i want one, cries

Nice car Rob,

I have a '99 LBP too :) (2.3l though)

I'm sorry to disapoint you but the 2000 R isn't the fastest Volvo... The manual 850 T-5R and R are quicker and the S60/V70R is a lot faster.

Never the less the Laserblues are the most stunning of them all.

for the people who are lost.

V70R MY'97/98 has 240hp or 250 for the manual

V70R MY'99 2.3l has 250hp (automatic only)

V70R MY'00 2.4l has 265hp )automatic only)

[robthespotter]

Its a 1999 V70R 2.4 AWD 265.

[torod213]

How fast where you going there? Obviously in germany...

[richardstedman223]

Wat r is that? the old v70 or new v70?

I really like the engine sound from that 5 cylinder engine. spesial "soundtrack" as they call it. i've tried a Volvo V70R AWD with over 700HP and it scared the shit out of me. 0-60 in about 3 seconds

[mattie96nl]

ow crap sorry the number plates looks so the same like the Dutch bud thats a verry cool car, my dad has the xc70 2.5 T end the funny thing is that my dad has it chip tuned thanks to my talk enz enz bud any way it has nou 250hp :)

P.S my dad car has owned a 600sl on the german autobahn, so F*CK mercedes

[mattie96nl]

die car is echt gaaf, mijn pa heeft de Volvo XC70 2.5 t maar ik heb hem overgehaalt om hem te chip tunen en nu heeft hij 250pk!!!!!! en ik moet nu alleen nog 2 jaar wachten tot ik er in mag rijden :)

ik kan aan het filmje zien dat het in nederland is opgenomen dus neem ik ook aan dat u nederlands bent en dit kunt lezen.

[Bazzle16fc]

hmmm yup 2.4 !!!

[robthespotter]

Oh and by the way, it is an HPT - Mitsubishi.

[robthespotter]

Well obviously not as dumb as some, not knowing the history of all R models?!?! Once again : 1999 Volvo V70R

2.4 AWD 265 (Phase III Laser Blue)

look it up on pistonheads, there's some on there for sale at the moment, amazingly. Or eBay, christ, its the internet, and you still can't find it?! Oh dear......

Cheers

[JMK33]

You guys are dumb as hell. 2.4 liters were lpt, 2.3 litres were HPT...hence the R and T5 models.

[clyde0007]

volvo v70r are not that fast my sl600 would eat them for breakfast

[tiamaria111]

that is a 2.4 they did make em from 99 and they have about 15 bhp more than the 2.3

[robthespotter]

Well...it doesnt seem like i am going to cinvince you. But i can promise you this is a 2.4R with 265bhp. Not many people have heard of it due to its rarity, but it is genuine.....

Thanks again, Rob.

[JMK33]

Dual exhaust standard was on late year 1999s, and 2000s. Both of those years have a 2.3 litre high preasure turbo. 1999s have an 18t and 2000s have a 19t. You're wrong.

1999-2000 S70/V70 T5/R with 2.3L HPT - from a volvo tuning website.

[robthespotter]

This is NOT a 2.3 , it is currently sitting in the drive-way.: A 2.4R (twin pipes as standard, and i have recently found out on a website that it is 1 of 400 made).

Thanks again.

[richardstedman223]

I can back rob up.

This is a 2.4

Only 33/34 Laser Blue 2.4 came into the UK and at least 1 has been scrapped.

[pafro77]

@richardstedman223 And of of them i bought 2 years ago.. ;-)

[JMK33]

I can guarentee you it is a 2.3. My car is awd too...1998 V70R AWD. I have around 255hp now, and soon to be 314 with RICA tuning/full exhaust.

[Eddietion]

Nothing is like a Laserblue R.. Love it!

[JMK33]

Aeromax you're an idiot. I have a 1998 V70R that would keep up with this. This is a 2000 lazer blue, and its a 2.3 litre.

[robthespotter]

Me and aeromax are the same person - i have 2 accounts and forgot to sign out of that one - sorry! And im not an idiot - it IS a '99 and it IS a 2.4. Its the rarest R model made and im sure that it would outdo your 2.3, as it is AWD (and the power of corse)

Cheers.

[clyde0007]

Infact i beleave my old 500sl would whip your ass too

[aeromax999]

@ jimbo882: oh well....

@Jstreefkerk: This is the rare model - a '99 2.4 R. It makes 265bhp.

Cheers.

[jimbo882]

is that it??? i got bored

[robthespotter]

It has 265bhp and is completely standard. It is, technically, to date, the fastest road-going Volvo. And the rarest ...:D 500 worldwide.

[lordsabber]

how many bhp has it got? is it standard?
