Spec:

850 Volvo T5 Estate.
7 Seats.
MOT until Sept.
191k miles, just run in.
Tow Bar.
Boost Guage, lol.
Heated, electric seats.
6 CD changer.

Boom.

So far, i've fixed the world's biggest oil leak (it was losing 1.5 litres every 500 miles!) and filled it with fuel (several times). Done about 1500 miles in it and it's not missed a beat.

It's brilliant, i'm sure you'll agree.

Comments and criticism welcome (not that you'll have anything bad to say!)
 
It sure will, along with a go-ped, three people, luggage. In fact, i think there was talk of us taking two fridges.

That's a point, better chuck the ratchet straps in the car on the way home tonight.
 
My mates just bought a ex police one. Excellent busses. I was shocked how well they go. Then again, being owned buy the fuzzy muff before it could be played with.

Not likely to ever happen. I haven't washed a car in approx 18 months.

Can't wait to see it slumped at the side of the autoroute in northern France.

I'm bringing a tow-rope, so when your shed gets a light dust covering and you deem it un-roadworthy, i'll tow it home undercover. x

Common Lolvo thing tbh. Parents used to have a 740GLE, oil light came on, there wasn't any, so called out the AA and watched them put a whole 5 litres in. That just about got it to the bottom of the dipstick. Nice patch of oil under where the car was.

Still, they were fun old buses to punt about.
 
I used to work for Volvo, did my apprenticeship with them at there training centre, seen these things come in with near 300k on the clock. Awesome barges.
 
Cheers guys.

Sam: Unless it's £25-30k, i can't see why anyone spends more than £500 on a car. ;)
 
Love it. Can't wait for Le Mans now. 48 hours until the Norfbest are on the boat.

Failsport will already be there by then iirc?
 
We'll be rocking up at the campsite at about 4pm Thursday afternoon.

(:

Will send a few of you a PM now to get your mobile numeros.
 
Also the go-ped is now definite.. Just finished 'tinkering' (hammer and hack saw style) and it runs and moves and can carry a human + a box of beer - it sounds brutal, looks brutal, has no chain guard so is lethal and smokes a fair bit but it'll do burnouts so i'm not fussed...
 
PMSL. I'm tempted to bring the tools and my Mini-moto. If we can't get it running on the campsite then so be it.
 
DO IT. I want a burn out competition.. I hope those Danish guys I tied trees to peoples cars with last year are there.. They were great fun!
