Forg, please tell me that's not a cushion on the parcel shelf?
You can’t see it from that photo; but the interior ain’t done yet, but when it’s done I’m going to install some press-studs on the parcel shelf so I can have a bowls hat which properly clips into place.
And yes, the dark tint ... OMFG it feels so airy in the Volvo compared to the VF, seems like you can just see everything. So much vision; so little excuse for Volvo Driver noticing-nothing behaviour. :)

doug05, that pair is stunning!!

Still have the Golf?

No sold it great car and after a tune was very fast. But I wanted something bigger, something that didn't go ballistic once on boost. If I had more room would have kept it. Too used to the linear power a V8 and supercharger gives.

Luv the comparison in the last pic, the Monaro looks almost 'svelte' compared to the 'porky' VF.

Yes the last pic sure shows a difference. Mirrors the population really :)

Sadness! I've got to say they're both great cars with awesome engines. The turbo 4 and the super 8 are totally suited to cranking heaps more performance out of them. We are lucky to live in such high performance times.

Big boned haha :)

Driving the Monaro after the VF, you feel like you are driving a little hot hatch or something. Noticeably quicker to wash too!
