Boom, jordi's inspired me to update this, nothing really exciting has happened but I got a cracking set of photos..... Why doesn't the volvo forum do a POTM?
Then it passed its MOT with no advisories
And then I got my scabby wheels refurbed
From this to this

Sweet, I need front fogs!
The wheels look spot on Luke, will get mine done, once the Zuk is rebuilt first.

The wheels really make the car now they're done - very nice!

Ah

I grew up in one of those. Dad still has it in his garage. My first car was a 164 -73, thirsty girl that was.

164's are rare on the ground now, i really like the 240 its great, just reliable everyday motoring, it's got an annoying oil leak which I need to bottom, other than that it's great!
Looking in your dig you've got a Puch Dakota? I'd love to see some pictures, i have an MS50D and used to have an M3, I always wanted a monza but they were always out of my price range!

I'll post some for ya mate. Puch's was the standard moped for lads me age back here/then. There's some sites who still has the old trim parts for 'em aswell. Didn't get mine all "fired up" until a couple of years ago. 15 until I die

So here's a list of things I have done to my Volvo since I last posted
-
So due to my lack of anything here are some more photos
The only thing that would make it better would be if the pictures were of my SJ,

looks excellent. Pleased you didn't do anything strange with the wheels - these look fab and bang on for it. Really like those original see-thru headrests too. Maybe could lose just one aerial though - that one out the back window, if you're doing requests
