I traded in my V70 for a 330D coupe in March but I've had three emails now from the dealer wanting to buy it back. If it doesn't cost me an arm to hand back I'll be interested in this.

What's the other rims, almathea's?

Ok, bumping this, its back on the road after my illness in Aug, passed MOT with no issues, serviced at 85k, has no known issues.

Some of you I'm sure have seen this thread........
http://www.volvoforums.org.uk/showthread.php?t=150384

Its been to lots of people, I've checked everything possible and I'm now putting it down to my usage.

The original alloys are fitted and refurbished with 4 good tyres, 2 of which currently have only 2k on them, it has no more marks other than whats described above and has wanted for nothing in the time I've owned it.

I'll be removing the towbar and handsfree kit before sale unless the buyer would like to come to an arrangement for them.

Its has a full MOT from late December and is taxed until the end of Dec, with all this in mind, I am reducing the price but still asking £4250 as I think this is a fair price for what is a very good example.

Mileage is currently 86k but will increase as its in everyday use.

I'll try and get the car cleaned in the next few days and post some fresh pics

Its a nice looking car in the colour.

Dont take this the wrong way, but its pretty expensive for a pre-facelift 03 reg car.

If you are happy to take your time with the sale then no worries, but if you are seriously looking for a buyer within a short time frame I think a price closer to £3k is more realistic.

Thanks for the input, been offered £3000 trade buy price, its in Parkers at £4400, I'm willing to talk on the price, bare in mind also it has over £200 in road tax, its just been serviced and 10 months MOT included, whoever buys this car just needs to insure it and drive it.

Been a slight change in plan Joe, my Dad has replaced the S60, so once I sell this I'll be driving the S60 for a while, but I see if I can get a buy price for his and drop you a text mate.

Getting offers of £500 for the T5 Joe, I'm sure he'd do better on a private sale?

Car still here, towbar has been removed, so has the load liner and the phone kit, these can be refitted at an agreed price, otherwise I will be listing here once the car is sold, its going on a friends forecourt next week, so if any forum members would like it, I'll accept £3800. Alarm system service has appeared the last few days on the dash, I will try the battery replacement in the siren, if that fixes it well and good, if not it will be sold with this warning showing.

Remember this car has MOT to December, tax to end of December, timing belt replaced, full service (all filters), transmission flushed, new intercooler, coolent changed all at (or around) 70k, just serviced again at 84k, has genuine Volvo mats, refurbished alloys and all usual SE luxury
