I've seen the C30!

Some things just can't be placed elsewhere. Have you been speeding and got fined? Or spotted a nice new Volvo on the web somewhere? All non-480 messages can be posted in this part of the board.

Uhhhh

I'm a grumpy old git hence - "oh no not another c30 thread! Moan Moan complain grumble...."



Naah! Not really I love the c30's they are cool. Nice photo! Just a small humor at the expense of some of the c30 haters!!

Only as an appetizer, I guess, with LHD and all.
Less is often more.

It's a plastic dustcover. It will be removed at first inspection.
It has discs and this way they will stay shiny until it's driven for the first time.
The cover is placed over the disc and caliper, so it won't come of when the car is moved from parking to truck, to dealer, to garage, etc
