Nice addition to a clean car!
Current Volvos:
1998 V70 T5, 112k sat 5 years, still in mechanical coma (finally at the top of the pile )
2004 XC90 T6 AWD: 186k, 60 on transaxle ( traded in )
1998 POS70 N/A: DD/training aid, 236k but really about 240k, I think...ABS module( passed on to son who sold it)

I had almost bought a set of those locally a couple weeks ago. It is good to know they function on an 850.

I did buy a set of These. Edit: I found they were called "Lysithea".
I wanted winter, but not steel. I will look up the name.

With the winter tires for a good deal It had become an impulse buy.

These will function on each of my vehicles that I may use for the winter. They are 15", but that will be great. If the pot holes from last year are anything of an indication as to what this winter might be like here, the extra cushion will be nice.

The tires are in great shape, and I had had no winters to use last year.

I'll see if the other ad is still on c- list. Although I may be spending all my cash on an S60 Monday.
We'll see.
I am having second thoughts on the S60. But I am doing the research. ('02 2.4T AWD)

Edit: I have a need to appreciate your bumper white. Your country has a most beautiful look as well.
