Yeay more bricks!
850R? But manual makes me think T5 unless you have a very rare R manual?
I've been into them for donkies, started as just cheap way to get turbo RWD (740 2.3 B230FT conversion + welded diff + drain pipe exhaust + injectors + booooooost = rolly poly fun). Last few years had a V70 2.5 tdi (audi 5 pot lump) and been working on that as a daily driver thats comfy, quick enough (185bhp/275lb.ft?) but still return no less than 48mpg, long motorways and trips on the continent = mid 50's. Can also swallow 5 bikes in the boot and 5 folk + kit in the car.
Biggest issue is where I live (glasgow) we have a former warzone instead of tarmac, so goes through tyres, suspension (bilsteins lasted about 4 months before being blown) and rims :(

In a perfect world, the Boxster would beat the Volvo, I think, but given it's BQ's new baby, and Dammit clearly doesn't care about the exterior of his car, I think it could be close enough.
