    the fuel system is piss easy compared 2 the commodore. The hardest part is taking off the trim 2 fix 1 of the power windows. They are hell strong tho cause the other day a volvo got hit by a truck and i swear the truck has more damage lol
    mine will be back monday

    Yeah i didn't see it, and yeah i thought the festival was a bit over-rated. TBH i had more fun at the caravan park (something to do with a large group of us, 4 campsites next to each other, with a ford laser parked in the middle which was blaring music mostly dubstep for 8 hours of the day) Needless to say, the tenants loved us :P

    Nah i left the car safely in the garage at home, and it's got the black garnish and rear wheel arch spats, and i hate maccas so you wouldnt see me trolling through there

    u talking to me right? haha if u are then:
    hassles with cops? ive never been pulled over (yet), no attention so far from them about the spats, and i shouldnt think there would be, seeing as VP calais have them stock. I think you got pulled over purely because of the black wheels and low, cos they'd assume people who have black stockies on a low older commodore wagon DO BURNOUTS and have cut springs.
    I love slammed wagons, they look so phat. i know, slam the Volvo! :P

    Now that you have a volvo you won't have to use your indicators anymore .
    there are three types of people in the world , those who can count and those who can't

    found the problem with cyl 1.......

    there is a break in the middle if the spark lead. When it was sent 2 the shop they put the tester near the dissy before the break so it came up good but when i went thru everything i put my tester near the spark plug and got nothing... so i slid it up further and found where the break is, pushed it together as hard as i could and it idled great.................. my arms are all tickly tho.... got a lovely shock some how

    so there is still a chance 4 this thing 2 live (until i drive it)

    what do people think? should it stay or should it go???
