Well, here I am with my third T-5.
I've had her for just over a month now and we're getting on nicely, so I treated her to a quick spruce up since the weather was fine this afternoon.
So far I have done a few bits to her, mostly stage zero bits and an 850R Clutch kit.
Nice. That looks very clean, inside and out.:B_thumb:
Also did the rear main oil seal while the gearbox was out. I forgot to Hoover inside!!
Looking nice and clean !!
Hi Bruce Looks like a nice clean car you have there do you have any plans for it :) Russ

New pictures to follow shortly...
Wheels look good Bruce, but needs an r front bumper on it and lowering. Is there a crease or something in the nearside front wing at the door edge?

Very unsightly, but I'll get it repaired or replaced at some point in the future as it's only bent metal.
Looks nice, the comets look well on the car too.
Yes, I agree they do look well. Whilst I am here, Andy, you really do need to sell your car to me!
Update:
New N/S/F wing fitted
850 R front bumper fitted
V70 Rear Lights fitted
Next on the list is FK Silverline Coilovers and turbo back exhaust system!
The car is looking well Bruce! Its amazing how much of a difference an R front bumper makes to the overall look of the car. It never ceases to amaze me! A brilliant colour match too. I am looking into a turbo back exhaust system for my next motor. Obx do a really nice system without cat for £250 on ebay http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/OBX-TURBO-BACK-TURBOBACK-EXHAUST-VOLVO-850-C70-V70-S70-_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQhashZitem5ade9684adQQitemZ390281462957QQptZMotorsQ5fCarQ5fTruckQ5fPartsQ5fAccessories
Thanks buddy. Yes, the OBX system seems to be the best bang for buck right now. Currently at £220 with the exchange rate, even if it cost £150 to get it here and £100 tax, its still far cheaper then a a custom turbo-back or Ferrita/Jetex system with the added bonus of I can add a 16/18/19T with angled flanged without getting re-work done to the exhaust or buying more downpipes.
Looking good Bruce.
Crappy iPhone pics again, 18" Pegs fitted with 225/40/18
Slight rubbing on full lock, will see how we go when she is dropped 60mm ;)
The car is looking really good now
Bruce, I see you've removed the headlamp washer arms. You can order the headlamp trim panels without the holes in them from Volvo. IIRC they take a week or so to get, but they come already painted & cost approx £30/pair.
