2004 V70R for sale - needs work
Flash Green V70R Geartronic 2004 for sale. Glasgow.
It's had a full Volvo service history with manufacturers parts throughout but has now passed the point of maintenance costs I'm willing to bear. In need of new rear bushes, front brake hoses, a nearside front drop link replacement, steering rack is leaking and there is a loose wiring connection to a front accelerometer. Parts costs aren't too bad but the labour costs at Volvo put the repairs above what I'm happy to pay. It's got a mileage of 110,000 and has been a brilliant car for the past 12 years I've had it. If I had a workshop and tools I might have tried the work myself! The engine and gearbox have been running fine, DEM was replaced 3 years ago and the front Active Chassis shocks were replaced last year. Other niggles include drivers heated seat not working, satnav software not working and a couple of scratches on the bodywork. The MOT is up in a couple of weeks and I've been offered a trade in value that is OK but doesn't reflect the car it is. If someone is willing to put the work in themselves to bring the car up to scratch or is looking for a source of spares I'd rather the car went to someone who understands what V70Rs are! Looking for anything above £1500 otherwise look out for it at one of the auctions in Glasgow in a week or two. |

I might be tempted. Could the car be viewed in Glasgow this week? I could view at anytime as I'm on holiday this week.
