1999 V70 T5 in Nautic Blue

[XCR]

Regrettably now for sale having had a stack of work done recently with very very few miles since.
Every effort has been made to hang on to this one but being car number 3 unfortunately it must now go.
And go it does ! Runs sweetly (and quieter than my 2017 petrol Mercedes !) and power delivery is breathtaking.
Not ULEZ compliant so very sadly it must be sold as work is now taking me into London on a twice weekly basis.

Welcome gentlemen to the very reluctant sale of my 1999 T5 Auto

which has a fully working Electric Glass Sunroof, Cream leather in excellent condition, Immaculate engine bay, new Driveshafts/CV joints, Tyres and Brakes....Rubber Boot Mat and the load cover was fully restored with new parts ....driving lovely with smooth and strong power delivery through the auto 'box which features the Winter Pack....Upgraded to projector headlights and indicators but otherwise completely standard.
Full Service History with Cambelt and Water Pump @ 133242
All Old MOTs...stacks of paperwork...one Key, one fob.
Mileage today shows 158146

Some recent work carried out - correctly and using Genuine Parts only include, but not limited to....
Service @ 154608 - 16/05/21
Service @ 155748 - 23/04/22
A new Power Steering Pump
A new AC compressor
A new Radiator
VVT Solenoid
Shocks and Strut mounts
All with recent bills for £2000 plus.


This very nice example is being sold simply due to lack of use
(we actually bought it back from the guy we sold it to !)
Theres a few smart repairs (front bumper and rear NS door small scuffs) to make completely mint but otherwise it is extremely smart.

£4250
Flexible daylight viewing easily arranged.

In the politest terms possible could I please ask that discussions with genuine, interested parties take place via PM only and, though it disappoints me to have to ask, could the forums usual 'valuation experts' please keep their opinions to themselves. Please.
This is a for sale thread, not a discussion on the values of these cars.

I'm near Guildford, Surrey

Selling here initially, then on to eBay.....so spare me the eBay pain and buy this great car and you will become the fourth forum owner.

Any questions please PM me.

Thanks,
Mark.

This car is spot on. With documentary evidence to back up all work.
Being the first of the month, another Direct Debit for Car Tax and Insurance went out of my account today for a car thats not being used.
With that in mind I'm considering best offers, comments or questions on this thread.
Ignore the last part of my ad 'Via PM only' - which I'm unable to edit...

Bump.
One more day before its advertised on eBay.

Your car looks stunning mate. Hopefully you're not in a rush to sell and can bide your time. I'm sure you'll get what you want if you can afford to wait it out. I hope it goes to a good home. Lovely motor.

Beautiful V70. Just push the button on the eBay listing. Forums are among the worst places to sell good examples in my experience. That car will sell on eBay in less than a week.

Thanks for the comments guys, the fact that the car wants for nothing is the main reason for keeping it....however....we now need a fairly capable, smallish 4x4 that we don't mind sticking a wet spaniel in and mooching around the lanes with mountain bikes etc....

We're thinking Skoda Yeti.

With that in mind, the other Volvo is now going too !
Heartbreakingly, the C30 T5 R-Design will be sold soon.

What a pair they will make....and, though its a long shot that someone will want both, a good discount in return for making life easy would be forthcoming.

I'll compose aproper ad for the C30 T5, but for now, its on 88k, FSH, Electric Silver Metallic, Leather, Custom S/S exhaust which sounds superb...recent work...brake upgrade etc...mint condition and a seriously fun car !

PM received.
Alan, this is the asking price.
Its just had half the asking price spent on it.
Its a very fair price.
If you have an offer to make, come and see the car.
Best wishes,
Mark.

If there is anyone after a V70 T5 THIS is the 1 to have, it really is a very very good example indeed and drives just superb and wants for nothing, its as genuine as the seller, Mark is a top bloke and very welcoming, very much worth seeing and driving.
