Volvo 850 turbo + trailer w/ Volvo 850 BTCC

Hi,

last sunday was a very nice and soothing day, so I decided to go for a drive.

Near the Rhine River I discovered something interesting - and was so
glad that I had my digicam with me. I took a couple of pictures and thought
I would like to share it with you guys...





































Allright, I guess you figured that seeing this this particular combo in real life
is somewhat unlikely ;-)

A few details:

The metallic red one is a TAMIYA VOLVO 850 turbo
I lowered it just a tiny bit and put some goodies on:

- Thule roof box
- front air dam
- navigation system in the center console
- headrest TV's
- separation between trunk and interior
- BBS box in the trunk
- wood on the dashboard
- real carpet

The metallic blue one is a TAMIYA VOLVO 850 BTCC
I built it mostly OOB, just added a diffusor and a front lip

The trailer is scratch built from Evergreen styrene and painted silver.
The rims are from TAMIYA's HONDA Prelude XX. I also weathered
it to make it look like it has been used quite a bit.

Thank you for watching. Feel free to comment.

Cheers from Germany
Sebastian
