I assume you are the same Dean that messaged me on eBay - with the same opinion. You might not want my opnion, but I am going to give it anyway. Please find something else to do with your time. So apparently it's OK for dealers to ask what they want for their cars, but not enthusiasts that have poured countless hours into their pride and joy? Please keep your opinions to yourself if you are not interested in buying it.

6k for a 20v N/A 850 really is pushing it.
Maybe in 20 years when there's none left... GLWS though Cheers

Neither is people following me from eBay, a couple of days later (which I respectfully replied to previously) to bash out their opinion, again, on something that doesn't concern them. I don't find this constructive, it is unwelcome criticism. Twice. Quote:
Maybe I'll just keep it and have it as my wedding car

Exactly and thank you. As I said before I am in no rush to sell and the truth is for £2000 - £2500 max, I would keep the car myself.

I think it’s fine to give your opinion, politely and briefly, but we don’t need three pages of debate. The market will set the price, and we should all let it, without clogging up this thread with repeated opinions.
cheers James

In addition to the first post, which I cannot edit, it has also had the following (on top of other general maintenance/fettling):
• 2014: New genuine Volvo thermostat. • 2016: New genuine Volvo spark plugs. • 2017: New Bougicord ignition leads (OEM), fitted second hand fuel pump (looked much newer than original), new genuine Volvo fuel filter, new Mann air filter, new Bosch (OEM) cam position sensor and a new Crank sensor. All with the aim on making it a reliable car for many years to come.
