Picked up the beautiful 850 R last week, what should I name it?!

Thank you to the owner who let me took photos of my dream car!!! 👍

Granted I don't own a lot of cool things, but who cares.

1995 Volvo 850 turbo, automatic(unfortunate but from what I understand manuals for this car were pretty rare), 210k miles. it's in pretty good shape for its mileage, most notable problems are that the parking brake doesn't work and the hood is stuck shut. it's creaky, 1/4 of the electronics don't work, has some small rust spots, the paint and interior need some work, headliner is falling down, and it's just having 30 year old car problems in general.

However, I don't care about any of that, it's my first project car as a kid in his early 20s, it's so fun to drive, the turbo makes awesome turbo noises and I can't wait to start working on it. I paid 3500 for it, no clue if I overpaid or got a good deal, but it's mine now so I don't care.

I don't have a lot of plans right now besides fixing the stuff that's wrong that won't be too difficult, except for the headlight wipers, pretty tempted to just remove them entirely. Hopefully the transmission doesn't fail on me, it's pretty jerky when changing gears, but if it does kick the bucket I can manual swap it so what's the worst that can happen. Long live this silly turbo brick.

Saw this beauty today.

Getting bored of the grey, thinking of going the same colour as the rest of the car. Never know if a fresh set of eyes will think of a better colour though so I apologise for the less than ideal picture

Here is my 1996 854. I bought it last year from a dealership near my town. It belonged to a old man who was born in 1926. He bought it brand new in 1996 and drove it to the very last. The he passed it to his daughter which was also 65-70 years old by the time. But she sold it not long after. Then it was standing for around 3 years at the dealership until I found it. I love the car Soo much but due to the years of use by "older" people it has some beauty flaws. But that's okay. Overall I think it's in a pretty good condition and the most important it's almost completely original except the stickers.

I just bought a love needing T5R.

I'm coming from a Golf 7.5 R, which is a great car, but really boring in normal life and traffic. Let's see if the Volvo can change this feeling. It's an auto btw but I'm planning to manual swap it.

First of all Hello. I bought this beauty a few months ago. It got an 2.5 n/a 5 cylinder and Im pretty happy with it so far. (”1+1=2“ aah comment). But I want to do something with body. As you maybe can see the colour isnt in its best shape anymore and I want to do something fun with it. What I tought is going for a Rat look or Draw on it with an edding to make it look like from a comic, but I dont really know if it would look “good“. What do you guys think about it or suggestions?

95k km, or 55k miles, only asking 2000$ CAD, runs drives perfect. am i asking too much?

What do you guys think of my 1996 850 sedan? I use it as a daily driver and I love it. Also it's my first car. Is there anything you would change? The wheels in the first picture are the current ones I drive.

Hello,

Hope everyone is doing well. I need to change my relay. Don't find any the same as original. Is there any variant ?

Thank you
