Default 850 T5 Auto Estate for sale - MOT May 2020 - Green

It's with regret that it's now time for me to sell my beloved 850 workhorse. It's been fantastic for tip runs, house moves, Le Mans trips, stag do's, chucking the mountain bike in the back, and just driving. But I need to downsize my fleet due to having a baby on the way.

-850 T5 Auto 1995
-166k on the clock but cog failed - reckon its approaching 200k in reality (I've done c25k in the 4 years I've had it).
-MOT expires 20 May 2020
-Cosmetically far from perfect
-Starts and drives fine
-Its been a workhorse but I've looked after it mechanically, serviced annually, pads and disk when needed etc.
-Currently on 15' wheels with 4 matching Dunlops but will be including the original 16' Columbinas (these would need new tyres)

Have some other bits for sale separately - volvo radio with aux mod, and thule roof bars for models without rails.

£600 ono

Car is in East Leeds. Call on 07824726340.

Kind regards,
James

Hi James,

Can you give any more info on things like service history or aircon working etc?
Where abouts are you? You say east leeds where abouts as I'm in central lancashire.
Is the laquer peeled from the side of the car or just discolour?
Thanks

Some service history came with the car when I bought it, but it's far from comprehensive. I've kept some receipts from work I've done also.

-cambelt done at 140k (previous owner)
-thermostat and coolant changed Apr 2016
-front pads replaced Sept 2016
-rear disks and pads Oct 2018
-oil and filter change every year

Air con doesn't work. Well, a regas sorts it for a couple of months but it then leaks out.

I'm in Kippax just off the M1 J46.

The paint along the off side is faded/blemished. Also, I've noticed it's not obvious from the pics but the bonnet is navy blue also.
