Unhappy Volvo V40 CD 1998 broken cambelt FOR SALE

View piccys here: http://i1047.photobucket.com/albums/b473/skostar/

Volvo v40 CD
Red
188,961 miles
MOT 30 OCT 2010, taxed until 31 OCT 2010. I plan to get that refunded unless you want to buy the balance?
Some service history to about 120k then regular oil changes after that.
Full leather - hole on drivers seat
Original mats
front and rear e/w, e/sunroof, c/l (both original keys and blingers!)
6x CD autochanger (original), aircon (needs regas), Heated seats and mirrors.

Inside, cut in the carpet to rear of handbrake (due idiot mechanic). Small wear hole to drivers seat, else generally good. It needs a good vacuum but it will look fantastic when done.

Outside, needs a t-cut on offside, nearside was resprayed to blend in a minor ding to the front so much shinier. Rust shown in pictures, scrape to the rear offside quarter.

Drives well, occasionally the starter motor fails to engage - requires a clean and grease. Handbrake limited use.

Otherwise before the cambelt went on the motorway the engine and gearbox and clutch were fine. When the cambelt snapped it made no discernible banging sound, I coasted in in neutral fairly sure of the issue!

I would mend the car myself but I planned to get something bigger anyway.

Its located in Weybridge for viewing, contact me for details. Open to offers, it would be a shame to scrap it.

Some extra info on the car and mistakes.
Its a 1997 registered April 1997.
The tyres are 3 x Michelin pilots, of which one is barely legal. The other two are 4mm tread approx. The other tyre is a Nexen and is practically brand new.
The spare is brand new and a normal but slightly slimmer tyre.

Its a 2.0 Petrol B4204S btw so the head listed below won't be much use to you!

Thanks

sorry for hijacking your thread but for anyone interested in getting that car, I've a head cyclinder, provided that your own head cylinder is kaputt (re-skimmed) for purchase in order to get that car going, based on it being a 1.9TD D4192T

Cheers bren

Courier can be arranged.

- LAST CHANCE - LAST CHANCE - LAST CHANCE -
I have arranged for the car to go to Car Heaven on Saturday 28th at 9am. Think its destined for the crusher for £120.
If anyone wants to buy it before Saturday 9am then make me an offer.
It has half a tank of fuel in it! That should double its worth!

Thanks
