Recently I bought Satellite wheels for it, which I think look pretty decent on the S80 (crappy iPhone pic):

Going to get this car in the north of Sweden and drive it all the way back to The Netherlands (2500kms) in a few weeks time:

Those wheels look very nice on the S80, and the ones you've got on yours Rob :mrgreen:

I used to park next to a 760 just like that one in my old complex parking lot every day, and a 960 would park next to mine. It's kinda funny how Volvo drivers all try to park next to each other if they see another like car :mrgreen:

All of the really "cool" pictures (aka Volvo covered in 3 feet of snow) are on my girl friend's camera. The pictures I posted are a little missleading as to how severe our winter really was.
