Re: Ridiculous R for sale while browsing
I had a spare main horn I put there for an amplified alarm. Works great!

Looks like a great business plan to import V70 Rs into Norway. I tried this with Fords in the 1990s but the Norway Ford market was saturated so sales fell off a cliff

Funny - I heard that Norwegians were pining for the Fords.
But I agree - I really don't think this car is that special, certainly not like $9k special. The interior is clean as can be but besides that it's a pretty standard-looking 98 R. 16s and doesn't even have the rear wing.

Well... R's usually sell quickly here, but with import taxes... this thing would cost exactly 19,337.44 USD. Plus shipping over the pond. So... good luck, I guess?

I just finished reading Out Stealing Horses by Per Petterson.
Probably to sell cars to Norwegians, you have to appeal to their psychology of stoicism due to light deprivation. So Abscate, a load of 80s era blue Fords might be snapped up like lefse.

Not a bad idea, this. I like lefse. What's that about a blue Ford, you say?
