It’s funny because it’s true. Don’t get me wrong, I really love Volvo’s design language at the moment, that is essentially one good looking face/butt/interior in different vehicle sizes. It is exactly what Audi do, yet I hate Audi for it, because they look dull to me. Yay for opinions and hypocrisy!

Good point, though worth remembering if it was destined to be that way there ain’t no way of stopping someone doing that. Free will is a double edged sword. Trying to make sure the worst doesn’t happen may help but it’s still just herding cats, people will always do what they want.

I have a feeling Torch may want to have words with you at some point over this. A cargument you might say.
Written more sarcastically, this whole thing might come over a bit Meh.... ;)

Eh, it looks fine, compared to the concept though it has gained a tonne of “visual weight” which doesn’t do it any favours.
I mean I know it was never going to keep all of those scoops and dramatic cuts, but that side has gained a fat roll below the sill line of the concept that doesn’t help. Plus the butt has gained…

Still have the original pics I took of this thing when I saw it at the Autosport show in ‘06 or ‘07. It looked a bit half baked in the flesh, but I definitely appreciated the idea and promise of it. Hence it still being in my desktop wallpapers folder even now.

If it helps at all, they’re only a 4 speed with overdrive. Not amazing, but still more fun than a slushbox when trying to keep on top of upped boost levels.

Unfortunately, those engine options are pretty rare here. Though they are a brilliant idea.

Hey, will you knock it off with this... It’s not sudden, I’ve been after a manual 740/940 Turbo wagon for months because of their tuning/hauling potential. Especially as the supply of affordable manual 850 T5 wagons are all but gone here in the UK.
You did this the other day with the bloody Prelude review thing. Will…

It was scrapped after doing one too many miles with a slightly skinny head gasket (he commuted from Nottingham to Turin for a work placement in it and warped the head). So it’s likely to have been melted down into cheap metal for a washing machine.
He regrets scrapping it, as it was a 2 door 320i manual. But in all…

This is indeed a great benefit of roundabouts. Though a friend of mine’s first car would probably disagree as it left one backwards as he tried to do something similar on his first drive after purchasing it. An E30 + 19yr old son of race driver with no fear and not as much talent as he originally thought was a fun…

Ah see, but if everyone drives on the wrong side all the time, nobody crashes... Wait what?

Have one on me, Beer and Mayo, on the same truck too:

IKR? Where’s my MANUAL TRANSMISSION!? If I was going to buy a car for that much money I’d expect whatever gearbox I wanted to be in there. Definitely not a car for gearheads.

Only if the 1st owner hasn’t crashed it into a swimming pool or pond.

Damnit, do the not think of us 5th owners who think we’re onto a hot buy? We don’t wanna live in a world without indoor shooting stars dagummit!

It’s ok, you’re quietly obsessed, meanwhile it is spitting flames very loudly, much like a lot of commenters on this article “BEACAUAAUSSEE ITsNOTAV8!!?!?!?”.

Yeah, I like it for that too.

So Subaru do have a more modern 2.0T boxer engine for the STI over there? Was it too much to ask to drop it into the Euro STI rather than just killing it and saying “emissions...”.
Yes, the market wasn’t great for the STI here but only because Subaru dropped the ball in the game they pretty much started.

Then there’s…

So what you’re saying here, in a few more well reasoned words:

“That will buff out”

Ouch dude. That’s my “project beater” budget x4. Maybe I’ll not moan about prices in future...

Does the auto insurance have to cover the medical bills that come with any injury? Because that may explain some kind of discrepancy a little.
Not that my bike crash was a big one but I did have to get a private (non-NHS) operation that was covered by my bike insurance. The physio and other patch up costs were down to…
