The wheels aren't too bad, but not great either. Bad paint, few marks on them. I had every intention on getting them refurbed with new tyres before they go on the car.

The OE Volvo ones that are on at the moment are just 17 inch. Don't want to sell them, just in case you know and I might even throw some winter tyres on them????

Yeah, I'm happy with that MPG, like I said though, I was only cruising at 65mph there and back.

There's a Volvo meet in York on 26th May if you're up for a drive out?
Yeah, having a set spare for winter is no harm. They can get grubby and it doesn't matter!

I've already got plans on that date unfortunately, but maybe sometime that doesn't clash with something else. I went to a car show last year in Tatton Park, Knutsford (not sure if you know it). The show wasn't Volvo only though, but it was great to see all marques of cars. Some of the American stuff was stunning... the big Lincoln's and Chevy's. There were a few Volvo's too... 740's, 940's and Amazon's to name but a few. Awesome to see.

Blue is looking good as always.
