true dave,bit dissapointed in mines but my choice to drop to a 2ltr,until fuel prices drop or i win the lotto it will have to be lol.
@dyg thanks but no lol,as much as my gf gives me grief for getting shot of the cat but not the blurple she prefered the black auto that i restored and is still with a friend,i might wait and see if work picks up and maybe get another project......................
Paul - Ahem - 330d next
Beast of a car my old boss had one ridiculously unrelenting torque into comfortably three figures I was lucky enough to be able to use it occasionally.

A colleague of mine had an E92 330d coupé (which he inexplicably traded in for a Focus ST that he was at first disappointed in and over time grew to loath, that got chopped in for an Octivia vRS that's left him cold and wishing he'd just got another Beemer), fastest car I've ever been a passenger in. When he booted it, it genuinely pinned you back in your seat and spread an involuntary cheesy grin across your chops that lasted for at least 10 minutes afer you got out of the car. I'd love one but I'd find it very hard to justify keeping the Cougar if I did, so I elect to just fondly remember it and not tempt myself to 'cheat' on my Cougar with that alluring German mistress..!
That one is a 2.4 Rich, not a true T5 although a 5 cylinder turbocharged engine nothing like the power of the real thing
This is the real thing http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/120896230...X:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1555.l2649#ht_1312wt_1336

I just did a search for 'Volvo' and 'C70' on Autotrader, then refined it by putting 'T5' into the keywords box. Nice plug for your own motor though...
t5s are underated my mates ones flys even tho its the size of a house
They are by people who don't know much about cars most people in the know realise how quick they are and the R awd is Phenomenol.

dont see many of them about been in a 850 t5 and never bin more supprised if thats anything to go by the r must be a rocket. what model is the st focus t5 engine out of?
Detuned for the ST 2.5 T5 engine used in S60 (250) and S60R (300 bhp) and some other Vlovos
