27,
no kids,
no flat cap,
barefoot,
occasional beard due to saving money for petrol

93 245 SE

94 965 CD

Both manual, both right-wheel-drive and I love them dearly!

Oh, and the Capri

Had an 855, every bit a volvo in regard to build etc but turned into an understeering mess when pushed even remotely hard.

I much prefer to steer from the rear, plus when you're pulling weight, there's nothing like RWD traction

Where's the rat option eh?


I don't have a flat cap, I have a cowboy hat.
I smoke, but not a pipe.
I have a 945, and no, it's not a type of Porsche.

It has a turbo, it's RWD, it drifts, therefore it's better than your little compact with £5k of Halfords specials on it could EVER be!!

Erm, well I do have the two dogs!! But I appear to be unusual in that I am female and hate driving small cars!! LOVE my Volvo and although we are coming to the end of the road together, would dearly love to replace it with another one.
