I may invest in a tweed flat cap and a nice dark brown smoking pipe

Does it have David Dickinson leather?

Yeah, I know what the alloys look like - I just couldnt make out the volvo logo in the center, picture was too dark.

I've always liked these. Is the R the AWD? That's quite a funky gear leaver..

iaind · 15 Dec 2009 at 20:58

Not this then

Just looked at the spec of these... 60 in 5.5 :eek:

Aye, im struggling with the body colour as it is..

The orange interior would have been a bit much...

The manual is 5.7 i think to 60, the geartronic (sp?) is about 7 ish?

Aye, 4wd..

I thought it was an auto at first, but its a 6 speed manual 'spaceball' haha

awesome, but i suspect you'll be on first name terms with the petrol station attendants!

not the nicest colour, but then it's an R special. shame it doesn't have the orange leather

Wow, this thread has surprised me on 2 counts, firstly you can get an A4 3.0 quattro for 5k, and secondly you can get an S60R from a main dealer for under 7.5k!!

I think actually this thread has proved you cant as it was a tarted up nail with a hidden fault, no wonder it was priced for a quick sale

Bad luck on the Audi

But nice one on the Ovlov :cool:

They have... plenty of power

I honestly dont think the dealer knew about the cooling issue. They would have been cagey with my mechanic i reckon... they know each other well.
