    My new C70 :D

    Well just give my new baby a clean. My S70 has just been sold to JOSEPH on here, so now I can take my NEW baby for a spin. One thing I did notice, is wind noise from the pillarless windows Not BAD, but a bit of a pain. The previous owner has spent THOUSANDS on her, so she's in tip top condition.............well, so far





    Thankyou, Goodnight....much love

    nightmare interior (shoes off!!!)

    Gorgeous looking car - you deserve it after the conrod fiasco/heartbreak.

    You must be thrilled (I would be)!

    I hope she goes as well as she looks.

    sadly bev and kev - sold their silver one and bought a bright red convertible?

    Step backwards if you ask me.

    One of these days we'll need to restage the original advert (with the 340) with a bit of added T5 spice?

    LOL! Bloody Hell, dont you lot know the Simpsons are on

    Thanks for the reply's guys. Yes, she is VERY clean inside, and now out. The odd lil mark here and there, but for the age, pretty much mint. TOTALLY made up with her!

    Wobbly, thanks for the tip, Ive got TONS of cleaning products, so I'll give it a go. And as for driving too fast, THAT'S why we buy T5's isnt it
    Thankyou, Goodnight....much love

    Ya know what, I dunno whether its worth modding. If I saw a modded Volvo, Scoob, or whatever, I'd stay clear now. I think I like the "standard" unabused type of car. BUT, Im also saying that all the guys n gals on here dont abuse their cars, just cos they mod them. Im just getting a lil bit older, and I dont really feel the need for speed anymore How OLD am i

    I think a RICA is due soon
    Thankyou, Goodnight....much love

    That's really, really sweet. I'd put that colour at the top of my list, over black for a C70. Is that just regular burgandy?
