Odd one out.

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
