Volvo 855 T5 Manual for sale in Danbury, Essex
It is with great sadness I have to sell my 855 T5. I have had it for a few years now and spent a lot of time on it. I would dry store the car if I had somewhere, however that isn’t a possibility.
I am selling the car with what I think is a premature turbo failure. There is a whine/whistle at WOT above ~4k rpm. I have tested and inspected the boost system and am taking a guess at a damaged exhaust turbine. The car makes full power and drives as normal. Annoyingly there appears to also be a slow coolant leak from the radiator (takes several weeks to notice coolant drop at 350 miles a week). I must stress that the car can absolutely be driven away as normal and I am still using it daily. The car is on just under 140k miles, MOT until September 2020. I have fitted 16” Alcar steels sprayed in silver (by me) with Michelin PS3 tyres all around including a matching spare in the boot. 5mm tread front and 7mm tread rear. The original bare Columba wheels will be included. I will also include the original flywheel, driveshafts, diff and new spare seals/gaskets I have put aside. New oil, filter and sparks plugs just fitted a few days ago. I have a stack of receipts for all the parts listed below. 2 spare keys and an alarm fob. Jobs completed over the last 3 years: Suspension refresh totalling ~£750 New SKF driveshafts All new FAG and SKF wheel bearings New fuel pump New Meyle HD wishbones New Meyle drop links New Meyle inner and outer tie rods Volvo PCV kit Volvo radiator New front brake lines New fuel filter and bracket INA timing belt kit and water pump at ~100k miles New Intake and exhaust manifold gaskets Sunroof glass removed, frame stripped painted and glass re-bonded Rear wiper mechanism repaired and new bush fitted New Volvo boot lock New slave cylinder Odometer gear replaced New coil, leads and cap New Brake discs and pads New Hand brake shoes New throttle cable Gas strut dog guard fitted Modifications over the last 3 years: Ferrita 3” down pipe with 100 cell cat Ferrita 2.5” cat back exhaust 16T angled flange turbo DO88 Intercooler DO88 black charge pipes and some coolant pipes TTV “Lite” flywheel 850R clutch Quaife ATB differential Eibach springs Volvo front strut brace 300HK chipped ECU (original ECU also included) Braided clutch line GROM Bluetooth kit with hands free I’m looking for £1000 and I would like the car to go to a good home. I should think it would be worth more like £3000 in perfect order. I can add some better pictures when the weather improves! https://photos.app.goo.gl/w3cwL71Jdp7tqn1U9 Last edited by milgo86; Dec 26th, 2019 at 16:49. |
