Volvo V70R fwd for sale 1998 (S reg)
Volvo V70R fwd for sale
1998 (S reg) 240k miles For sale, hopefully to someone who is able to fix engine problem, car overall is in very good condition, but needs new engine and turbo. It was in daily use until it lost its oil on the motorway, oil cooler pipe failed, which has been fixed, and engine has had many flushes, and been in use for two and half years since. It does not use any oil, but is getting very noisy. It needs a new turbo and rebuild or replacement engine. Would have been able to do this myself five years ago, but not now. I would like to keep it as it’s better built than any of the new cars I’ve seen or owned, but now need the room, so it’s looking for a new owner. Here’s the details of the car, I’ve got lots of pictures, just need to work out how to share them. Currently MOT'ed, Taxed and insured and driven locally for short distances. I’m the second owner, bought car in 1999 No rust on car (except behind rear number plate) Been used the majority of its life for motorway journeys Excellent interior, dark cream suede/leather, rear seats as new, passenger, light wear, drivers, some wear. Very little wear on tyres, front ones have less than 2000 miles Factory fitted SatNav, serviced a few years ago, good working order, cd’s for UK 3 + 6 auto changer CD, good working audio system Driver and passenger powered, heated seats, drivers with memory Long service history, paperwork etc Passed last few MOT’s with no problems Have renewed many parts and kept in good working order over it's life Big overhaul at 200k miles (2013): Complete rear suspension overhaul at 200k miles, new rubber mounts, springs and self levelling kit, all from VolvoIssues: Lost oil on motorway 2.5 years ago, has been used for limited distances since, needs new turbo and engine replacement or recon. Gear box and clutch in very good condition.Anyone interested? Mark, Hertfordshire Last edited by markhardie; Nov 7th, 2018 at 23:45. |

Thanks for the candid description. I have an excellent T5 engine from an S reg V70, so would be interested. Would your car be fit for longer distances or need transported?
