Can I suggest a few more photos from different angles with a more picturous background ?
I always take my for sale pics near the seafront for example. (Even my old 2000 P2 Volvo looked great)
Personally i'd also try a different site for selling it. The one your currently advertising it on seems quite happy to point out the S60's bad points. I know all cars have them but you really don't need the website pointing them out to a prospective buyer.
Looking on Parkers your price seems about right. If your looking to get sold fast then maybe £250 drop will pull in a bit more interst.
Just my opinions.
Good luck with the sale.

Okay, cheers for the feedback. We have been offered £3k trade-in, thought it was a bit low hence trying to sell it privately. Will take some more photos and post them later....

Hmm, I'm posting on behalf of my husband and he is not feeling motivated to sell anymore.... I think he may have fallen in love with his car all over again.... It's frugal on fuel, but fast on the motorway, I think I'll have to work on him a bit more!
