Default 850 R Auto Saloon White

Volvo 850 R Auto Saloon




This is a fairly unique car as it is believed to be the only white 850 R saloon in the UK

I acquired this fantastic car from another VOC forum member (Georgey Dee) on 12/04/2008. George really looked after this car and spent lots of money keeping it in excellent condition. I have meticulously maintained this car and lavishly spent thousands keeping it in maintained to a very high standard. I have all previous MOT’s and document folder with all work that has been carried out to this car from day one.

If you are looking for a high specified 850 R you will not be disappointed with this very capable low mileage car.

Full Service History
MOT: March 16th 2012
TAX: May 2012
Mileage: 134,118 miles
Colour: White
Body Type: Saloon
Transmission: Automatic

I had a brand new automatic gearbox supplied and fitted by MRG on 08/07/2010 at a cost of just under £3,000. In October 2010 I had the spring seats and support plat’s replaced with genuine Volvo parts (the parts alone cost £225.82 from FRF Volvo). Everything works as it should including air conditioning and climate control.

Here is a list of the modifications made to the car:

Suspension & Handling:
Koni SSK suspension kit
IPD anti roll bars (front and rear)
IPD drop links
Volvo front strut brace
Volvo 302 brake discs
Carbotech XP8 front and rear brake pads (spare set of rears still in box)
Motul RBF 600 brake fluid
Goodridge brake hoses
Poly tie bar bushes
Front lower poly wishbone bushes
Poly top mount stabilising bush
The battery has been moved to the rear boot and replaced with a race gel type

Performance:
MTE stage 2 remap
Full Feritta exhaust system
Custom Simota air intake system
TD04 16t turbo (reconditioned by Turbo Technics on 21 April 2009 @ £402.50)
Throttle body and inlet manifold ported by Tim Williams
White Injectors (reconditioned by forum member)
Volvo reverse inter cooler pipe work
Devils Own water injection
Oil cooler for automatic transmission (pod mounted temperature gauge)
Magnecor ignition leads
S60 R exhaust manifold
Oil catch tank
All vacuum turbo hoses recently replaced

The car also benefits from hands free system for safe driving
The Volan alloys are in very good condition having recently been refurbished (powder coated) I also have a fair few spares that will go with the car, I am not selling these separately they will be going with the new owner.

4 Metis alloys with good tyres and plenty of tread (these will fit over the 302 discs) and two spare tyres also with lots of tread left.
Spare set of Volan alloys
New radiator with fan
Inter cooler
Ignition coil
About 20ltrs of methanol
Set of front callipers with Goodridge hoses
I have the original air box and turbo pipes should you wish to change back to original set up, this will also come with blue Samco turbo hoses.

Price: £4,600
Telephone 01726 77665

The car is based in Cornwall I live very close to St Austell train station and Newquay airport is not too far from me also, I can meet any potential buyer from those locations work commitments permitting.

Can't believe your selling it Steve, lovely looking car and as you say rare in white.

Best of luck with the sale, hope it goes to a good home who will cherish it.
