    No i seen it maybe 2-3 times in nearly 2 years, and got all giddy about it, and that was before id ever been in a Volvo!lol Used to see K3 quite regularly though!

    There used to be an S60 R in the same colour that i used to see on my way back from when i used to work in Altens, used to be parked up opposite the Nigg Bay golf club entrance in Torry!

    At the time i was in an E46, then a C180.

    Now in the T5.....which was actually stumbled upon whilst i was just about to make plans to go down to Derby to get a 9-3 aero!
    Theres a Black S60 T5 with the mesh grill with an R badge that i see kicking about quite a bit, and there was a Dark grey V70 R that gave it big licks on Ellon road a few weeks ago whilst i was parked up eating my Mcdonalds.......bareley made a noise, it just picked up its skirt and went for it! I
    got all excited about that too, while the other half just sat there and rolled her eyes!

    I tried to get a race with an ex plod T5 he probably didn't even know what an R was. I've seen it a few times.

    There is a few kicking about up here but the Rs must be rare if you know where they all stay haha.

    I like the aeros, really understated car. You going to map the T5?
    Thanks

    No, but did I say my Dad was the best I.T person ever? No, I just simply said I've learned a lot off him.
