Re: Vehicle Speed Sensors
Id like to buy a kit if possible
how much you looking to sell them for?
My car wont be ready for a few months so I wouldn't be very useful as a tester, but id like to purchase one while they're available
cheers

Re: 1st time Volvo owner :)
You dont have to convince me, my 340's far from standard
Really like stuff like the quater light windows that came on the earlier cars, and your right the interior is awesome
