... a student in Gent ... you too Horo ? I even did a project at the Volvo-factory as a student. They were producing the 850 at that time. Filip

Ah yes..the 850s!! Had two of those

Had the 850 T5R and later the 850 Turbo. I remember the estate versions were entered into the BTCC and were jokingly called the "flying bricks", though they never won anything. I remember the factory in Ghent produced for both Volvo and Renault? No, I was... 

Oh yes, the crazy front wheel spins.

I had to rotate my tires front to back every 2 months to make sure even wears. I also had my first highway tire puncture with that car. Lotsa of girlfriends then too, swinging 90s.... - Best, Horo

Gent's a beautiful little town
