Optional extras

Thanatos · Oct 19th, 2013, 19:07

So what features has your car got that are volvo optional extras that are rare or different

My v70 has the brake light in the rear spoiler I know of acidic Davey's side steps on the v70awd

Mine also has the auto dimming rear view mirror that wasn't strictly an option on my car

So what you got

I've got genuine wind deflectors too and a crappy luggage net to stop your balls rolling around in the boot. All these bits were sourced and fitted in 2010. I don't think I've ever seen a pic of another car with the sill protectors, that's why I wanted them when I saw them in the accessory brochure!

The C70 though just has the standard sort of bits you'd find on a high spec GT, nothing I haven't seen before.

I want the sill protectors when I can get around to ordering them as they look so cool

My C70 is the late GT but not sure what were extras really ?

I ve got the auto dipping mirror and the bass cut switch in the back if they were once extras, dunno ?

My 850R has those funny transparent water deflectors up the sides of the windscreen, I've never seen another set

Iirc there not supposed to be transparent mine has the runners on the screen edge to stop water from being pushed into the drivers window

These are they're made from the same perspexy stuff the wind deflectors are made from................I'll see if I can find a pic
