My Volvo 850 T5r the civic is now gone! (no regrets)

[cantbassed]

Shes in need of a good wash, but this crazy weather this weekend has put me off.

since owner ship, a service, top engine mount and volvo strut brace is all its got from me but to come by the beginning of june, a MTE remap (that would be around 280-300bhp) and a cat back exhaust.

other than that, my civic is now sold and i have no regrets in selling as i love every moment i drive this! i can only imagine the mte map and the new exhaust note will make me grin even more! i tell thee, that the sound of a 5cyl and a turbo is better than the sound of vtec.


comments welcome!

People say Honda's are reliable, I bet this Volvo will out live it.

Always a fan of the Volvo touring cars.

i was thinking of getting blue lights behind the grill, but due to current job circumstances i would be in a lot of trouble.

is it 4wd being an 'R' or is that just the 850 r that are

R is just the spec of the car, of which means it comes with everything for its year.

the 96 850r came with lsd and a bigger turbo.

the R 4wd/awd came with the v70r

mines a 95 t5r which didnt have the lsd nor the bigger turbo but was the top model of it year.
