I'd be quite happy with that.

Sump gaskets are still available from Volvo, not obscenely priced either. Bit of a TWOT to do, but possible with the engine in situ.

 

I have a load of cruise control parts from a 960 I just broke. I have the different wiper stalk, the diaphragm thing and throttle wheel. I'll have a look at the parts and see if it's all there. It works on engine vacuum BTW!

Only 13 pin electrics are testable... he was after some jaffa cakes methinks.

Any ideas why rear wiper keeps stopping in center position?

Under NO circumstances take it to Dr*yton, to have the fault fixed

(Unless you can wait for just over a month with no rear wiper, ooh and Fawked electrics so the boot won't lock ... got fixed in the end mind)

Wondering about maybe raffling this,i assume that its price divided by number of tickets.

Yep. £6.50 a ticket gets you £383.50.

 

Not that I'm excited or nothing.

I was half serious about part-exing a goona if you wanted it?

How bad are these things on fuel? memory seems to say about 25mpg?

If you decide to raffle the Volvo, please put me down for 2 random tickets.

I'll have a random, please.

 

It's only polite that I enter a raffle for a Volvo, bearing in mind my nationality. I also love the colour of it.
