Craig855S Posted September 27, 2010 Share Posted September 27, 2010 got a 5 grand bonus from work the other day, hate the 306 with a passion and although the origional plan was to use it to clear all debt and then save up for a new car I've decided to use some of it to replace the 306 with a car that hopefully i'll never get bored of. http://www.evo-host.co.uk/getimg/25448.jpg Can you tell what it is yet?

sidrick Posted September 27, 2010 Share Posted September 27, 2010 You're spending your bonus on a diesel Volvo rather than clearing all debt? 0_o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig855S Posted September 27, 2010 Author Share Posted September 27, 2010 There will still be a healthy chunk left to spend on clearing debt, any debt that remains is intrest free so its not like its going to "cost me" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

massivewangers Posted September 27, 2010 Share Posted September 27, 2010 I always fancied an R one of these I must say! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caled Posted September 27, 2010 Share Posted September 27, 2010 Can't say its especially floating my boat, but I suppose it'll be comfortable and reliable. Parker's reckons the D5 is 185bhp though, with the not-a-D5 diesels pushing out 163bhp? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

noah_swann Posted September 27, 2010 Share Posted September 27, 2010 one of our warehouse lads has an S60R the same as that (black on black) and is a bloody nice car to drive, also one of our directors has a 59plate S60 D5 and though i'm yet to drive it i've been reliably informed it is surprisingly good to drive (and in the wet will try and spin up in 1st, 2nd and 3rd even when not pushing hard!)
