Yes, there are a few red 850rs floating about. I have considered them, but my heart is on the gul.

Thanks anyways.

Just stumbled across it at the back of the (independent volvo) garage. It's got a private sale sticker on so its likely.

I'm not really up to speed on the 850 (got a V70r), but if anyone needs me to take a look at it then you've got about an hour before my cambelt is finished.

Interesting market at the moment with these.
Prices have inflated and cars seem to stick around for a long time too, coming on and off sale.
Saw a very similar red R to this go at auction for a lot less than advertised here (could been the same car) not sure from the one photo.
Quite a few jap imports for sale .... are these considered a risky purchase? I don’t know.
Good luck with the search!

There are a few guys on here that have got Jap imports with no probs at all. So I guess they can be a good purchase.
