yep the T-5 engine has huge posibilities and very strong. i think the new focus st,s have the same engine.

Mmmmm....Volvo!

If you do decide to get back in a Volvo don't buy an auto! Was your Gul an auto? It was if I remember right? My V70 is an auto and I think I'd love it even more if it was a manual!

Flooring it is so fun, you can keep you VR6, a Volvo 5-pot is such a fab noise maker :laugh:

If you do get another please don't stick them badge stickers and rear lights on it :sick:

A cc is a good choice in my opinion too, yes some people hate the colour coded interior but for me it was part of the appeal but on that one at £1095 I think there's a bit of negotiation to be done, what ever you choose I hope it's good to ya pal  :wink:

Part of the reason I bought the Golf in June was because fuelling the V70 was just getting annoying so I sorn'd it! Miss driving it mind but at about 22mpg average it hurts the wallet too much to take it anywhere!
