Just bought another 850 manual wagon t5 as my daily driver, at £300 I couldn't resist. Only doing short commute and the occasional outta County run, love my full fat L322 but even on LPG it is more for towing and posh trips out. I am going to keep the 850 as a scruffy sleeper. Regretted selling my last one, so not planning to sell anytime soon! Such a hoot to drive!

I acquired an S60 2.0T a couple of weeks back as a daily.
Few marks on the body so certainly not precious about car park dings etc.
Mot is due in Feb, so long as no big bills come itll be getting a remap.

My trusty S70 T5 Auto SE used 3 or 4 times a week, mainly local stuff and my other car the rest of the time, and CCM dual sport when its sunny! showing as only 11 left of that exact model on the road. Only 98K original miles with proof, spent a few quid rebuilding it, new engine all new suspension and brakes, now just good fun driving it and its driven like it should be (where legal) occifer
