Default 2008 (58) Volvo S60 2.0T SE LUX - £2000

For sale is my 2008 (58) Volvo S60 2.0T SE LUX

Registration date is September 2008, making this part of the last run of P2 Volvo S60s as global production was stopped on 31st March 2009.

Mileage: 144,100
MOT expiry: 08/01/2019

Overall, the car is in very good condition given the mileage. It's not perfect, but I have looked after it to the absolute best of my ability during my ownership and I know it inside out, so ask if you have any questions just ask.

Things to note:
  • The drivers seat is a little darkened from jean ink etc over time, but no rips or tears.
  • The passenger rear seat backrest has a scratch.
  • The handbrake gaiter clips are broken (accidently broke this when replacing handbrake cables) so could do with replacing, but is completely cosmetic.
  • The rear bumper is slightly mis-aligned at the top edge due to an old lady driving her Toyota Corolla into the back of it (low speed) on 13th November 2014 (the day after I bought it!!). I could not see any structural damage or intrusion anywhere so did not bother with any insurance work but you are fully welcome to inspect it if you're worried about this. See picture below showing the spot.
  • There is a small oil leak that appears to be coming from the oil cooler module at the back of the sump. This is very common and not a difficult fix. Unfortunately I don't have time to fix it! - https://www.volvoforums.org.uk/showthread.php?t=227622
  • The alloy wheels have some kerb damage and scratches
  • In my opinion, the shock absorbers and top mounts will need replacing soon. No leaks but the shocks are getting a bit stiff.
  • Unfortunately I cannot find the original service book/manual. I'm sure I have it somewhere and will post it to you once I find it. However I do have the receipts/paperwork from previous owners and my own receipts in a folder.
  • My scan tool returns 0 ECM codes.

The car has a very nice specification and is in great condition with excellent tyre tread all round, brand new discs + pads + shoes + handbrake cables all round, + a new battery. Oil and filter has just been changed.

I will not accept a penny less than £2,000 so please do not make offers (unless you fancy paying more?!!)

Engine Spec:
- 180 Bhp
- 240 Nm between 1850-5000rpm

Final price drop... £1,450.

Autotrader valuation is £1900, so this is now a huge bargain. I need the room on my driveway now...

WBAC is the 'cash converters' of the automotive industry.

Their valuations are outrageous half the time!

Absolute bargain for someone to be had here. If it wasn't for the fact I'm selling my T5 I'd have been all over this. GLWTS

Total bargain. Looks like I'll be keeping my '58' S60 SE Lux 2.0T for some time if this is the kind of price level they're at now. Excellent specced last of the line P2's.

They're not even bad on fuel, why bother with the complexity of an equivalent diesel - it'd be 2x the price! 40mpg on the motorway! Best of luck with the sale.

I nearly sold my S60 2.0t last year but instead got a BSR package and spent a bit of money on it and it's a superb car, don't k ow what I'd change it for tbh!
