Finished in the famous "Saffron", this C70 T5 Turbo is one of a relatively small batch of coupes (by modern standards), and particularly so in the top spec T5 form, having the 2.3l turbo inline 5, producing 180KW - similar in spec to the T5-R turbo / V7 R sedans and wagons.. This one was asking $10,000 in March 2022, not too bad for a nice coupe with plenty of power. Always though it would have been nice if they applied the T5 wheels to these cars (and the yellow paint).. Spotted this one on...

One of only two of these we've got on the register - and well I suppose prices have gone a bit crazy.. It wasn't that long ago that you would get these for under $15k easily - not that they came up that often, but this one at the time of offering (2022 - March) was asking $35,000. Rare and with 220KW of power and AWD there's a lot to love about these classic Volvos.. At the time the car was offered ( see the original ad on carsales here), the seller made the following comments: 'm the third...

Haven't seen one of these before, but we've got a few SVO Fords on the register so though it would be good to record its details here.. This SVO V8 longreach ute was advertised on Graysonline in March 2022. The auction had expired by the time I spotted it, but I would expect it sold in the 20s at least.. Very rare and amazing to see an XH in such good condition and with low Ks. These things were workhorses, but suffered from severe rust, and dare I mention the hopeless door handles that plagued...

We do love a good TX3 - expecially when it's a turbo.. Although this one isn't the top spec 4x4 (which was essentially a Mazda Familia GTR Group A car), the Turbo 2WD is still very decent, and probably as quick in a straight line on a dry day.. This one was advertised through Graysonline auctions in NSW, Australia, in March 2022, and passed in at an undisclosed price. We've got quite a few TX3s on the register - trying to focus on the more desirable Turbo and 4x4 examples... Check out the others...

And the Volvos keep on rolling in - despite the high Kms on this 850R wagoin, bids got to $11,350 AUD showing there is plenty of interest in this rare early performance variant of the Volvo - lowek K examples are up on the high teens or 20s.. Looks like it's had a bit of a rough life - the dash is abit deformed (presumably from the sun in Australia), and the car, although clean, is looking a bit tired.. realistically it would probably require some $$ to get back to its former glory. Got a few of...

A bit obsessed with these Volvos at the moment, another 850R on the register, this one having nearly 250K on the clock but looks in great condition, and was advertised on carsales in March 2022 asking $28,000.. Not the cheapest on the market that's for sure. At the time the car was offered, the seller noted the following comments: "red 1996 Volvo 850 'R' sedan finished in iconic red with contrasting black leather and alcantara sports trim. Beautifully presented throughout and supplied with a...

It's so rare to see these come up nowadays - this 1976 Datsun 260c coupe was advertised on Ebay in March 2022 - we haven't seen one advertised in a few years now. I suspect there couldn't be more than a handful of survivors (not sure why but I presume they just didn't sell well). I think they're one of the best looking luxury Japanese coupes of the time. At the time of sale, the seller made the following comments: Complete original car with books daily driver/ survivor vehicle Starts, runs and...

Advertised on Facebook Marketplace in 2022 - located somewhere in Northern NSW, this "LE" example of the Proton Satria GTi was up for sale (no price disclosed at the time of offering). Only 20 of these LE models were supposedly sold in Australia - with factory leather trim, additional rear spoiler and a unique build number plaque fixed to the passenger side of the dashboard. We've note all of the features of the LE in our Satria GTi information guide here. See the original advertisement here.

Another interesting C140 advertised through Grays Online - see the original ad here. This original example of an early series car (1993) sold for $18,000 in March 2022, which is a great result considering the car has large Ks at 270,000! Still, it appears to be well kept with excellent service records, so it goes to show the importance of those. The seller indicated everything was in reasonable working order, but of course it's hard to know with these cars and there are so many intricate things...

Very rare 850 T5-R spotted for sale on Facebook Marketplace in March 2022, asking $33,000. This is the most desirable body / colour combo for the T5, and the car has the famous 5-cylinder turbo that brings the brick from 0-100 in under 6 seconds and produces 181kw.. Exceptional for a mid-90s sport wagon. See the original listing here. At the time the car was offered, the seller made the following comments: Offered for sale is this rare and desirable example of a 1995 Volvo 850 T-5R Estate...

A relatively low km example of the performance Volvo sedan of the 90s - the 850 R. This one was advertised on carsales.com.au in March 2022. asking $18,400 AUD - not a bad price considering relatively low Ks, and we've seen several over $20K recently. Stands out from the standard model with the red paint - very cool. See the original advertisement here. I the original advertisement the seller made the following comments: The car presents extremely well for age, 135,000kms ,original paint , deep...

The first white one we've got on the register - this one was spotted for sale on Carsales.com.au in March 2022, asking $17,990, and has fairly decent Ks on the clock at 244,000. Looks to be in good condition for its age. These are a rare performance version of the 850, making around 180kw through a 5-cylinder turbo engine, which would propel the car to 100 in around 7.5 seconds (quick for a large sedan of the mid-90s). The seller of this oine mentioned the following features in the original...
