Hi All,
Been stalking this forum a little leading up to finding my next Volvo (first car was 760 sedan that unfortunately caught fire and burnt out in 2006 ,temporarily reducing Volvo lust), a '90 build 245 in silver.
It has a couple of things to tend to like a tablespoon of oil dripping onto the exhaust at shutdown creating a smoky exit, sometimes reminding me of past 760 tragedy, which is possibly due to a saggy engine mount or seal or something :/. I've not got a lot of knowledge on the workings of vehicles so this beast will be my education.
Front seats could also do with a replace of insides or complete rip-out and replace with fresher models in the same blue.
I have also been interested in a subtle suspension upgrade like this

But before all of this will most likely get a service at a local Volvo dealership in Newcastle, who have a great rep working on older models, and looking out for stuff that I someone as under educated as myself would miss.
Anyways, just thought I'd introduce myself and let you know that there are some bits I will probably throw up in the wanted section regarding trim items from interior and exterior and such.
Thanks
Mat
