  1. Yeah, it is a great looking color.

     

    What kind of wax did you use on your car? I need to wax mine, but first it needs alot of ScratchX first because it has never been waxed before.

     

    I used something called TurtleWax, not the most cheapest one, but worth it. Remember to first use a high pressure water cleaner to get rid of all of the dirt, then wash it well with water and soap with a sponge. You dont want any sand on your bonnet when your waxing it :cheeky:

  2. To be honest I don't know what engine is in it, I think it is the 2.9 or something like that. I've grown up around Volvos all of my life. The first Volvo I ever saw was a Passion Red 2000 V70 XC (Cross Country). That was the most beautiful Volvo I have ever seen, that and a 2005 V70 R. :D

     

    I don't have any pics of the red one, but here is a pic of my car next to the new XC70.

     

    wow, that blue color is amazing :eek: makes me want one right now :mad:

  3. Wow, it's like a mirror! :eek:

     

    That's why I do it :) Takes a good while though, but it's worth it in the end!

     

    beautiful car after the wax. that reminds me, i need to wax my corolla.

     

    Wax does make a big difference ;) Everyone should be nice to their cars and wax atleast 1 time a year. It will look like new :cool:

  4. Oooo nice Volvo, I remember when we had a 360 Turbo when i was a child, the speed and power was amazing for a car of it's age. My dad's thinking of getting a S80 now, i think i'll stick with my Audi's.

     

    thank you! My dad loves S80's and was about to buy one 5 years ago. nice cars!

  6. That looks very nice, good condition but you really should get rid of (or replace) that tow-bar, lets the car down I have to say. Very nice buy.

     

    Yes, that was the first i thought of when i bought the car. Both my mom and dad has a car with a tow-bar, so i have no problems what-so-ever loaning theirs. And thanks!

     

    I want your car. I love the sound. I didn't expect a volvo to sound like that.

     

    Yes, it sounds very exciting! To be a Volvo, the 5-cyl is awesome :thumbsup:

  7. i wouldn't know what a 5 cyl would sound since i don't know any. :p

     

    Maybe this one will show you then :D

     

    Nice Volvo! I come from a family that loves Volvos, we have two. :D

     

    They great cars, but I hope the new ones last as long as the old 240s.

     

    Thanks! Cool, Volvos is getting more and more popular maybe :cheeky:

     

    So is this you becoming active again Celt? :p

     

    Nice Volvo anyhow and it looks in great condition also!

     

    Hmm, active..:p I'm not playing TDU anymore if that's what you mean, but i might post in this forum daily if i want to :) And thanks!

     

    Very nice volvo and very well kept. ;)

     

    Merci ;)

     

    Volvos are great cars, we've had 2, I want one. :P

     

    Be sure to check out 850's if you're looking for one!

  8. Sweet Volvo. Swedish engineering

     

    Thanks. Yes, Swedish never fails :thumbsup:

     

    Nice sound. Was the rev limiter removed and what Bimmer did you have before you crashed it?

     

    That wasnt me in the video, but i have the exact same sound! And yes, I've removed the rev limiter :cool:. I had a 1999 BMW 525TDS chipped to 225HP :ill:. So it was a leap backwards really..

     

    hey celt. haven't seen you on the forums for a long time. :p

     

    nice car there. :) is it me, or does it sound like a V8? :p

     

    What's up Rb26DETT :) Yeah, I've been gone for a long time :cheeky:

    You might get it to fake the V8 sounds if you're good, but mine sounds just like a 5-cyl should do :D

  9. Scaleopdriver's Volvo 850 - Sold! New car is here! :D

     

    I got this one after i crashed my Bimmer (i had like no money..almost) and I'm actually very satisfied with the shop! The Swedish know how to make quality cars :) It's a 1992 Volvo 850 GLT with 185 BHP (stock is 168, and somehow this one has more after i dyno'd it) No rust, no problems whatsoever, just a car in perfect condition!

     

    Just washed and about to start polishing;
