V70R awd 1998

mrdave2003 · May 27th, 2009, 11:10

Saw this sitting on the forcourt of a local garage... obviously had to go and have a nose!

Its the web... http://dealerservices.autotrader.co..../stocklist.htm

On the whole it looked o.k, 114K miles which seem genuine. I'm a bit rusty on the phases of these but i'd hazard a guess at a phase 1 or maybe a 2. Its the 2.3 auto & AWD

If anyone fancies going to have a look, to save you some time I have listed some of the things I spotted which may be a good haggle point!

Good points..
new front bearing (passenger side)
Poly top mount
Towbar - non volvo
Roof rails

Bad points..
Heat sheild above turbo missing
C70 alloys - not sure what has happened to the original comets
Red stuff brake pads - not sure if this is a good thing or not?!
Yellow front struts - not sure what make and as above!
Aftermarket head unit although surround sound kit is still in place
Car has been smoked in
Trim missing from rear seat catch
No load cover
No floor mats
Dodgy lock on drivers door
Dent in bumper (front)

I'm sure with some TLC it could be brought back to tip top condition although i'd personally want to have a serious haggle on the price

Happy looking!!
