Name is Martin, from the outskirts Peterborough, I have just recently purchased my first Volvo - A '97 P Reg. S70 T5 CD in Forest Green....and what can I say about the car? ... ... ...BLOODY AWESOME Will post up some pics of the car sometime in the week when I get time after work, so keep your eyes open Regards, Manzed

fraz13 - A mate of mine has a very similar one to mine in Forest Green, and I wasn't all for it at first.....but it is really starting to grow on me now, it has a sort of presence in the night feeling about it :) VikingT5 - Yep dude, that sound's typically like me, best foot fowards.....and I tread on a AP landmind :P

Thanks for the warm welcome guys. '"Forest' Green" is kind of like a light turquoise IMO, maybe minty to describe :cool: Andrew - Thanks for the heads up, will see if I can get myself free for then, would be a very nice drive :)

Sadly my T5's engine compression doesn't so it's currently in my private hospital awaiting an operation ! (don't think turning up to a T5 meet in a Renault Clio diesel would be a good idea !)
