We Got A New Family Car!

[Harv]

Unfortunately it has to be my car as Jen is still enjoying the 45mpg of the TDi Jetta wagon.

Other than having to give up my e30 (already spoken for) I'm sure I'll be ok taking one for the team.

Congrats! Nice trade. The e30 will be in good hands, right?

[Harv]

Yes it will. A friend at work has been lusting for it for a long time now. Plus, I'll know where it is and maybe, just maybe, get it back someday. My e30 has been hands down the best all around car I have ever had.

That is an awesome choice John!  Oh how I LOVE wagons... I especially like the grin on your face reflecting in the glass.  I wish my daily was the wagon version... 

Drive it in good health!

What is it about wagons??!!!  Id love a 60s-70s volvo wag (vag) with something disgusting under the hood.  biggest decision is whether to go for mileage and handling or just being stupid (but, and this must not be discounted, hilarious) with a v8 swap....

 

EDIT: an all-alu duratec with mild turbo for best of both worlds...

something like this with ~250hp and a mild drop, canyon-ish suspension, brakes........

[Harv]

You mean something different like this?

 

 

 

 

 

Points if you find the really big mod!

 

Or are you talking my old 145?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I have to say the sound of the 6 in my e91 is wonderful!

Congrats on the new addition.  Wagons are cool, and you can haul stuff in 'em, and on 'em!

Is there a cut-out in the front bumper of that V8 Volvo for additional cooling?

 

Wait - where are the rear passenger doors?
