True that.

I bought mine for whole £800.

By now:

New brakes (whole lot)
Lots of gearbox fluid
New cambelt+tensioners+pump
3 wishbones
Rear shocks
Front shocks
Spark plugs
2 ignition coils
Bottom gearbox mount
Top engine mount X2
Battery
Cost of Dice
Oils, tyres, bulbs, filters, wipers.. The usual.

And lots of tools, of course.

And I can't help it- I love this car.

Frankly, if I was to change it, there is only one other that I'd like, sometimes I do think about it, and check the web for availability and prices, but this thing is as rare as snakes toenails.

Volvo XC70 3.2 6-pot petrol, automatic, BLACK leather, WITHOUT 4C.
