The new wagon needs a nice wash/clay bar/wax.... then I could post up some pix of it.

Here is my '84.5 242TI

Man i never knew there was such Volvo love in the US!!! I've always liked them (always loved the 480 coupe, and the 850 T5R Wagon in Yellow with black wheels is BADASS).

I just remembered this from a few years ago though. Some of you have probably seen it. It's done by a company called Mynheer in the UK (which, surprisingly is no longer in business lol)

Note the 96-98 Morette Civic extremely ill-fitting headlamp transplant:

I did find some more pics but this i couldnt upload them for some reason. Then it underwent a bit of a make over (Peugeot 406 headlamps - for some reason... again, they couldn't flow less if they tried), crazy bumper etc

Here's a link though: (Click on the pics) Gotta love the (bad) Civic Altezza rear light transplant too

http://au.geocities.com/ozbrick850/gall-weald.html

I can't quite decide which is my favourite part of it... Think it's the airbrushing... no, the spoiler.

eddiecut · 12-12-2006, 11:11 AM

does anybody in here have a 2005-2006 volvo s60 R?? I have the option to buy one from a guy at my work, its black with tan leather, such a nice car, his lease is pretty cheap if i want to buy it before that also... its so tempting, anything i should know?

vietjdmboi · 12-12-2006, 12:29 PM

you can check to see if there are any codes.. you do this by holding down the "read" button at the end of the turn signal switch and pressing the inner fog light button twice. it will say "checking DTCs". give it about 10-15 seconds then press the "read" button. as you press the "read" button it will say ex. CEM, ECM or TCM ready meaning there are no codes but if it says ex CEM, ECM or TCM set then you have a code in that module. pm me if you have any questions.

mugen boy · 12-12-2006, 12:36 PM

i like volvo's

mr.sedan · 12-13-2006, 03:32 AM

the volvo moose has been a symbol for a very long time. i dont know what it stands for but notice how most euro companies have an animal as their logo. lambo, ferrari, volvo has the moose, i cant think of any others right now but ya. im reppin the moose too...

Notice my JDM lug nuts

CblP s40 · 12-13-2006, 05:06 AM

This car is beastlier than before, new rims are much better but I don't know about the white.

I jsut have a stock s40, takes money to actually modify them, moey I don't have.

Volvo's are very underestimated, 240's were intended for 500k - 1000k miles! The s60R, s40 T5 (2004.5 +), xc90 v8 are beasts and there are many more which come fast from the factory.

nathanong87 · 12-13-2006, 05:14 AM

too sicck

mr.sedan · 12-13-2006, 06:04 AM

dont forget to mention the new S80 V8 and the C30

HAHAHA i was just going to quote you that some guy goes to my school down in MD with that same ride... and its ****ing sweet. But it is u man just saw the tags on that one pic! Nice job

Splat · 12-13-2006, 06:39 AM

Anyone have parts hook-ups? I never really thought much about e-codes for my T5 until Mrs. Splat got her S40. The jewelled lights look sooo much better.

Got a brochure/test drive invite in the mail from Volvo this week. That's a beautiful car.

vietjdmboi · 12-13-2006, 07:12 AM

what kind of parts do you need? i work for volvo so i got pretty much everything in front of me.

Splat · 12-13-2006, 07:41 AM

I've heard the '01-02 C70 headlights will fit my '99 S70, and are the new design. What do those run?
