S70 2.0 10v FOR SALE

Definitely a Cruiser, not a Bruiser!!..

Due to a change in marital status, I have recently lost the regular use of a garage/allocated parking space, so have to let my S70 go..! Bought not quite a year ago, the plan was always to bring it back to standard and then run it as a daily, but with home-life changing I’ve had very little opportunity, and those that I do have are getting fewer and farther between.

Car was bought last year for £850, and well over £1k has been spent in that time.

Addressed in my ownership:

Serviced (gen Volvo plugs & filters) and performance panel air-filter fitted;
New (second hand) headlights and indicators fitted;
Timing Belt / Water Pump changed (that was a sore one);
New Battery fitted;
Brakes serviced, callipers cleaned and lubricated;
Original 15” alloys refurbished and painted Anthracite grey (new, but cheap, tyres added);
Wheel tracking sorted;
Electric aerial replaced with manual unit (still have the electric unit, but it doesn’t retract fully);
Heko wind deflectors fitted.

Issues to note:

Body wise I would describe it as a 10ft car……looks better from 10ft away than up close! It is passable however, so was going to be the last issue I addressed as the car is fully functional as-is;
Remote fob has never worked, probably because the car suffers from the standard door micro-switch issue (fuse has also been removed in an effort to stop the battery draining);
There seems to be a slight water leak in the boot – not yet established where from, but no rust/rot has developed, so I’ve just kept an eye on it.

The basics:

MY1999, ‘T’ Plate, Petrol, Manual;
Circa 90,500 miles on the clock;
Navy paintwork, with electric windows and sunroof, half navy leather interior;
MOT valid until 9th August.
Car located N/E Scotland (n/w of Aberdeen) - Buyer to collect.

Price-wise, I want the £850 purchase price back, nothing more, nothing less.

Pics available on request.

I've PM'd you

Regards

Mark

**Bump**

** BUMP Again **

MOT expired last week, although car hasn't moved for several months! Much as I'd love to keep her I just can't.

Price now £700 OVVNO.

Thanks

Roger, I know you've reduced the price, but as it's now without an MOT I'd have thought that's going to be a bit of a sticking-point.

Can't you run it through to get a new ticket?

Say £45 to get a pass & that'll reinforce your asking price?

Just a thought.

** BUMP AGAIN **

Car needs to go ASAP - Much as I'd love to keep her I just can't.

Price now £550 OVNO.

(Buyer to collect)

Thanks

** No Longer For Sale **

Gonna persevere for the next few months, get the car MOT-ed and see what happens in 2020.

Thanks

S70 2.0 10v FOR SALE... £500.
 

FOR SALE..SPARES OR REPAIR

Following a trip to the garage, and receiving a quote in excess of £2k, I have decided to concede defeat and put my S70 back up for sale.

The basics:

MY1999, ‘T’ Plate, Petrol, Manual;
Circa 92k miles on the clock;
Navy paintwork, with electric windows and sunroof, half navy leather interior;
MOT valid until mid-Jan 2021
Car located N/E Scotland (n/w of Aberdeen) - Buyer to collect.

The extras:

Serviced (gen Volvo plugs & filters) and performance panel air-filter fitted;
New (second hand) headlights and indicators fitted;
Timing Belt / Water Pump changed @ 89k miles;
New Battery fitted 2018;
Brakes all replaced since 2018;
Original 15” alloys refurbished and painted Anthracite grey (c/w cheap tyres, all legal except one which has been rubbing);
Heko wind deflectors fitted.
Mudflaps front and rear

Some of the items that need to be replaced are only advisories at this stage, whilst others will need addressed before the MOT in January - ultimately I do not have the money, and without a driveway/garage of my own anymore I cannot attempt to fix what is required.

As above I am unable to break, so car will need to be sold complete.

Can be driven, is still legal and relatively roadworthy, but may be better being trailered away.

£500. No offers.

Pictures and list of items required available on request.
