I admire a chap that likes to be different..........so good luck with your project. Just wish I too also had the time (and the money) to make my car stand out from the crowd
Thanks for that.

I understand and appreciate your own personal choice in the V70 as stated above.

It is always interesting to see how different each individuals tastes are in cars. Its what keeps things refreshingly good

The colour had alot to do with it................absolutely nothing to do with it being the top-of-the-range model

well, v70Rs were only avaliable in AWD.. and only in automatic in the states and canada.

That's why i stick with my 850 AWD. I prefer the 850 over v70, but id take a saffron, then again i'd still take a yellow over that!
