Replaced the passenger door mirror of my XC70 with a second hand one from eBay. The old one had the rear cover smashed by some muppet who thought breaking mirrors as they walked home from the pub was fun. Was unable to source a new cover and new units are, apparently 269 plus vat and on a 2 month backorder. Hence preloaded. The old mirror is available for parts to anyone who’ll stump up the cost of posting it.

Then fitted a Grom USB and Bluetooth box. Couldn’t get the HU 850 back in with the whole Grom loom and box behind it, so it’s currently sitting where the cup holders belong. It works though - so now I’ve got two phones, a cd changer in the dash and the choice of playing 10 folders from a usb stock or streaming from the mobile. All this just so I can talk to the office without the marginal reception of the original Volvo phone.

Other stuff to do soon

1. Buy vida/dice
2. Read codes - engine service and 4C have flashed recently, the latter only once
3. Replace transmission fluid
4. Oil, filter, fuel filter and air filter change - cabin already done
5. Some bushes
6. ?

7. Buy an Alfa?
