Today went to a dutch meeting,here's an impression.;) and here she is.:love:

Here's one who knows what he's talking about,do this problem solved.;)

If you don't want heat soak,go for an closed system(induction) I've got an BMC carbon airbox/induction system,sounds great and fully closed,try that.;) walter

Today put "her" on wintershoes:bigsmile: about 15 cm's of snow here(Belgium)and just saw that it's snowing again.:amazed: Now looks like this: gr,walter

After a short silence,it was time to do some things.:toung: New tyres (Falken FK-452)a new steering rack(leaking):mad: and some new discs(V70,302mm) Before realining the wheels decided to drop the car another cm.:love: Now in for an MOT,and ordered a VST spoiler lip,should arrive in 4-5...

In Holland they used to have 911's(targa),they said it was great for arranging traffic(open roof),yeah right,they just wanted to go fast :bigsmile: Then they switched to Volvo's (855 R's,to be specific):love: (have one myself) and i think something like that says it all(R,S6,Amg)etc,etc...

For me a classic contender is the Clio Williams,had one,boy it was fun:D And a point for the Ford is,they come with that great(Volvo)5-pot engine ,lovely sound :love:

I think matey in the Uk they were called Gordini Turbo,and here (on the old continent;) ),there were Alpines,so the same car. Originally 110 bhp(with a weight of just over 800 kgs :D),pocket rockets. gr,walter

I think that's the same as mine(alpine turbo),but wrong wheels and in a colour they never came in :sad2:(black,white and alpine blue)Lots of work needed to get it wright again.Still a nice classic;)

For a sleeper and Q-car,how about a,you've guessed it:D Volvo? Sorry it was stronger than me:cheesy:

I really like classic cars and youngtimers(not all of them offcourse;)) I think they were made in an era where you could reckognize the brand from a distance(nowadays they all look alike:()Fords were Fords,Renaults were Renaults,etc,etc In about 2 years time my daily will be a Yountimer(15)and...

Hello all:p,went to a big Volvo show today(classic+Youngtimers),guess what i found on the site this evening;) gr,walter

Waynne,the older T-5's/T-5R/R(850)are all fwd;),the V70 T-5(classic) is fwd and the R's are fwd or awd(choice)the latest versionssame(V70N)only R models are awd. But since mine is the first R(850)means fwd. Gr,walter

When i just had mine,i noticed that when full accelerating you have to keep both hands firmly on the steering wheel(skating/torque steer):lol: So when to decide how much power/torque is usable for an everyday car i will say this 250hp and 350nm wich comes standard is actually a bit too much...

Nice engine bay;) You could do a swedish flag on the cover,like i did:D gr,walter
