Default 1994 850 Estate T5 Turbo FOR SALE

Hi Guys, I have for sale a 1994 M reg 850 T5 Turbo estate with 110k on the clock, genuine and a great service history, mainly Volvo. I've owned the car for about 11 months now and when I first posted on the forum prior to buying it one of the tech guys suggested it was quite a rare car, with the turbo pipe over the top of the engine.
The car is in very good order with a scuff to the bottom of the rear bumper, and one or two minor marks, but it looks superb in the dark green when polished! Has the original propellor alloys in good condition and excellent tyres, exhaust and runs EXTREMELY WELL. The only damage is a crease in the rubber of the front bumper and a dent in the drivers front wing which I have received a quote for £200 for from a very reputable paint shop who have done a good deal of work to my classic cars.
I also have a V70 T5 and believe me the 850 is not much slower. The acceleration is superb! Full black leather and great condition inside. The Heater works but off a single switch, so the air-con will need to be looked at. Seats are heated which work ok.
This really is a solid, sound and extremely fast and reliable car. In 11 months all I have had to do is replace the two front tyres and service it. There is five months tax and a long MoT. Am I being rude by asking £1200, or £1400 if I get the dent repaired for you? Give me a ring 07730 582 524. Cheers, Dave

I would have to say it would have to be the best 850 Turbo in the country to command that figure. SORRY
Mines a 94 L with a new engine and i paid £700 for mine

It's a joke really, these cars realistically should be worth a lot more. It's only economics and reg snobbery really that make prices so rock bottom.
