The end of an era

EdmundIJones · Aug 4th, 2012, 20:06

It's with a heavy heart that I will from today be ending my love affair with my Volvo V70 T5. It's only been 10 months but as they say, if you love someone you have to let them go.

If anyone is interested in a 2000 (x reg) Volvo V70 T5, 96K miles, new MOT & service (both last week), good condition in and out let me know, around £1700 ono.

Based near Devizes in Wiltshire.

On that note, I have to say good bye to the V70 board, you've been really helpful and very friendly.

On a positive note, I'm not going far, I bought a 2004 reg Volvo XC90 today

I'm very impressed with it and just a few minor niggles to address.

All the best
Ed

Hi, done the same myself last month .Changed my Rreg V70R to a XC90 D5
to go with our V70awd D5 .
So now have two dirty diesels and no fast R.
Still it is not a bad beast.very good for loading up and towing the caravan.
I hope you like your new car and cruise around instead of whizing about.
You won't feel the bumps as much!

Regards Rogerb.

I'm loving the XC90 at this point, just spending my free time cleaning it up and addressing the niggles.

Is it wrong that I'm dragging my feet on selling the V70 T5?

Let it go - you know it makes sense.
