Hi All

Going to look at an S60 this morning with the above reg, just wondering if anyone on here knows it at all. MOT history etc seems good and it will come with a years ticket and 3 month warranty, but nothing like speaking to an old owner is there!!!

Many Thanks

Wayne

MOT history shows it may need discs/pads - plus a few other bits that werent done last year when it failed... check carefully!

Mot history suggests that it hasn’t been maintained properly - the failed 18 test and subsequent pass tell their own story.

The linked one has a much nicer mot history, albeit a private seller and a T5. He has dropped the price from original asking 5,450 to now 3,250. Low mileage too.

Not mine and, of course, you can never really know what’s lurking. My XC70 doesn’t have a great history, but I’ve been sorting as I go and it came from my brother, who had also done a few bits. (Mine at least had had regular oil changes and timing belt done)
