I have a soft spot for these as I had one as my first car, an '84 A Reg in Caspian Blue. I bought another, on a B Reg, in late 2007, and was quite shocked just how crap they were. Rose tinted specs and all that.

To think that I sold my 55 Plate Volvo V70 D5 SE for less than these two pile's of shite....

Shish kebabs!! Just had a look at the first one and noticed the nylon K-jet tubes! Can we get them???? Are they a later addition to that car or original? Have seen porsche guys using them on refurbs. Pain in the ass to fit but notice no steel crimps. Hmmm.. Lots of cars here that need new fuel lines, it's the reason I put my first 100 off the road.

I had a black one Ken for about 3 months,a 1.6 CVH GL. I used to maintain it for my mate so bought of him when he bought his 2 year old B4 80 2.0 Sport.I actually quite liked it,felt light and it shifted quite well and of course it didn't matter if it got dinged in the car parks.
