Interesting car... opinions?

martinrpeachey · Nov 25th, 2013, 22:19

Not really my thing - too old for me but I kept hearing about a project car somewhere and last night someone sent me a couple of pics.

What do you guys think?

Gonna ask for more info methinks.

I quite like the BBS alloys. I wonder if they are standard RWD offset.

I thought they were standard on some 900 series?

Can't remember what they were called

They are called RK, I think you could/can get them in the correct bolt pattern and offset.

V40's had a BBS wheel available, and later V70's had a few (Propus C, Triton, Nebula).

You can't really go wrong with BBS.

No No No this simply won't do, far too many non-standard parts, you won't be allowed into the owners club with this monstrosity. I dare say you spin your wheels and wear a baseball cap backwards. Simply won't do, I shall be referring your membership to the owners club commitee for review.

Nice work Mr Smith, good to see someone breaking out of the volvo standard parts only anorak a lot of people wear on here.

I'd estimate she'll be around 160bhp @ 4psi with all the work you've put in
