New car
Sweet, man... That R-kit puts my stock s80 to shame...Would have wanted to put a kit on it but there's none to be found, just some lil Heico-sportiv splitters to the front bumper that costs an arm and a leg and don't even show... Prolly gonna swap it next summer, but haven't really decided yet what to get. At the moment the leading candidate is a Skoda Octavia Scout. Need an STW, but don't wanna drive a car that you can't find from the shop paking lot amongst all the others just like it... That would have 4wd, and to me it looks pretty good. Don't wanna buy an XC70 cause it's too much of the same car as that s80... And it's basically a Vw so the parts are pretty cheap...
Volvo exploded yet again, looking at over 1000 euros worth of parts + job, it`s nearing the limit when it`s not sensible to repair anymore, grounded it in the yard to gather motivation and funds and bought me a Citroen Xantia 1,8i Athena just yesterday. A little work to do (leaking hydraulic line) before I can drive it home after work tomorrow, here`s hoping no other major faults pop up (paid 400e for it, the hydro-line costs 249e)... It`s been sitting from last summer in the parking lot so it`s really dirty, the battery`s gone and some creekings in the suspension, but a little elbow grease and a bottle of wax should revive the old frenchie until I have enough green to buy that Scout...
