1995 850 T5 modified £650
Hi all!
It is with great reluctance that i'm parting with my baby, i'm moving house at the end of the month and a 30 mile a day commute over the moors isn't feasable at this MPG! So, here's the specs: CAR IS LOCATED IN WHITBY, NORTH YORKSHIRE! 128,000 miles - FSH to about 85,000 MOT'D 'TILL OCTOBER, TAX TILL MARCH 31ST. MODS: Stainless mesh front grille Kalmar Union Aircraft Aluminium front Strut brace Pipercross cone air filter Straight through exhaust Uprated lowered suspension springs (LOWERED 40MM!) Turbosmart boost controller Digital Boost Gauge Goodridge Stainless overbraid brake hoses Car is Silver with full black leather interior. Car has been well maintained, in the past 12 months it has had: New front suspension wishbones & bushes. Positive Crankcase Ventilation System replaced New plugs, HT leads, distributor cap & rotor New rear brake discs, front skimmed Rear calipers stripped & rebuilt. New pads all round. New front tyres (less than 1000 miles on them!) Power steering system flushed & refilled. BAD BITS: Front wheel bearing needs replacing (included in sale - just not had time to get it sorted!) little bit of rust starting at front and back of front wheel arches, rest of car is clear. Had a ding in the front passenger wing when I bought her and never got round to replacing it! Scuff on right hand side of bumper Couple of little 'dings' - hardly noticable. She doesn't burn oil or make any nasty noises and pulls as you'd expect! There's a couple of pics as attachments, I can email more if you message me! Regards, craig. |

Hi mate, is there any service history after 85,000? Do you have the original grille? Do you have pics of the dent in the wing and the rust on the arches?
Thanks, Lee |

There is no service history after the 85,000. I've done virtually all the work myself except for the swing arms as I had just come out of hospital and couldn't do it myself! To be fair, I'd be asking an awful lot more if it had FSH. It doesn't have any engine issues at all, doesn't burn oil, overheat, use coolant etc.
I think I kept the original grille (which had been painted black) but can't guarantee the litlle plastic clips are still with it! The rust is just surface stuff, will take a photo tonight and of the dent and post on here later. There is a proper volvo touch up paint and laquer in the glove box, so could be quick fixed! regards, craig. |

Well some chav ripped the drivers door mirror off last night when it was parked at the roadside for sale, so the first £550 cash drives away. I didn't want to sell her in the first place and this is just heartbreaking. I just want her to go to a new home now.
