Manual

[deathrider311271]

well not so much a project but updates as to whats been done:

Bought in November from a member on VOC, it is a 3 owner car from new one of which was Volvo and is CD spec so has everything bar the satnav system and a week later it was mapped by Tim Williams.

A further week on and we arrive at our annual rolling road day and i can tell you i was well chuffed with 271bhp.

Since getting the car its had a full oil and filter change twice, new spark plugs, new coil pack, new ignition leads, new dizzy and rotor arm, new discs and pads all round and finally new tyres.

The only thing i was really not happy with as any S/V70 owner will tell you was the headlamp performance and was looking for the crystal headlamps from late C70, however they are quite rare and after nearly going off the road 3 times in the rain due to not being able to see the road, Frankie was breaking his V70R so i purchased his projector headlamps and indicators for a very fair price and installed them this weekend, the difference is like night and day over the old units even with HIDs in both set. Here are a few pics of them installed, i will get some at night next weekend.
