And I'm the not so proud owner of...

[AcidicDavey]

A C70 2.0T Collection!

Why you ask? Because the eBay listing was terrible and I was hoping it had the speaker dash, which it doesn't! lol It was cheap enough for me not to worry.

I will be taking the crystal headlights out and the grill and replacing them with the standard items from my V70 R breaker, I'll swap the wheels too.

So, in a few days some crystals will be available

If any C70 owners want the later rear lights let me know also.

As soon as the V5 arrives it will be put through the local auctions, roll the dice.

OK, I know my V70 is slow but this 2.0T is something else, it feels like my car does just before it boosts but never actually boosts instead
I guess though you don't need power in a C70, it's all about the joy of having the wind in your hair, not that this roof works either, nor the stereo (just the HU faulty)!

Yep.

[AcidicDavey]

The rear cards and possibly seats are a little different to the coupes sadly

[Orca2]

Am I correct in saying you bought this car for the speakers Davey..? Raasmali man you are the man! I love it.

As soon as I buy projectors because I've waited a year for crystals to come along and decided it's fruitless...

I expect Biff will want these. I could be interested in the rear lights if nobody's ahead of me in the queue! (could perhaps do part-ex so the car still has rear lights for the auction)

[Biff]

I'd love them but I'm afraid my funds are low at the moment.

You'll love this Orca, I bought it for the dash speaker that it doesn't actually have
I was hoping it had an SC901, dolby processor and speaker dash; it doesn't! Just an SC805 that doesn't work

Sorry Hound, bad timing on my part there, I've had this plan to get the speaker dash for a few months... and failed

No one's claimed the rear lights, a px would be ideal

I'd love them but I'm afraid my funds are low at the moment.

I don't mind holding them Biff, as long as it's not months and months...

So what are you saying sorry, we can part ex our current lights against your's? Straight swap or pennies your way? I'd like them on my C70 as a nice update.

[Orca2]

You are a purist Davey , a true Volvo crazy original.
