Hi there! I've always read the forums, probably over 200 hours of research into my Volvo s70's.
I bought my first 98 Black s70 t5 May 2013, and have since done a Black interior swap, grill lights, red engine block, exhaust, double din, 2 subs, painted black chrome rims, many more and have put 6000km's on it.
My ultimate goal was to find a '98 Volvo S70 T5M SE and finally came across one in early February, and snatched her up. Sold my baby (black car)
My new red/burgundy s70 has bilstein shocks, new rotors, replaced Turbo oil seal, yellow fog lights, HID like halogens, Suede/Leather European R-Interior (swap), with 191,000kms. Tinted (10 and 5%), Thrush exhaust cat-back 2.5 pipe, and tinted tail-llights
I'll be posting pictures, diagrams, and How-To's and being more involved in the community. Take it easy!
Introduction (late)
