Nope only the 2.4 stinkpot I'm afraid, but with a few mods made by the previous owners, EGR delete, remap, Bilstein shocks all round and fully powerflexed. Goes, turns and stops far better than the knackered volvo it replaced.... And looks a million times smarter doing it too I think.

Is the 2.4 the 5 cylinder job? They were a nice engine.

Lovely cars. A lot of character.

Thanks. There may be "better" cars out there on paper, certainly quicker, and certainly more economical, but we love it and I guess that's what matters.

Washed on Saturday, I reckon by the end of the week I can get it so no white is showing at all!
