850 R For Sale £800
 
Take a look on Pistonheads...just spoke to the guy...only needs £200 for an MOT.

Its an Auto by the way.

Do you have a link to the advert on Pistonheads?

I assume it's http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/1164810.htm ?

No mention of any history, no MoT, it *needs* to be cheap!

Re: 850 R
 
Too many miles,

very vague listing,

no interior pics,

And BLACK WINDOWS!!!!!!

Can't help it but I hate black windows more than graphite coloured wheels! They alway scream 'boyracer' and 'avoid like the plague' to me.

Cheers,

T

Front tints look illegal to me.

Good call.

Also, it looks like a write-off.....

HPI check says:

Plate Transfer

M6OGO was applied to this vehicle on 23/08/2003
This VRM has been recorded as being written-off
The insurance write-off was recorded on 30/01/2004 against a VOLVO 850
N187YBA was applied to this vehicle on 04/04/1996
There are no interests recorded against N187YBA

Bargepole springs to mind.. Someone will no doubt buy it thinking they are getting a bargain - they will then hate them as their world collapses never to buy one again..

Well, that wraps that one up. Thanks, John.

You didn't actually go to the trouble of paying the twenty quid for that report, I hope?

Cheers,

No worries. I had two checks left over from a pack of three I bought when I was shopping for a car a few months back so used one of them out of curiosity ;)
