Hello folks,

We're looking for a nice 850R estate (the 250hp version) in very good original condition, and an even nicer owner who wouldn't mind getting involved with a bit of editorial on the homepage.

In exchange we're offering a day out with a few fellow PHers, some souvenir pics of the car, and most importantly a free pub lunch!

Please email me if that's you...

Cheers
Chris

I'll post this on the volvoforums for you guys.

Got a very original 1997 850R but it's the auto... Be happy to help though if you want an example of one in daily use - I do 140 miles a day in it (mon-fri)!!!

If you want rampblings from another angle -why not try mine?

Currently being abused in belgium - 850 T5r MANUAL, in BLACK - converted 7 seater
Got my four children , the wife , the lover ( that would be the bernese mountain dog ) and cloking up serious mileage to monaco / cannes and denmark -

Currently looking at getting the gearing upped so we can cruise at higher speeds without reaching the revlimiter. This and a gripper diff from dave mac should sort the only real shortcomings after 150.000miles
