My trusty steed has to go due to purchase of new car

In brief

1996 T5s
125k FSH, some Volvo, some myself but the book is stamped
MOT Oct 2009
Tax till end of April
Immaculate half leather interior
Heated front seats
Front Electric windows
Electric sunroof
Woodtrim
Bailey dump valve
Brink Tow hitch
Powerflex top mount

This car has standard suspension, all top mounts + shocks are in excellent order and rear delta links were changed in June 08. Car has had a full stage zero + PCV refurb in feb 08 - ABS unit also repaired in Oct 08

Just had Brembo easy check front discs and a new battery

The bad bits (well its 12 years old!!)

A few dings and dents, mostly parking stuff, nothing major
Very small corrosion spot on front drivers wing,
Rear boot lid has been repainted at some point and the spoiler has slight lacquer delamination, again the car is 12 years old, it hasn't bothered me.


The car drives really well with all the performance that only a T5 can offer. The suspension work really leaves the car 'as new' very compliant and responsive ride.

Solid car and is ready for many more years of service. located in Co. Antrim

lol i'll travel within reason, my s60 came from newcastle (260 mile round trip for me which involved paying the friend who took me's petrol money and funding the s60 for the way back lol) expensive day out comes to mind :thumbs_up: but irelands a bit far

manual, I really just need to cash the car in as I need the money to do my Cat C + D drivers license.

If doing that hadn't been on the cards I'd keep hold of it for my other half to drive.
