Shitting in the shallow end. *Arse friends Electric*

[LessThanEqual]

Not an early start this moaning. Even the hairy alarm clock slept in.

Silly dog.

 

 

Shift because the game is afoot!

 

 

Assemble some pointless items that will not be needed*

No breakfast as the PC stands at zero and I don't wish to give my unruly digestive system more ammunition with which to ambush me.

Nice T440p.

[Jim Bell]

Sorry for the silence. I've been having a fucking mega time driving. This car is epic. Only half way home but I went the very long way.

[Jim Bell]

 

 

Car is Turbo.

 

 

Destination was Carlisle.

That Direct Injection typeface reminds me of something Swedish but I can't find any pictures online to show my working.

[Ohdearme]

Harratts implies a Vlovo type vehicle?

 

I have an idea what it might be.

[mrbenn]

850 T5R?

[Shirley Knott]

Harratts implies a Vlovo type vehicle?

 

 

 

Yes, I'd agree.

 

I think I know what this might be

 

Definitely not a T5R though. Master Bell has already confirmed it's either small, French, or diesel. It's clearly not small or French....

I was thinking 480ES Turbo bit the rear window is wrong.

[Jim Bell]

Pez shot.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Volvo is correct. Five finger-banger tdi

[mrbenn]

Lovely.

 

I do slightly hang my head in embarrassment at my earlier guess, though in my defence the engine sounds amazing.

Great cars. I don't know why I sold my one (or the 850 either) as both would have been perfect.

 

Hope you enjoy it.

[SRi05]

Hnnnggghh etc

[garbaldy]

Very nicely done.

I really must try one of these before they're all gone, I bet you had a better journey back than I did.

[Shirley Knott]

Giddup!

 

That looks properly class, 100% approval here. A menacing symphony of evil in that black colour if ever I saw one too.

 

Hopefully this one wins your heart and becomes a keeper, if not then dibs/multiple randoms please.

[Jim Bell]

Just home now.

 

It's amazing. Thoroughly enjoyed driving it home and giving it a boot.

 

It sounds like a dump truck but actually shifts pretty well when you dig the spurs into its ribs.

 

It rides pretty well for its age and the anchors plant well. So far, everything works bar the sunroof. Which is ideal as I hate sunroofs.

 

The lad that was selling it was doing the water pump on a diesel BMW when I pulled up. He knew his cars and talked me round the car. Seemed like an A1 FELLA so I had a quick looked round it and payed out for it. It wasn't cheap but I reckon it was a bargain.

 

Some pics.

BLACK VOLVO

 

Very nice. Sounds gorgeous. Nice footwell trays too.

[Saabnut]

Wow! It must be October already! Hope we had a good summer!

 

Not much over 2 weeks ago, whilst I was collecting a smoll car, I was talking to the seller (coincidently going by the name JB) who assured me that as he had sold the excess motor carriages, he was going to take a minimum of 6 months break from buyage of chod. Obviously this is going as well* as my fleet reduction!

 

Top purchase Mr Bell.

We are both happy failures man.

 

For now anyway!

If it's any consolation Sam, I saw my sister-in-law today and she is thoroughly enjoying your old V70.  Does need a wash though!

[HMC]

That looks sensational! The colour suits it perfectly, Seem to have a lovely drop of paint on it.

Yeah, it doesnt look too bad with 2kg of bird shite cleaned off it.

That tow bar is perfect for parallel Parkers that should know better.

Its a analouge parking sensor.
