After I posted this:picture in the 'Show us your ovloV' thread, an old friend who is fanatical about both cars and guitars noted it had to be worth a readers cars thread. I have a thread on the owners club forum which has also turned into a project blog, and never got round to starting one here, so I'll copy as many of the salient points over to bring us up to date..This first Mammoth post will be buying the car, and getting it ready to daily drive...May 6th, 2023:The last one of these I had was back in 2007, when you could buy them for £225 with a long MOT and 4 spare wheels in the back!Havin

Sounds like a fun ownership experience so far - we all love a bit of tinkering!Had to be done really!guitarcarfanatic said: Great cars, really wish I bought a 760 turbo back when I finally sold my last 480 (went for a Peugeot 406 instead which blew the head gasket after a week of ownership and I ended up swapping the engine on my mums drive ).

Next month those patches are getting attacked with a wire wheel, some hydrate 80 and some fresh paint.Error_404_Username_not_found said: What a cool thread. I currently trudge around in a S80 automatic which I dislike more and more each day and I am actively leaning to an old rear drive Volvosaurus as a daily. At my age the next car I buy will probably be my last and I really don't want an EV so a "classic" looks like the way ahead for me, perhaps with stockpiling a few spares in The Shed. Also I'm tired of idiotic contraptions like nanny computers and stupid alarms for everything. I'd rather do my own thinking while I still can. Your adventures have absolutely reinforced my notion of a classic Volvo, but it'll have to
