Hello and Thank You

May 4th, 2003, 15:34

Readers of this forum may recall my request for advice regarding a 850 T5 which I was interested in buying. Thank you to all who made comments and even though I secretly new I would end up with this car I did appreciate the help. This was the model badged Turbo not T5. Well it is now sitting on the drive and when I get it taxed I will be exploring the potential. I have driven Volvo for 29 years and had a total of 12 models. The most powerful was a 1974 164e manual with overdrive. A 6 pot 3000cc beast which always gave a good run at the lights. However being so old we were still running on standard tyre sizes and bog standard brakes so stopping became rather hairy to say the least. I think at 47yrs I am ready to play...have some fun...I am sure you know what I mean. So may I take this opportunity to say hello and I do hope I can contribute to this forum.Finally I do like a dabble on ebay...at the moment I do have some sets of genuine Volvo Microfiche slides for various models including 850, S40, V40, S70, V70 & C70...any good??
