Interesting. My mind says "T5M", but my eyes say "low pressure turbo" because of the wheels.skloon wrote: ↑28 Mar 2018, 09:30 Not mine, a bit of a rare item https://www.kijiji.ca/v-cars-trucks/sas ... nFlag=true
Help keep MVS on the web -> click sponsors' links here on MVS when you buy from them.
Also -> Amazon link. Click that when you go to buy something on Amazon and MVS gets a cut!

An AWD would have the LPT engine if I'm not mistaken. And the wheels appear not to be original to the car.
Looks really nice though, too bad it's so far away.

Another interesting one to add. Again no nothing about car or owner.
To my knowledge there was never a T5 R coupe. Have seen a few around and think this is one that has been around for a while. It is a US car (MPH and KPH on speedo) so mileage is 115,000 miles. If this is the car I think it is it came from the auction here in Calgary recently and needed a complete re-spray. So watch out for bondo. Car was in horrible condition, and if it has an 'R' badge on the back it is likely that car and suggest you may want to walk away! Check if it has just been painted and both door windows work.

That's a C70. No R, not possible. The only R in 98-00 is the wagon (V70). Isit even a T5? Hard to say; it's too bad the pictures are basically useless. 
Thanks for all of the useful backstory possibilities.

Here is a selection of the 850's for sale locally needing love. First one is a Platinum with a head gasket issue.
Once again, don't know the cars or owners but maybe someone wants a project?:

Here's a couple of neat ones here in FL.
As of today - the T5m was still available.. although I may jump on it if the wife green lights it.
https://spacecoast.craigslist.org/cto/d ... 16443.html
I've always wanted to do this.. I haven't contacted - so, not sure if its a legit ad.
