CreepingJesus Posted February 22, 2014 Posted February 22, 2014 Woohoo! Moar Volvosaurii Scotoshiticus!It did appeal to me too, I quite fancy trying a diesel one. davidfowler2000, brickwall, cms206 and 1 other 4
320touring Posted February 22, 2014 Posted February 22, 2014 Glad you bought it,saves me having to do it:) Now I just need to resist a certain Citroen with a gas addiction.. brickwall 1
mercrocker Posted February 22, 2014 Posted February 22, 2014 Gets tapped up the arse by a Renner Ten?
morris_ital_lover Posted February 22, 2014 Posted February 22, 2014 It flew... Because some nugget mixed crossplys and radials? Banger Kenny 1
brickwall Posted February 22, 2014 Posted February 22, 2014 They need to hurry up with the new bridge already.
Lacquer Peel Posted February 22, 2014 Posted February 22, 2014 Hattie Jacques. CreepingJesus and brickwall 2
mercrocker Posted February 22, 2014 Posted February 22, 2014 If its the film I am thinking about probably a blonde bird with big knockers and a pelmet skirt.... brickwall 1
mouseflakes Posted February 22, 2014 Posted February 22, 2014 Something familiar about this image. Oh yes..... robinmasters, cobblers, drum and 14 others 17
anonymous user Posted February 22, 2014 Posted February 22, 2014 If all the Volvos are in Scotland it probably explains why I can't find a niceish, pre-catalyst, 240 estate in Wales
eddyramrod Posted February 22, 2014 Posted February 22, 2014 Not all of them, but the one in the Lakes isn't a 240. It could be available if enough £20 notes are waved in my direction...
Lacquer Peel Posted February 22, 2014 Posted February 22, 2014 The latest from Richard, no word since. I hope it isn't badly BROKEN.
RichL Posted February 22, 2014 Posted February 22, 2014 Nice one mate, well bought. Plenty of life left in the old beast. Always prefered a late 850 over an early x70
r.welfare Posted February 22, 2014 Posted February 22, 2014 I'm impressed you changed timepieces during the journey. binhoker668 1
RichL Posted February 22, 2014 Posted February 22, 2014 No difference at all chassis/engine wise. Just prefer the looks of the 850
RichL Posted February 22, 2014 Posted February 22, 2014 Note the size of the bonnet in the last pic. I've carried a few of those with some help. Not as heavy as you'd think, just HUGE.!
CreepingJesus Posted February 22, 2014 Posted February 22, 2014 850s and Phase 1 x70s are completely interchangeable mechanically: only the interiors and some body panels changed.
Spiny Norman Posted February 22, 2014 Posted February 22, 2014 Looks smart with those T5 wheels, I'd have considered this myself had it come up at the right time.
Minimad5 Posted March 2, 2014 Posted March 2, 2014 Rather jealous & wish i got my ass into gear sooner.Well done that man ! Richard 1
RichL Posted March 2, 2014 Posted March 2, 2014 Front door check straps on the 800 series are rubbish. Used to sell loads, I think the replacements were modified at some time.
jonathan_dyane Posted March 2, 2014 Posted March 2, 2014 Looking good! I'm really glad you are enjoying it. It scrubs up lovely too; I'm ashamed to say I never washed it. Richard 1
