well im open to ideas on what to do with it 
reading that home to rome thread with the old volvo in it might give me some inspiration, but basically its gonna be a spare car for me to thrash around in and thrape to death, and maybe for my dad to use now and again.

well my journey to work, is all of 1 mile and about 3 mins, during that time, my type r doesnt even get warmed up, and im thinking even though the engines are bulletproof, its un-nessesary wear and tear on the engine, so if i can take the volvo to work more often than not, it will save wear on the type r. I'll use the Type r for everything else.
yeah but im disabled, cerebal palsy, so i cant walk far at all.
Just been out for a spin in it, its a right laugh, had a few sideways moments round roundabouts, but only because its wet and provoked. goes pretty well too once wound up superb fun for £100

Still not bad for £100. Ive had 2 new front tyres put on, and got a new fuel sender off ebay for £15, and thats really all that needs doing to it. Everything else works - heated leather seats, electric windows/sunroof, electric mirrors,heated windscreen. radio. The seats are the most comfy ive ever sat in too.

ive decieded i dont really use it enough to warrent it sitting around so im gonna sell the Type R and just use the Volvo to get to work and back. Thinking of getting the Morgan ive always wanted - for the weekends and nice weather too - it wont depriciate like the Type R, which will take a hit when the new one comes out next year.
