Default Won't be entering any more calender comps..

..unless I can take pics of my Volvo.

Due to our family getting bigger and needing more room we've decided it's time to get something with a bit more space so we've gone and bought a Volvo estate.. Ah well, times change.. My compact went to its new owner yesterday and is very happy after flying halfway across the UK to pick it up and then go for a 5 hour drive back home. I've had it since 2004 and it's served me well - lots of happy memories.



As you can see we've got a little bit more boot space now and there's no need to put roof bars and a box on to put the pram in.

I'll still be hanging around as I have a soft spot for the ti but am having fun in my 225bhp T5 at the mo.. (one day I might get another 318ti who knows...)

Volvo estates are sub zero cool. Just ask Jeremy Clarkson.

sweet ride, there was a guy on a local forum I was on who had a white Volvo wagon, lowered, all tinted out and it was seriously one of the coolest cars I'd ever seen

Cheers folks, have to say it's a very nice ride and very rapid! 2.3 litre turbo

Here it is next to a couple of friends..



This was a Ford RS owners meeting - other clubs were invited as well. When we asked for directions we were told to go down the hill and turn left, they said we were with the other adults lol

Next to ours was a very nice T5-R.

Nice things about these cars is they are very tunable, they start out at 225bhp stock and can easily get 290 bhp with just a remap.
