I see it is a purple T5, I wonder if it is the same one I saw on here a few years ago. I believe a chap bought it for his daughter, the pics of the car when it was up for sale were in a car park.

The car came from Kettering last Dec,took me 11 and a half hours to drive it up to ullapool,after a two hour bus ride,after a ten and a half flight from Mexico City!What a pleasure that last half of the journey was with my first t5,think it was 550 miles of driving through the night and about 90 bucks of gas-The man who i bought it of was into music/promoting stuff,he had got a mondeo estate company car and wasnt using the car anymore.

So, we currently have:

- privacy glass
- heated seats
- roof bars on the 855

Surprising that PDC wasn't an option as I had it on the '96 M3 Evo saloon I just sold and the 850 is a lot bigger.

Also rear sun blinds were optional - they sit behind the door cards.

The saloon also had an optional rear sun blind.

I took both out of mine as one was damaged. They rest on the ledge next to the rear windows and are held in by the door card - usual screws / poppers. They have a small volvo logo written on in white and are the exact shape of the windows.
