A couple of cars

Post by petefarrell360 » 04 Aug 2005 08:16 pm

I don't normally post items from Ebay, however I felt these two needed to be brought to the attention of Volvo 300 enthusiasts!

That is quite near me, been in storage for 14 years, so could be free of the tin worm!

This looks interesting! Very poorly listed sadly, so a helping hand here for this one. 89 spec saloon, with some extras.

Alloys are ok.. the rest is a bit rice though. Rear spoiler seems tastefull from what can be seen though

I like to keep (almost) everything original on my cars so that's why I don't like it.
It is a nice effort to make a "dull" 300 look nicer though...

Well yeah.. that'd be running 13" steelies otherwise!

There are some things that are nice to keep original... but alot of the time original isn't the best idea. For example, 400 series alloys look better than stock GLT rims, spax/koni suspension is better than original.. etc

Though I must say its far better to have an original looking car with say a 2.3 turbo conversion ;)

I meant original Volvo stuff too... I have a set of 400 alloys which will go on my car. Koni suspension is also installed...
But this is a bit to much on the rice side of doing up your car imho...

Oh yeah I agree - though I'd probably keep the spoiler and the alloys on it :)
