Note: Your handle would have been 200% more awesome if it started with "A"

The click you're hearing/feeling is the disengaging of the mechanism that prevents you from putting the car in reverse. It engages once you reach a certain speed (not sure what the exact speed is off the top of my head) and remains engaged until you again slow to below that speed, i.e., as you roll to a stop. Nice ride! J |

Got ya! The custom seats are pretty nice... It has a nice blue R stiched in as well. |

It's not just the seats, the guys were pointing out the aluminum-look trim pieces in your console and dash vents, etc. Those aren't stock. The exhaust looks like it might be the Eurosport, it's a really smooth sounding exhaust, very nice. http://********************/smile/emthup.gif |

Looks like a pretty good deal to me...any engine bay pics...might have some more aftermarket goodies hiding in there. |

I highly recommend taking it to your local Volvo dealer and having it looked over very closely. With the amount of aftermarket parks, there is that chance that the car was beat on hard and it might need some work to get to what IPD calls "stage zero." Taking care of the small things now will extend the life of that R for sure. I got rid of my first R with a little over 82k and it had a mysterious boost issue. The R looks good though and I think you got a good deal. Welcome to SS! http://********************/smile/emthup.gif |

With all those aftermarket parts I'm surprised no one knows who's car this was. Got any more info on where you got it? If not someone here, maybe someone on S60R.com will know who it used to belong to. Best way to find out if it was well taken care of would be to find the PO, or the PO's archive posts on an online forum. |

Quite the unique find in this car. I like the subtle "R" in the pinstripe. The price you paid was a STEAL; car looks great. Congrats and Welcome! |
