And finally, a little before and after. Best part of 20 years between this photo's, don't have many pics of when I first got the car, never thought back then that over 20 years later I'd still own it!
Thank you. Yes, over the moon myself with the results, don't think it's ever looked as good. If it was an estate and easier on fuel I would daily it without a second thought.I'm delighted the arches were sorted as part of the vandalism repair. Sucks that you can't have anything nice without people attempting to ruin it, but lovely that it has backfired by leaving the car better than before. These old Volvos remain as charming as ever - and possibly one of the few cars of that era which you could potentially drive daily to the present day.
The amount that came out of it I never even considered a jubilee clips to be the culprit.Good result. I always keep a wee pack of these in a few different sizes in my roadside emergency kit. Have come in handy a few times over the years!
Came on steels but yes, still have a set ot original steels and wheel trims. I'll eventually get a set of 740 wheels for it which would be age appropriate accessories. Holding out for a set of Hydras, 16" wheels but prices are mad for them, £500ish for ones needing refurbThis is excellent. I love it
I think the clear indicators are a lovely upgrade. Do you still have the original alloys?
If you find them drop me a pm with a priceAlthough more modern, I'm near sure I've a set of these sitting somewhere from one of my old 940's
Wouldn't be mint or anything though, but quite usable.
