My new V..... V..... volvo.....

So after owning 3 passats I've decided for a change. Not to everyone's liking I'm sure, but things would be boring if we all did the same and liked the same things... :roll: It's a 2003 V70R 300bhp AWD Manual. And jolly good fun it is too! Returns better mpg than my old 2.8 V6 4motion B5.5.... :D ht...

You did not waste any time, did you Dan ? I can't believe you had it already fitted, you only had it for a few hours ! A nice w8 badge on the back and it would not look out of place ! Very nice... It was probably fitted and test driven before you even got home!! How does it sounds on a petrol engin...

Will my passat bits fit an S4?

After a little bit of advice if possible?

Looking at getting a 03 S4 Avant - 4.2 V8......

Wonder if coilovers from my B5.5 4Motion will fit?

I assume the wheels will.....

Failing that will be more saving up...... :cry:

Back from another Sunday morning on the old pedal cycle. Gave the car a quick wash, hoover and emptied all pap out of it.... Needs a good clay allover and some proper polishing! Happy with the tints from Steve at tinted vision - 'Factory Tint' think it's just enough. :D As it stands today...... :win...

I had the same problem on mine. Was going to ask the same question about clearance. I cant lower mine anymore due the driveshafts being in the way. I reckon Ive got about another inch left in them too- stupid design! ~x( Yours looks very low on the rear which is what surprised me. :shock: The MOT t...
