RichL Posted June 13, 2016 Share Posted June 13, 2016 Ah Saffron Gold iirc. I like it, often spec'd on the T5 and the S/V70 R. Looked good with the big anthracite alloys. Only one I ever drove was a cabrio and I thought it was pretty shit to be honest, serious scuttle shake, I would think the coupes are much better.

warninglight Posted June 14, 2016 Share Posted June 14, 2016 Can't load the photos at work, but from the description I need it to park beside my saffron V70R, to make it stand out in the village a bit less. I also had a C70 coupe, fantastic cars, mine was the T5 auto in coral red (Identical to the 90s 'Saint' one) which I loved. Big LPG tank in the boot made it a bit useless a bit too often, so I sold it, and the next owner killed it. Fantastic car though. Could never really tell what way the suspension was meant to be set up, firmer than the saloon/estates which ruined the ride a bit, but probably still a bit too soft. Mine was GT spec which I think had different suspension to other C70s mind. Little bit more wind noise and more 'hand-built' feel in places, but I so would... 155V6, Banger Kenny and sporty-shite 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

warninglight Posted June 14, 2016 Share Posted June 14, 2016 Alas I think the option for me will be to sell the estate and replace it with some hydropneumatic and French and not orange (because they didn't do them in orange) I wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone on here, can't go wrong at that price! sporty-shite 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sporty-shite Posted June 19, 2016 Author Share Posted June 19, 2016 So I thought it might be more beneficial to swap or PX for something smaller and more economical. Also reduced the price a bit to help it along. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like that That wouldn't work. FATHA_SPORTY has got the horn for the Prelude, so if I get it, it would be donated to him. Always worth throwing these ideas out there, though!

eddyramrod Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 Is there any way of working my Saab into that mix so that I end up with either Volvo or Honda? Thought not, oh well, worth a go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
