Nice ! How's the interior ?

I thought about going to the Netherlands to buy an 850, but I ended up finding the perfect V70 an hour from where I live

Hy Buddies,

Some news about Blue's rescue. The color of the car is 604 -21 : 604, I understand, but what the 21 means ?
Look for the broken parts in the right color, if someone has it, a pm is allowed

Here some pictures of the visible issues I have to treat.
The glove box seems either to be unscrewed or broken

The radio wiring hasn't been touch by a mess, which is a good new. The wiring of the sc 901 present in the V70 will play its role.

The cover of the tail gate is to be replaced

Here's a gril missing

protection is gone...

Protection of the button must be somewhere...

21 means the paint’s made by Beckers, and it’s solvent based or metallic.

4th digit is manufacturer, 5th is type of paint.

Thanks Sommerfeldt ! To learn is always interesting.

i have another question. About the windows central command, what should I use to clean it, that doesn't run the risk to ruin it ? Sopay water with smooth brush ?

Medical grade Isopropyl alcohol, It will evaporate and leave nothing behind.

By the way...

I've just finished to read this post about a tensioner that I've forgotten on my list of parts to replace. My idea is why to replace everything on the timing belt without this tensioner ? Of course it has a price, but, to compare to rebuilt an engine ?

this post was definitely a one to read :

As I am here, I must say that I find the website pages on MVS absolutly well done. The posts are clearly presented, we can read them easily. Nice work of pages built.
