Balls, I think that had the top speaker kit I want for my V70!

Slightly concerned about the red warning triangle. That's bad news. Minor errors light it up amber. Red is...er...STOP. NOW! Could be crash related, of course...but I'd want to stick a VIDA/DICE setup on it to see what the error is.

I'm slightly concerned that it would be an animal in a 360. The torque (260lbft?) comes in hard in the lower gears, and although it's quite linear as modern diesels go, it's still in danger of breaking traction and then running out of puff. Maybe if you could bodge the tone wheels onto the hubs to make the traction control work...? If you could make it work, and if it turns out to be useful in everyday motoring, it'd not be slow. I reckon my V70 D5 would do a reasonable job of keeping up with valver from a roll, so in a 360 (1100kg) opposed to the V70 (1600kg)...!

cheers

James
