So fresh from a full service etc and with the weather today being quite nice my brother decided to give the car a clean up.. Unfortunately I didn't have my camera on me so you'll have to settle for crappy i-phone camera quality and these shots really don't do the car justice.. lol
Anyone care to guess her current mileage?
very nice, nice stance on it
thats one nice R he as there looks great
That looks pretty low.
I think its on about 140k miles if remember rightly,it is a nice looker indeed,say hi to Jim.Here is my shot.
[QUOTE=T5frankie;601301]very nice, nice stance on it[/QUOTE] I agree! Looks and rides really well. [QUOTE=WOODY T5;601303]thats one nice R he as there looks great[/QUOTE] Quite a complement coming from someone with car like yours :) [QUOTE=LiamT4;601305]That looks pretty low.[/QUOTE] It's certainly low, but oddly doesn't give much ground clearance issues, been like that now for around 2 years. Despite it's low ride height it rides well he's got the rebound rate perfect, no one who has been in it can believe how well it handles either. KW's are definitely the best coil over kit to buy for a Volvo.
Close Kingsford but no cigar ;) It's just clocked on 167,000 miles today!

Very nice, and it does sit nice and low, certainly a nice example of the S70R (is that too many nices lol)
Personally graham, i think your wheels look very nice, the bodywork is also very nice, and your engine bay is nice to, adding all that up and you being a nice chap i say noooo you can never have to many nice's lol :)
2 nice cars, with nice wheels and a nice colour... always nice to see a Saffy :)

[QUOTE=Kingsford G;601710]I`m dreading to c him when he gets old being picky now :D[/QUOTE] What do you mean?? He's old now.... :B_thumb:
That is stunning, wish I could get a ride height like that, bloody nivomats! The paint finish looks fresh & not the miles you said. Give me a few years & I'll be with you boys, my eBay bargain has the potential deep down I hope. Lol
