    The S60R should be quicker. And I'm a fan of R Volvos. But that is one hideous colour.


    I like the colour ;) and its had the angle gear done :)

    Anyone ever driven either of them.

    I'd go for the Mazda.

    The Volvo may be faster but that colour is hideous and the steering wheel design is cack!

    The colour doesn't look too bad in the picture. But I've seen one in the flesh in that colour, and honestly it's horrible. And this is from someone that wanted a canary yellow 850R.

    S**t is it that bad.....that's about the best one I can find, may have to go for the Mazda so.

    Also, ad says 330BHP, but I see no mention of a remap or anything. They should be 300.

    I'd take the S60 though in a different colour please.
    Quick car but not overly sporty, the remap would make a difference mind.
    Very comfortable with super seats. A nice sound of them too.

    I would go with Volvo too ( sorry MM ). There is just something very very sexy about fast Volvo. It's like a nun with spicy stockings under the hood.

    Can you specify the start date? Mine was from 23.59 the day I bought it.

    That sucks. Paying for the day and only getting 1 minute of it to drive!



    Assuming you buy insurance online and specify todays date/time as the date the policy starts on, you should be covered. See no reason why you wouldnt be.

    Certainly has been when I've bought from Quinn/Liberty and Aviva. If you push button at 7:56am then that's printed on cert. renewals generally from 0:01am.

    You'd imagine they'd colour grade them like tax discs. Make it a bit easier to spot the lemons.

    Because weve had the same one for 13 years now so they want to change it
