Intermittent ABS light on an 850 is normally down to the ABS module bolted on the pump mate, The soldered joints inside deteriorate due to age, All you need to do is get inside it and reflow the solder with a soldering iron, It worked for my T5 8 years ago and i've had no problems ever since 👌As for this 850 T5 you've got you must get it to 500K miles!

The rear bumper drooping down is rotten mounting brackets which bolt on, the volvo bolts are a fortune so I used equivalent stainless at a fraction of the cost.

I'm 56, and I can tell you as a child I used to watch the planes in the sky, whilst lying in the sun, and reading my comics. Not too far from Birmingham airport. I can definitely tell you the trails were nothing like they are now.

I have volvo 740 carburator car. Ive been driving it after my dad for 10 years now. It has 999 999+ miles never had any problems with it. Its so good not to have abs, electronics, katalysator, airbag... It has saved me so much money so I have bought ridiculous luxury items for it like full new truck A/C kit, new webasto, now Im planning to install new titanium exhaust to it just to make the car inspector laugh a bit more. It has working monroe rear shocks on it after 35 years of service just completely ridiculously strong car and original untouched rear axle, gearbox, motor (had new gasgets installed). And good zinc coding from factory so no rust holes except 1 under drivers shoes.

If it had a LPG conversion, the guzzling doesn't really matter because LPG is half the price of fuel ... mostly.

unless the wheels need straightening or welding then £100 per corner is a bit much. if your on a budget, remove the tyres and clean the rim where the bead sits down to bare metal and re-paint all off the inside. the problem is corrosion gets under the beads and lifts the paint from the rim, even when they paint that black rubber sealant on, unless they fully clean the bead seat, it just sits on the lifted paint.

Two new struts and spring fitted and it past the retest. Interestingly both struts were the factory fitted originals. I bet cars built today won't go 24 years and 170,000 miles on their original parts. Those columbia wheels that you have are notorious for going out of round causing the tyre not to sit right and thus slowly deflates. I replaced mine with aftermarket wheels as I was fed up having to replace front tyres so often due to the uneven wear. 462K... that must mean my V70 is just about run in then 😆

I would love to know how many miles your Volvo travelled under the LPG system and did it fail or was it turned off deliberately? My only experience of those systems from back in the eighties is that they stink when running on the LPG and that the combustion chambers run dry and hot, and had a tendency to burn out the exhaust valves, so I am amazed at the high recorded mileage. A question popped into my head as I was typing. Is it still the original engine?

Geoff's "old high mileage Volvo" is actually FAR WORSE for the Environment than an EV, HERE is HOW that is calculated, first there is the initial environmental footprint, concerning the manufacturing of the vehicle, it takes less resources to make an ICE vehicle compared to an EV, BUT, as soon as both of these vehicles hit the road, the ICE vehicle has a far heavier environmental footprint, compared to an EV and after about 3 years on the road, as the ICE vehicle OVERTAKES the EV in the "heavier environmental footprint" department, as the ICE vehicle "continues to pump out CO2 and NOx" during its entire lifespan, therefore the more miles it does, the worse it is for the Planet.

@mostlyoldthings

Жыл бұрын

Thanks Kevin Fair point. Currently the UK generates about 29% of it electricity from fossil fuels as I understand it, so not all use of EV's is CO2 free, but I get what you are saying, assuming that they cover similar mileages per year. However, I believe lots of these old classics are only used occasionally (my 1997 V70 did about 1500 miles last year) so if they do less than 1/3 the mileage of an everyday use, 12,000 mile, EV we are in the same carbon emission ballpark -maybe just me trying to justify my earlier comment but just a thought......I do indeed look forward to a time when all power generation is carbon free and EV's have comparable range and there is a comprehensive charging network, I also welcome better battery technology where it would be less problematic to recycle. On a social point however, it appears that many of the EV's produced are prestige items, and purchase costs are beyond many less well off members of society, so although ICE's may be worse, for many they are the only current (no pun intended!) choice for those who need mobility but who are struggling financially. It would be better in my opinion to make smaller, non-SUV sized EV's which had scaled back performance (we all know how fast some EV's are, ridiculous in some instances) lighter weight with a presumably then better range. Hopefully this would mean they would also be more affordable rather than status symbols? I'd certainly buy one if the price was more competitive.

What I've done over the years is get them to do an NCD match on a new policy. I've ended up with 6 policies all with full NCD and if I change a car (quite rare which is how I've ended up with too many), a policy NCD can sit idle for a year or thereabouts before being applied again. I've managed to get most on a multicar but three being modified usually ends up with one car being orphaned. Another is a classic so on it's own policy.

I hope you enjoyed your cake 👍
