Yep it was a terrible investment for them but it can mean a nice luxobarge for me at relatively low cost

The Lancia Thema has a serious whiff of Chrysler 300C off it. With that said, the Lancia looks a lot more appealing to me eye.

They are essentially the same car

My Polestar V60 that I got a month ago, complete with freshly refurbished wheels, I really love this car.

Nice and as a compete BMW fanboi I can also say that is a seriously cool car.

That Volvo is class, such a sleeper. Nice choice. For those that don't know it has a 6 pot turbo petrol, 350ish bhp and 4wd. I would doubt if there are any Irish ones with the tax on them.

Thank you! I got it while I'm stuck here in England for a while, It hurt me enough to pay tax on a 2007 2.2.

Don't think there is any on Irish plates. The newer 2.0 is reasonable to tax in Ireland I believe, but it just doesn't sound the same. Its rare over here too. Had to wait ages before the right one came up for sale.

The front needs some attention and it needs a good service having been lying up for about 4 years but it’s very original and should clean up well.

Volvo make the best sleepers. Unless it was parked up and you spotted the front calipers you wouldn't look twice at it. Nice looking car still and all.

Whats the stuff on the grill? Looks like a sensor or something.

Need to give it a clean inside and out.
I'll take proper pictures then.
Needs new tyres, tie rod ends and rear brake discs.

Completely agree. I have a 3 series estate, and BMs equivalent to that I presume would be a 340i, but that Polestar is ten times cooler, and I like my BMs.

The S60 and (and probably V60) has had autonomous braking since 2012. I guess it’s for that. There’s also a sensor in the windscreen.

The adaptive cruise and auto brake radar is “hidden” behind that black panel on the grille.

I like it’s somewhat low key looks. An m140i or a 340i estate were the other cars on my list if I couldn’t get the Volvo. I love the look of BMWs, especially newer ones. They are so immensely common here though, especially the best looking blue m sport estates.

Savage looking bus for an ordinary car. Saw one just like it in Carrickmines this afternoon. Had to do a double take to confirm what it was.

It won't be aneasy sell (as you know yourself ) there are buyers out there for cars like R32s though, right time and place and all that. What would you replace it with ?

I test drove a Mk7 R recently and that would more than suffice
I'm not in a rush so will wait for the right R to become available (ie: Blue with Pretorias and Nav)

Is that emissions based for tax? How much is it?

You could stick it in the garage until it becomes a classic. Only 19 years left to wait.

It won't be 3 door I'm afraid have to make so compromises in that regard

It's 1800 a year on the older tax system. It was more expensive o the new system!
