MOT’d one of my work buddies cars today (he has quite a few)..
It’s one of two in the UK and was originally a Volvo show car and came from the factory as you see it.
It’s done a whopping 16K miles and is pretty much as new.
It’s rare treats like this that make me love my job, that and messing around in AMG’s
If there was a Swedish version of Starsky and Hutch, Huggy Bear would be driving that.

Styling on that model was very 1990 s American with that little quarter light at the back.

My bestest buddy and long time biking/track day amigo will have this delivered on Monday..
I simply cannot wait to get hooning round the twisty’s with a bit of competition again.
The forecast for that day will be fun, fun, fun, with a slight overcast of depression of lack of talent on my part.
It’ll be crazy fun though

I had one of those, a 2013 675 Street Triple. Brilliant bike and engine. Did 1 track day on it and sold it the next day. Bought an SV1000 to replace it, but looking to get a 890 Duke R to replace that. All for track days. Got a K16 for road duties with the boss.
Will be on track tomorrow night and Tuesday. Hopefully the predicted thunderstorms wont interrupt us too much.

Regrettably the thunderstorms are only for down south so you'll probably be okay if the track is local to you.

Macca's dream job: chasing around "Tornado Alley" in an RV, like in the film "Twister".

We are at Donington tonight and Oulton tomorrow. At the moment the rain will arrive late Tuesday, so we should be ok.

I was caught in a hurricane once, in Atlantic City. Was only a poxy category one. The waves were still coming up over the boardwalk and hitting the casino windows though.
