Volvo 850 Auto 2.5 20v For Sale. Immaculate. Open to Offers.
 
Selling my 850 as expecting a baby.

Its been very well looked after. I bought the car in December 2015 from the original owner, who had it from new.

Last service was done 2nd May 2016 which included spark plugs, thermostat, fuel filter, oil filter, air filter, oil change and coolant change.

Current Mileage is 100400k (I am still driving it but happy not to if a buyer leaves a deposit - I do about 30 miles a day in it)

No knocks or bangs when driving. Solid when driving in all conditions - its an 850 after all :-)

Elec Seats
Elec Sunroof
Radio, Tape and CD changer
Elec side mirrors
Cruise Control
Front Heated Seats
12th Aug 2016 - new ignition switch, off side anti roll bar link and brake fluid.

Comes with a stack full of Volvo/Volvo specialist service history.

It's classed as a 'classic' car so benefits from classic car insurance, which is considerably cheaper then normal car insurance.

I would like £800 but open to offers - If you're interested then please get in touch.

Pictures to follow.

Thanks

Looks rather splendid! Good luck with sale. I wish I'd spotted two weeks ago. Having been looking for over a year for a nice S70 or 850 to replace my much-underused Saab I finally gave up ten days ago. My daughter wanted to trade her old Nissan Note for a new Mini, the part ex offer was rubbish and so I bought the Nissan from her. I really only need a car for a ten-minute commute and the diesel Saab never even really warmed up! Plan A was a nice older petrol Volvo, but when nothing came along it seemed as though the little Nissan although not my first choice, was just too good to see it passed on into the trade for peanuts.

Having said that I am still hugely tempted by your 850! Other prospective buyers would also be asking these next questions - when was the cambelt last changed, and does the aircon work?

Cheers

Thanks for the compliments.

Cambelt was done at 86500k.

Im not sure about the air con, someone else asked me that today so I went I warmed her up and blasted the cold air with the air con on, but im not sure if thats just the cold air from outside or the air con itself - its a common thing to go on these 850 what ever model.. I will try to find out.

But ive had a change of heart.. im going to keep her for a little while yet, until my new car (S60) is on the road.

But happy to discuss a sale when im ready to to sell.
Thanks

That looks beautiful!

I am sure you'll have no problem selling it when the time comes...

Must admit, the only car I've ever truly regretted selling is my old 300,000 mile V70 so I can quite understand your change of heart.

Please do bear me in mind if, as and when you do come to sell.

Cheers
