Hero spec achieved.
Jim how much of this could you be arsed with without having Craig on hand? Genuine question. I'd love to do summit like this in the future but i could see it being a pain in the arse doing all on the drive/knowing f**k all about anything to do with boost/volvos/much

I wouldn't have got anywhere near how it is now without having @craigyt on hand. He just cracks on and if he doesn't know something he has a go and it tends to work out!

I can do the very basics with cars but that's it so if I'd of tried to do this myself I'd of just about managed to fit the manual boost controller!

I'm better at signing the cheques than getting my hands dirty.

I never knew Kim Jong Un drove a Volvo.

Little moment today. Coming out of mcds after buying a coffee and a guy in a supra waves at me and gives me respect for the Volvo.

Feeling like a boss I decided to give it some beans for him when I left and try get my drift on.

I got a little excited, put on two much gas and ended up facing the wrong way in the middle of the road facing the wrong directing.

Supra guy pisses himself.

Moral of the story - pride comes before a fall.

Just saw it on ebay! Really wish I had the cash to spare, I'd snap your hand off. Its a brilliant example.

Good luck with the sale.

Swap offers....

Nice bit of rust on the front arch of the nova. Dread to think what the backs are like.

 

[bashracing]

I may as well put my offer out there, it's all I have, but here goes

 

[Welsh.Dan]

Omg I remember that view master!

I can't see the volvo hanging around for long. Looks really good and there can't be many tidy ones about now.

 

[S-JM]

Over 202 watching as well, and shares to quite a few FB pages too. Jim, your voicemail must be on fire!

 

[leeds_182]

First viewer tonight. They thought it was too low.

I didn't think there was such a thing.

 

[Nick_Leeds]

Pah!

 

[leeds_182]

Deposit taken.

 

[leeds_182]

Straight through the mot today.

I've decided to keep it in the end!

Will be selling the 850r instead!

 

[S-JM]

What's the reason behind that then? 850R not doing it for you?

940 is just so much cooler (imo).
