After lots of 2xx series cars, and multiple 7xx series cars, the first 850.




That one was sold, because I wanted a turbo.




That one was sold because the miles were getting up there, and I found a smokin' deal on the next one. There's always a 'next one', isn't there? Obviously I kept the wheels from the blue car.

Man, I have been here for a long time and have not figured out how to make thumbnails. Mine are usually copied from another spot on the web and linked in like this...

What I do is to fire up the "Go Advanced" button and add my pic as an attachment. After uploading the pic and clicking on the "close this window" button, there's a link of the pic I just uploaded, as you'll see below. Right-click on the link and select "Copy Shortcut". You can paste that shortcut into your post by clicking the "Insert Image" button from the toolbar above the text box. If you scroll up a little to see post #58, you'll see both a big image as well as the attachment thumbnail.

For what is pretty much a stock looking (18 year old) vehicle, I do get a lot of compliments on it.

I have actually not seen many anywhere. So far i have seen 3 guys from US posted that color and one dude from UK.

I am in South Africa btw an this car is auto and almost all the R's (few thats left here) are manual.

All of the US R's are auto. None of our R's are that color. We only got Yellow, Black, Red, and White 850 R's.
