Rick-Manta Posted October 23, 2010 Share Posted October 23, 2010 (edited) I've always wondered if these definitive antique dealers cars would in time actually become antiques for car dealers!? Quite a bargain for a practical runaround, I've even seen one get done up on a show called 'car sharks' that was on FTN when On Digital first come out. They made it into a pickup truck conversion by taking off the third boot area section and decking out with aluminium checker plate, yet keeping the rear passenger bit, as it was an estate it looked like a double cab truck! They painted it bright yellow and it looked pretty damn awesome! I hope you sell it mate. Edited October 23, 2010 by Rick-Manta Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is a perfect workhorse and I am reluctant to sell it really but I have too many cars and a Manta being built so I have to make room...besides I have just dragged my old Jag out of storage and I tend to go everywhere in that so the old Volvo is feeling a bit left out and needs a new home. She has done 160K but thats just run in! I have seen them with half a million on the clock and , as a volvo club member, one inparticular with 1 million!!! that must be 3 or 4 times round the world!
