Default 1998 Volvo S80 SE £850.00 ono

Hi All...

Well i bought this car a few months ago to use to get me around whilst my project car was finished... Well, the project is finished now and I was originally thinking of keeping this as a spare car.. Alas, with a kid on the way and the other half leaving work it no longer makes financial sense, so has to go..

Here is a link to the e bay advert, the car is in fantatsic condition and viewing is highly recommended!!!!! I will be more open to offers on here than on e bay, so give me a shout if your interested....

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2211639266...84.m1555.l2649

Pete

Alright mate...

I am averaging 24-25 with it, but most of that is local driving and London Driving...

Does about 32 on a run at a steady 80

Hope that helps mate...

Exactly as stated in the e bay advert mate...

It needs the back up siren sorting to clear the alarm service message and at some point it will need the ETM looking at... I have not looked at it at all TBH, so COULD just need a clean...

But the car really is in fantastic condition and drives superbly... I am not just saying it, it really needs viewing to appreciate the condition.

My number is in the e bay advert if you fancy a chat...

Well looking on here, even if it does need doing, it's not a huge amount if cash to do so....

Its only tripped the message a couple of times in the time I have had it... And clears straight away... So not something that would need doing ASAP anyway... Hence why I have been a bit lazy and not even looked at it yet!!! lol

As said, my number is there if you fancied a chat mate... I think the car is a bargain...

Just wanted to say again guys that I am open to offers on the car....

Today is the day that my project car hits the road again, so this one will just be parked up and taking space.... Although I dont want to let it go for nothing, It will be costing me money just sat there, so feel free to make an offer..

The worst that can happen is that I say no!
