Opportunity to own a much loved and well looked after car in great condition for its age. Surprisingly fast and great fun to drive; I am only selling due to arrival of company car and I need the driveway back!

Upgraded brakes including drilled and grooved discs, upgraded pads front and rear
Strut Brace across engine compartment
Lowered by 30mm Eibach springs
Sports panel air filter
Volvo front grill replaced with Heiko style black grille

All above modifications performed by Russell at RT Mechanics, one of the best Independent Volvo Specialists who would be happy to vouch for the car’s condition etc. RT Mechanics have also completed all servicing over the last 5 years including cambelt change in 2008.

Sony CD Radio with MP3 compatibility plus upgraded speakers and active sub-woofer.

Opportunity to purchase custom fitted Sony Sat Nav and Motorola voice operated Bluetooth telephone system.

Full Volvo service history from new

Wink Did I mention?

I waffled on so much when you came to buy the car I cannot remember if I said that she will run a lot better on higher octane fuel.

This is due to the Rica ECU upgrade, BP ultimate is good (97 Ron), Shell V-Power is better (99 Ron), or I hear really god stuff about the Tesc 99 Ron fuel, although I never tried it myself.

Also where the subwoofer is hidden under the passenger seat, you need to be a little careful moving the seat backwards or the cloth cover I have velcro'ed on to it will come of and everyone will see your sub...

Good to know you like the car, I lover it.

See you on the road sometime.
