Re: Luke's volvo
Yeah I know, it means I I'll have more funds to get the Suzuki back on the road,
But today was the day it went on its way, it's going up to Fife, bye bye Volvo, I'll miss you!

Re: Luke's volvo
Luke, had one years back, same colour, 2.4 auto, loved driving it, maintenance no prob, bomb proof. And for a hellova lot of galvanised tin, lots of poke as well. Well worth looking after, hope you enjoy it as much as I did mine.

Re: Luke's volvo
I'm glad yours was a good car, this one was too, really comfortable a real pleasure to drive, even with 3 gears and the 2.1 carbed engine it was powful enough. It was a really good car and reliable, unfortunatly it only had x4 seats and I have a family of 5, so instead of using it, it was sitting in the garage. When I sold it, I used some of the money to pay for bits my SJ, insurance, tax, mot, poly bushes and other bits. When it truly came down to it, I wanted my Suzuki more than the Volvo, there was nothing wrong with the Volvo, in fact it was in better condition than my Suzuki, but i didn't love it,
Since I passed it on, the next owners had it a while and is passing it on again, he has bought an old Austin a30 so I think the volvos got to go. I was a little disappointed with how he's priced it, I had it advertised for £1200 and took £1150, he has it up for £1800, he's doesn't look to have done any work on it and it still has the same MOT, I suppose if he gets the money good on him but I should have held out for more, oh well. That is life!
