since james put up the pics of his 740, i thought i would share mine with you

yes the plate is swedish, and yes its illegal

oh, the interior photo was taken before i bought the car

the photos of the dash is a bit pants as i took it on my pocket thumb cam, and yes the car is horrendously filthy in the welsh photo, but i actually cleaned it last night for the 3rd time in 5,500 miles

plans for her include fixing my now bost drivers heated seat, fixing my broken dash dials, im actually thinking about some wood trim!?!?!?! yes seriously! and i need to finish tinting the back windows, then some lowering, and suspension upgrades, and maybe sticking my twin carbs on

theeeeen, its ripping apart everything for a sseeerious overhaul of all the old bushings, shocks, engine mountings, and a full proper valet, of the acutally quite clean interior!

The interior looks super nice. Is the car a GLE?

logicaltuning · Apr 15th, 2006, 13:33

cheers, no its just a GL estate

got all my interior bulbs in blue led now, and the dash clocks are all functional again!!!!

unfortunatly i lost around 500 miles

as i had un-functioning clocks in for just over a week

what is it with volvo owners trying to put as many miles on their cars as possible lol

Whats that on your dash with all the keys on?

logicaltuning · Apr 15th, 2006, 22:55

its a genuine 1980s car phone!

took it out now as it was too big !

caar doesnt look like that now, some ****** chav through a brick at it just a pierced the door skin to the passenger rear door

to say im angry is an understatment, only washed the car thouroughly today, and my mate 10 mins before commented how 20 year old paint could look so good

now ive got to seal, fill and repair the wound and get my mate to respray the bottom half of the door,

luckily the paints soo good on the rest of the car the colour shouldnt be too far off original

grrrrrr

can you get touch up sticks as i could do with one. The paint is perfect apart from the obvious stone chips on the bonnet, i want to fix these if possible.

logicaltuning · Apr 16th, 2006, 11:27
