For model year 1995 a high performance version of the 850. br/>developed in part with Porsche. was released and designated the 850
T-5R. The vehicle was based on the 850 Turbo. utilising the engine
with a special ECU that added an additional 0. 1 bar of turbocharger
boost pressure giving the engine an extra 18bhp for a total of
243bhp and 250lb/ft of torque. The T-5R was renowned as a sleeper
car; despite its boxy. understated appearance. it was capable of
accelerating from 0 to 60mph in 5. 8 seconds with the top speed
electronically limited to 152mph. The engine tuning was
co-developed with Porsche. as was the transmission and other power
train components. Porsche also aided in designing some of the
interior such as the Alcantara seat inserts and nearly every
feature was available as standard. 1995 was the only year that the
model was badged as a 'T-5R'; the following year. as Volvo
recognised the vehicle's popularity. the model was renewed with the
designation '850R'.

This 1995 850 T-5R is presented in Gul Yellow; much like the
example found in the Volvo museum. This Porsche/Volvo
inspired example has over 15 service records stamped in its
comprehensive history file and is in stunning unmolested condition.
Imported from Japan in 2015. this righthand drive car is supplied
with a UK V5C and has recently been serviced. Other paperwork
supplied also shows that the cam belts were changed at 71. 00 miles
and a turbo timer fitted to protect the turbo. Supplied with
original Volvo over-mats. Volvo handbooks. a new MoT test
certificate and described as immaculate even underneath. this 1995
example is a real opportunity to own a wolf in sheep's
clothing.
