think ive bought a t5 auto pros and cons people its a estate version

 

if its the 850 T5, you'll have 225bhp to play with, the V70 T5 has 240bhp on tap and both spin the fronts up even with the traction control on engines are very strong as most of the older ones you see for sale have done well over 100k

auto's are the box's to have as they are better then the manuals and with subtle mods, the estates can look the business

 

 

Should have bought the R Version

 

not for Ł850 i shouldnt have

 

I rate these cars highly.

If its good enough for th Police to do Phileous Fogg mileage up and down the Mway chasing Scoundrels then its good enough to rip round for some cheap fun.

When my S2 goes end of May then I will buy a V70 T5 as my runaround.

 

Pros
Cheap
Reliable
Quick
Well made

Cons
Flat cap and slippers image (hehe)
You got even less chance of getting a woman than with the EsCos!


Cam

 

They stomp, but agreed they make you look 65...lol

Im still getting one,

 

Look like a hearse and are front wheel drive!
Suppose they must go well but performance isn't everything is it

 

front wheel drive is cool and for a few quid its a quick cheap fast car

 

 

and it wont break like a cosworth will it

 

True that Gus.

They are tank, but they got every optional extra under the sun, and over 220 bhp for less than a grand.

Cant go far wrong.


However Girls dont really drop dead over them/LOL

 

cruise leather air con electric seats abs u name it its got it

 

sorry gus mate, but no matter how much you payed for it , its a big boring volvo with a grandad image and will cost you the earth to run thay weigh tons
cheak its not nicked if you bouhgt it in sheffield
ok for a laff i suppose

all the best mate
andy.. was from woodseats area

 

And all for less than a grand.

Not many cars out there like that is there.

 

forgot to say the ones the cops use are tunned , my mate tryed to outrun a t5 abit back in his cozzy and lost he is banned now

andzz

 

Mate has a black 850r estate ,it lights the wheels up very nicely

 

The fact that they are chipped makes no difference.

The cars have an extra 1/4 of a tonne of gear in the boot, cones, fire extinguishers, first aid kits, spinal boards, computersetc......

Traffic cops can drive.

Plenty of training, thats why they are quick.

 

Gus isnt after girls...he is after a MILF so will be cruising down the local OAP homes in his racey T5.

 

All i can say is you got some bottle to admit buying one..ROFL

 

girlfs dad has a s80 T6 and dare i say its a good car goes well and also handles well for such a big boat

 

grandad russ pipe and slippers in the back

only kiddin mate sounds ok for the brick

andzz

 

should do with a twin turbo 2.9 straight 6 pushing out 280 bhp

 

I have an 850R auto estate for the family car, love it to bits, its such a nice car to drive & a real good cruiser. You can fit a ton of stuff in the boot aswell,very practical & quite fast.

Simon.

 

does it come with the optional whippet in the back.

 

oreeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet ian how are u it will suit the new shotgun to the ground

 

And the R's with their little extra bit of kit and big wheels and brakes.

Nice one.

Any pics of the new Volvo R anyone?

The new Volvo R is a serioous bit of kit.

3 different suspension settings, each with a different map to suit.

Love it.

 

if it doesnt come with the optional whippet i can supply you with a lurcher to catch whatever you miss with the gun.

there is a cracking good clay shoot 1/2 mile down the road from me weds nights and sun mornings you will have to have a run over and we can have a bash.
