After my dad owning two 240’s when I was a small boy and my mum owning a 340 I finally have my very own. Still driving my 2014 XC70 but this will be a project for me. A few little bits I’ll do myself but then it will be going to classic Swede for a redblock turbo engine engine and gearbox. Really happy with it and it still has the original tape player which I will keep. New wheels are on route as well as new front seats and subframes. It has a petrol leak I need to sort. Nothing silly just a fuel line underneath. All in all happy boy.

Thanks bud. New wheels and tyres are on the way as well as front seats. Coilovers will be done at classic Swede as well as an S70 r front brake upgrade too.
