Ex850R I like it , I wonder how painting the turret would look all together with boot n bonnet? Tossing up to do just turret on my Wagon in gloss black.....
SPT940 Nah, black vinyl on the wagon. Hatch finishing point a bit tricky though. Matt black on th e sedan bonnet, turret, & boot. blends in nicely with the black window sills.
Ex850R Upper pat of hatch can be black as it has spoiler , taillights have break line between upper and lower for side black bit aft of side window. Going onto front guards is interesting...
AshDVS I had a drive of The Moose this morning - good fun to drive, feels really good and positive, no slop clunks or bangs, predictable over little undulations despite being firm. Sometimes you can forget how good a 240 can be if you dont drive one in a while. It's nice to be reminded again. :)

Ex850R Love this green car and what has been done to it so far , makes me want a green Wagon again , 245 in this green!
A_Volvo_Driver You'll get to see it soon enough Les. I haven't driven it since the near-boilover on Monday - I'm getting withdrawals. Such a fun car to drive :) I haven't seen another 240 in this colour.
A_Volvo_Driver The thermostat has been replaced, as well as the in-tank fuel pump. Getting the little fuel hose back on was an absolute bitch!
A_Volvo_Driver After I drove up to Griffith the other week, I came home with a leather interior for the car. Thanks to Mike and a big thanks to Ryan who carted them from Sydney to Griffith for me. I spent a few hours on Saturday cleaning them up and installed them today. They're far from perfect, but for their age they look pretty good. They are very comfortable too, so is a big upgrade on the velour that was in it before.
