I can confirm that it drives well, boosts, GLFs, is comfy and the heater is toasty warm!

Posted

This all going jolly well :)

 

I missed this first time round.  Put me down for two (and have another bump).

 

Was well impressed with the 6-cyl SVM Volvo Experience at Shitefest and this might make a pleasing change from the Discovery, while being just as useful.  Mrs S tells me she's grown very fond of the Disco though, so something else would have to go.  Or I'll donate it to someone else if I win.  Or something.

 

 

Edit:  I've appended myself down below. (Fnarr fnarr.)

 

This one's the 4 pot turbo Sir Skizz. The 6 pot was the red one last year.

Not quite - see initial post. I'll address the heater's less than toastiness soon. Maybe tomorrow. Maybe even this evening. It's warm enough when above idle but goes less than scorchio when stopped. I suspect plumbing the heater matrix backwards and a decent drive with MOAR REVS than usual will cure it. I may even do the dishwasher tab flush method as endorsed by Mr 320Touring at TTT Solutions (Dunbartonshire) Ltd.

It was warm wnough on the last glf day when we were rowing down the /8th mile!

The Golf went to the rained out GLF mind. The 760 went the day when we had all of the autoshite there. Since then it seems to have gathered a sludge in the matrix so it needs cleaned out.

Posted

Ahh true.

 

I'm aff aww week and unit/hose available-can even supply the dishy tablet:)

Oooooooh. Ye aboot ramorns?

Busy- cx faffery

 

Can get a couple of hrs mon/tue/wed/thu - can do am or early pm (assuming you're backshift?

Posted

Aye. Permanent backshift. S'awrite - I can do it at the house nae bother.

Posted

I sold a Volvo estate to the SVM and they tried to mate it with a bus. Perhaps I should have one of theirs to redress the balance? ;)

In my defence it was also a Volvo :D

 

Can confirm credibility of both seller and 760, it's a decent one with lots of potential.

18 and 26 please.

I'd forgotten about this. Time for a bump seeing as everyone has got over the christmas horribleness of much empty bank accounts.

In Other News...
New NSF tyre fitted after the old one blew out an old repair on the dual carriageway.

Heater matrix flushed out. so burn. much warm. very toast. wow.

 

Also...

If you've gone off the idea feel free to remove your name from the list
