Volvo V70 D5 185bhp, Ocean Race Limited Edition
ONE LADY OWNER!!!!
160000 miles
you and nick buying volvos.. is there something you're not telling us?
Shut up Fwankle.
And yes, all about the Volvos!
Sweet colours on those volvos
bitsssss
(there's a few more wheels in the garage)
Exciting stuff Stephen can't wait for more updates. Should only take you a weekend, a couple sets of hands, and a few beers lol.
Nice volvos here
Cool stuff happening on the Subie Stephen!
Meanwhile, cleaned the wintery crap out of my car, and discovered that my drovers side door hasnt survived good, and needs welding.
Wich paint will it be on corolla?
Not really sure yet, I had to ditch the "Army Green" as i saw another Corolla like this already painted with that color
But ill come up with something that stands out of the usual matte black crap nonsense that is overused here
Keep it stock. Getting rarer and rarer lol
Too late to keep it stock, every panel is different colour cause the previous owner fixed the rust problems a little, thats why im planning to paint it
And its definitely not rare here, i can count up to 10 in a range of 10km where i live.
Why not get it painted properly in a nice metallic color, that'll be unlike what the others have got. A deep blue or red, or a nice shade of grey is always good
It would cost me too much, and im not planning on keeping this car long-term. It also will not pass the next MOT inspection due to cracked and scratched windshield, rust on the body thats unfixable (around the windscreen) and front right wheel bearing. Ill just drive the car until it dies or the MOT ends. The car is not in good condition either, lots of dents that id have to fix.
Its just not worth it for me to do a total professional paintjob on it, id never get my money back when selling it as id have to fix so many problems that id spend WAY over what the car is worth really (About 300-400€ atm just for the 9 months of MOT alone).
Meh, those old toyotas last forever, you just need a good guy that can get it through the inspection, at least that how it works here lol. The Escort I drive is so rusted through, that the passenger side floor mats are completely stiff in the winter because of the moist lol. Great car for dirt roads though

You live in a better place than we do if a Toyota like that is not
every other car. Although luckily people also build them properly, with 4A-GE's and turbos.
