Do a dna swab on those seats before purchase. Yuck. That car could have been good.

Quality replacement seat covers for what looks to be a late model 240 seat are not much change. Very pleased with the covers I bought from these guys for my '92.

Ack, my eyes! Those tails... not a fan. I saw this in my weekly sweep of the regional CL's via searchtempest for all things Volvo, and the tails were what kept me from submitting.
Fix the tails, swap out the seats, profit. At least it isn't another 262 V8 swap, amirite?

I wish I lived where they do not salt the roads. I would happily sell both my Audi 5000's and buy this Volvo as a daily driver. It would be so simple to maintain and to tweak.
I think some 69-ish Shelby tail lights and a lip spoiler might be a great starting point to change this Volvo's character.

Excess consumption has become a serious issue in the region. On a per capita basis, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates consume 91% and 83% more water than the global average, and about six times more water than the U.K., according to an analysis by Booz & Company. Qatar and Oman are also above the global average...
GCC residents and businesses have disregarded the consequences of their water usage to enjoy benefits more common in countries with ample rain and overflowing aquifers. But with the population of the GCC increasing in excess of 2% a year, and with rapid expansion in the region's economies, there is a growing recognitio...
GCC governments recognize the issue and have begun taking measures to address it: For instance, Saudi Arabia will phase out purchases of locally produced wheat by 2016 in order to discourage its growth and reduce the burden that farming imposes on the Kingdom's water resources. But there is more to be done.
GCC governments have a number of tools at their disposal to ensure the sustainability of their water supplies.
Agriculture reform. Agriculture accounts for 80% of all the water used in rural parts of the GCC, yet contributes only a few percentage points of GDP to these countries' economies. "This is completely out of proportion, and it is one of the first things that countries need to change," says Fayad. In addition to fulfill...
Education of consumers. Many GCC residents have no reason to suspect that water is in short supply. For instance, in the United Arab Emirates, there are vast expanses of green, on the golf course and in gated communities, giving the impression that water is plentiful. "There is a general lack of awareness in the region...
Tariff structure reforms.Better education would set the stage for the next essential change, involving tariff structure reforms. It is not a given that GCC governments should cover all the costs of delivering and consuming water in their countries; on the contrary, the region's excessive use of water shows the unintend...
Investments in desalination and other technologies. Desalination provides two-thirds or more of the potable water used in the UAE, Kuwait, Qatar and Bahrain, and will continue to play a huge role in the GCC's water development efforts. But desalination carries enormous economic and environmental costs. Despite a more t...
GCC countries will likely invest more than $100 billion in their water sectors between 2011 and 2016. Some of these investments will be in improved desalination technologies, which could involve solar energy or new ways of filtering out salt or making it evaporate. Among the most promising of these, from the standpoint...
GCC governments would also be wise to earmark a portion of their water-sector investments to seed the development of local desalination industries, a move that would take advantage of knowledge that already exists nationally and spur innovation. An ecosystem of local desalination industries might also create high-skill...
Wastewater reuse. Finally, GCC countries need to increase their use of treated wastewater. Reuse water, as it is also called, isn't used for drinking, but at one-third the cost of desalinated water it is a good alternative for activities such as maintaining the landscaping near public roads, irrigating non-food crops, ...
The GCC, and the wider MENA region, aren't alone in not having enough rain and groundwater to satisfy their current and future needs. Fresh water is a problem in many other countries including Venezuela, Cubaa and Ethiopia making water scarcity a global problem. AAs a result, scientists and governments all over the wor...
Sunday 12th February 2012. Before leaving the campsite we had a long chat with Pete and Gill who are travelling around for a few months. Pete used to own a car accessories business with over 125 employees in the greater Manchester area. He sold the business when he was 47 and retired to spend time travelling. Gill gave...
Today was Atlas Film Studio day we had heard it was worth a visit and it was on the way to Ait Benhaddou so we pulled up in excited anticipation outside. At 50 Dirhams each including our guide it was a worthwhile tour. The place is getting a bit shabby and its years since it was lasts used but the sets that we saw were...
I was surprised to learn that it took about 3 weeks to film 3 minutes worth of film. Apparently the studios have been favoured because of the perfect light that you get in this area of the world but I fear that sadly due to the technological developments in the film industry where most stuff is computer generated the d...
After the studious we headed to the Ait Benhaddou Kasbah which according to all the guide books is a must see. We parked up in the car park at the Kasbah Jay negotiated an overnight tariff with power supply of 30 Dirham (less then £3) so we were well set. We walked down the main street with the dogs to look for a lunch...
We climbed to the top of the hill that the Kasbah has been built on to see fabulous views over the surrounding countryside and we met a very nice Welsh couple Andy and Sacha while we were up there. They are travelling Morocco for 7 weeks and they had paid for a guide so they did us a tour on the way back down and showe...
We all felt we had earned a cheeky cold beer and as there was a fab bar with a window overlooking the Kasbah we made our way up there. We obviously have loud voices because another couple we had met at another campsite Roger and Sandy heard us coming up the stairs so it ended up 8 of us having a drink and a chat. Andy ...
If you are looking for a professional wedding photographer in the Cardiff area have a look at www.alsphotography.co.uk Andy does some fabulous landscape photos from their extensive travels too.

Saturday 11th February 2012. We managed to get ourselves organised by quite a respectable hour and headed off in convoy to the famous sign in town that Jay had scouted out. Apparently Michael Palin has been here in Zagore and was filmed next to the 52 days to Timbuktu sign so we decided to get a few photos too.
We headed back north through the fabulous Draa Valley to Ouarzazate stopping for lunch at a fab look out point on the way.
We reached the French/German stronghold of a campsite at Ouarzazate in the early afternoon and discovered that we were parked next to a couple of Brits (Pete and Gill) who we had met very briefly at the campsite in Zagore. They are a fascinating and inspirational couple more details later.
We needed more supplies so Jay, Ju and I walked into town in search for a certain super market which apparently sold beer. As I write this I feel like it sounds like we are all alcohol dependant but its strange how much you want something when you are not supposed to have it. Or is that just me! After a long walk we di...
We bought some chicken on the way back from the market which is a slight challenge because Moroccans like their chickens freshly killed and plucked so its hard to find a ‘dead’ chicken. However we did find one pre-killed version and got it chopped up and bagged to go.
Jay and Ju did the honors for dinner and we had a splendid SpagBol at Dave the Diner accompanied by our very special beers. [Camping Morocco, page 111, OUARZAZATE, Camping Municipal Ouarzazate, 45000 Ouarzazate from www.vicariousbooks.co.uk].
Jay and I took Loli and Charlie for a walk in the Palmerie which was a real adventure because we soon got lost and one palm tree starts to look much like another. We did eventually make it back to the campsite with a pair of very muddy dogs. Strangest incident of the dya was when loli lierally ran ‘through’ Charlie it ...
We registered our intent with Abdula to eat at the campsite restaurant which also advertises live music every night. We wrapped up watm and ate really well and when we had finished our meal the musicians arrived. The star of the show was a big guy playing a Moroccan Sitar accompanied by Abdula and his mates on numerous...
Thursday 9th February 2012. We had a tour of the Kasbah with Gale who is the French wife of the Moroccan guy who’s family owns the Kasbah. They run the campsite and tours of the Kasbah to raise money for the up keep and renovation of the Kasbah and its grounds. We walked through the gardens and although the small walle...
After a cheeky Mint tea with Gale and her husband we headed south direction Zagore via the local souk. The souk or market was just outside of town on the left after crossing the bridge over the river and it was a hive of activity. Apparently people come from miles around to trade goods and there were literally hundreds...
We left the souk and had a spectacular drive along the awesome Vallee du Draa to Zagora and our campsite.
Abdula gave us a warm welcome and invited us for a mint tea not before he had pointed out with an extremely concerned look on his face that Christina had a problem with her rear suspension. Apparently what she needed was some additional leaf springs and I was in luck because Abdula’s cousin was a mechanic and had such ...
After our cheeky mint tea and filling in the necessary paperwork Julie, Jay and I popped into town on the hunt for alcohol! We did find a supermarket which wasn’t that ‘super’ especially as it didn’t sell alcohol but luckily for us Jay in his best French which is really good found out that the local hotel across the ro...
We went to the ‘butchers’ which is a term I would use very loosely its more like some guy selling meat on the corner of the street. With Jays help we got some nice chunks of what looked like beef hacked off the carcass that was hanging up over the counter. Its fascinating the way the Moroccans keep and present their me...
Tina turned our meat into a fab curry for dinner which we ate in Dave’s Diner accompanied by copious amounts of the red wine that we had just bought. In fact I think we drank ALL the red wine we had just bought and finished off a box of white wine too. This rendered Jay and I seriously under the influence (I blame the ...
Wednesday 8th February 2012. We were planning to head south to Agdz today on our way to Zagora but first we were going to pop into town to see the Kasbah but more importantly to deal with the Catastrophic kettle Saga! Very often in life you don’t realize how important something is until you don’t have it. Well we now h...
Tuesday 7th February 2012. We headed back down the gorge and stopped off at some amazing rock formations that we had spotted on the way up. We parked up and took a walk along the river to get a better look. Apparently they are known as the ‘hills of human bodies’ and if you use your imagination they could be!
The drive to Ouarzazate was very picturesque with the snow topped Atlas mountains in the background. The campsite at Ouarzazate was the usual French/German stronghold but the Brits found a space never the less although we were surprised that it was so full.
We chilled in the afternoon then ate a dinner of bangers and mash in style in Dave’s Diner with Ju and Jay. [Camping Morocco, page 111, OUARZAZATE, Camping Municipal Ouarzazate, 45000 Ouarzazate from www.vicariousbooks.co.uk].
