There will be absolutely NO interest or love for this around here, but here goes...
So, I thought I'd start a little thread about the latest addition to Casa-del-sideways.
What do you get when an 850
And an S70:
get it on??
A facelift 460.
The b4stard child of the two P80s, that never was anywhere near as good.
I bought this 460 CD a couple of weeks ago:
CD spec, so full leather, A/C (that actually works), remote locking (that half works), blah, blah...
Bought the car to replace Mrs Sideways' current daily - a S1 460 Turbo, which has become pretty unreliable in it's old age, but that will be coming off the road for a rebuild in good time.
Being a 400 series that hasn't lived in an air tight cocoon all it's life, the rear arches look like this:
So, they're getting new steel repair panels welded in and painted up.
Also, Mrs Sideways has declared that she wants another auto.
So I'll be changing gearboxes. That'll be nice.
So, plans:
Not that much really.
Tidy it up, new arches obviously, some different wheels, boot spoiler (they look wrong without them)
Got a stainless exhaust knocking about somewhere that I might persuade to fit
Auto conversion, deep joy.
That's about it really
