I'm a new volvo enthusiast since my parents just picked up a brand new V70 XC :)

Anyway, I was wondering which companies make volvo models. I checked HLJ and all they have is a racing model 850 by tamiya. Are there any basic street 850s out there, or newer volvo models like the S60 or C70? Are any being planned? Thanx.

I have the Tamiya 850 street version. The plan with it is to turn it into a brit police car at th scene of an RTA with the open rear showing all the police gear in the back...But just another project stalled while i finish the current bodykits.

WOW This is spooky!!
Driving home today(Thurs 15th) I stopped at the shop to get some bits for tea and parked up outside said shop was the EXACT 1/1 REAL LIFE T5R estate that Pkw1 built! SAME colour! SAME Gunmetal grey alloys SAME everything!!!
Now unless the old guy that Pkw1 made the kit for has sold his and shipped it halfway round the word then i think it's a bit spooky!!
What's next? P/Mns Golf??

Ahhh, the 95 T5-R... Only 2500 of these were made total, with 1000 of them imported to North America. Most are the sedan with that color (only other colors were black, green and VERY rare pearl white) There are probably only a couple or few hundred of that exact car in the whole world, so fatbayslim, that is quite a coincidence!
btw pkw1, that is a flawless replica, really good job man!
Here's one of my favorite pics I've found on the net: A T5-R with an F40 :D :D :D
