Volvo 760 TURBOT DIESIAL. Shiters opinions?


Recommended Posts

:mrgreen:

 

Compared to a naturally aspirated B230 redblock, the B280 PRV gives only marginally better performance and returns 10MPG less !

 

I'd still have a PRV, but it would have to live in the back of an Alpine, not in the front of a boxy Volvo !

You could fly down with the SVM next month and make it a 2x 760 turbo return to Scotland.

Aye cheers Captain Kirky.

 

56 all the way, and a dog burger every 4.5 hrs. Smashing.

I don't have a passport atm, so flying is out. I think.

 

Anybody want anything taking to Londonish? From Fife or Edinburghish? Day insurance is cheaper than public transport...

Pay Adrian to bring it back...

That might work. Depends if he (and by implication) Dave and Dave's mate are up for it.

Very much depends if I can scrape the pennies together in the first place. If I can get some cash for bridging the T5, and tax/insurance aren't too horrendous, then maybe.

We need pix of you in full beard mode tipping veg into the vulva at a morrisons or tescos!

Is this getting bought, then? Excellent, I've been preaching the gospel of D24 powered volvos for years.

Not by me it won't. Sorry to be a virtual tyre kicker, but having been to the cash machine, ahm oot. I'm actually potless.

 

I'll let you know if the T5 is going over the bridge Richard, you'll be welcome to scavenge what bits you want. Same for anyone who fancies bits from it!

 

Until then, happy new year. I'm going to get fucking ratarsed and watch Abba on the gogglebox.

I've seen the pics, and put in a derisory offer...... It just looks so nice!

Auto eh? I thought it was a 4sp with overdrive! Seller isn't very car savvy to be fair.
