And just for fun
Must revisit that stretch very soon. In the orange beast this time.Poor old volvo
Next meet is a definite, 1.4 goodness
Hmm .. when you're done with it, I'll take it for parts. Only thing that isn't so usable for me is the drivetrain, as it differs from the 1.7.
I have this.
And I've also already aquired the engine upgrade for it
Which also had been taken out for a few test days first.

I always liked that car, used to pass by it fairly regularly. Not as eye catching as the Pajero used to be mind you...;)
Going thru some pics on the laptop this evening, found a few of my old cars.
This was the first proper car....
Then decided to be a little more sensible...
Then I went all French...
NO MORE ROAD CARS
And this is how the current car stands....

Dirt bikes and Jim Khana Volvo's - when can ya fit me in for a visit dude?
I don't have any of my bike gear left but I do have a helmet!
As I said, any weekend your free man
That kx125 is an 89 would you believe, show it your foot and off she goes
The rm250, not really pictured is a tempermental thing, gives loads of grief :rolleyes:
@ Marlow, I don't really know if there's much left man. She's fairly gone or it wouldn't see the field. Rot is taking her!
Your machine on the otherhand looks lovely 0 -

Bits and pieces man. Bits and pieces. Like front grille (somebody has nick'ed my Volvo logo in the past) and other various bits.
Yeah .. I got pretty lucky with mine. 4 holes to be welded and it's road worthy. A bit of a dent on one of the rear arches from somebody scraping along something. And a leaky radiator.
Beyond that, it's minty mint with only 55k miles on the clock. Have it about a year now I think and it's been to Mondello 2 or 3 times. Even in standard guise, it's good fun.
I also have the drift/track 75mm lowering kit sitting for it here and a set of 4x100 BMW sunflower rims. Just need to shoe-horn it all in. Commercialize it before that. Proper rollcage needs to be fitted, too.
The 16V R19 with mods means 150 bhp in the 340

Don't know what made me think of it seemed apt
Come on up here any time man, handbrake is going in the 340 so we're stuck with powerover (not successful :rolleyes:) or shift lock (works quite well)! Also there's "just going way to fúcking hard altogether" thats a great one.0 -

I think I see a Fiat Tempra saying hello in there
Sharp eyes you have
It is indeed a Tempra, 1.6 on lpg. Here since 1999. Used as a taxi and I learned to drive in it when I was 12. 196k miles, never failed to start, never a minutes bother. They don't make them like they used to :cool:
It's been off the road since 2005. It's sitting there this past 2 years, was in the garden before that. Needs a lot of tlc at this stage but we'll get round to it
Here it is in better days

Nice Tempra I seen an SW model near Beaumont hosp recently always parked up in someones driveway..
I still get flashbacks to the Gardai righting off a Tempra chasing a joyriider in Darndale one day early 90s Id say..30yrds from me..IIRC the Gardai tried unsuccessfully to fit between 2 heavy fat concrete bollards which the joyriders had slipped through in a narrower car:(....ended up with bits of Tempra all over the road:o0 -

How the feck did you notice that! I've been up there a few times and only noticed it the other day when dgt pointed it out! You'd like what he has in the garage!:)
Hahaha its such a rare thing to see on the roads that after I got rid of mine I've been keeping an open eye out for any others on the road
Right DGT, time for some snaps of the rest of the garage!!!0 -

It was my granny's car. It sat in her driveway for a year after she had to stop driving due to her eyesight. She gave it to me and I resprayed the black plastic parts, got a new front bumper, sprayed it, second hand mirrors, sprayed them, new tyres, new windscreen, full interior valet, did a full decontamination and enhancement on the paint, full service including gearbox oil, NCT'd it and sold it for a healthy profit
When it left our house in 2010, it had 19,000 miles on it :eek:
I loved it though, super little car to drive and went like an absolute rocket! Sadly, the current owner (friend of mine) hasn't looked after it at all and it's in a state again. I'm sorry I sold it at all, let alone to someone who wasn't going to look after it.
I think I have better pictures at home, I'll upload them later on if I remember!0 -
