'52 XC70 D5 SE 7-seater for sale - 80k miles

Our beloved XC70 has to go sometime in the next few months, as baby #3 arrives in February hot on the heels of a big Labrador and school friends/grandparents needing carting about. There's an XC90 on the horizon, and the wife is already in love.

Anyway, it's a 52 plate XC70 D5 Geartronic SE in dark green. Factory Satnav/TV with a newer DVD (2005 I think). 7-seat option (I'm trying to forget what this cost us to fit new from a dealer) with space saver spare, full beige leather, metal fold-down dog guard/cargo barrier, load cover, winter pack, 4-CD changer, done 80k miles. Fixed towbar with electrics fitted by us, only used for bikes and several small camping trailer trips to Cornwall - i.e. no caravans or horsefloats towed in the past if you are concerned about wear. Volvo rubber mats throughout incl in the boot, carpets included. Loads of receipts for servicing. Interior in well above-average condition. Exterior has usual minor scratches (nothing that won't polish out) and a few tiny dings visible in bright light / oblique angles.

Drives just lovely, no complaints. Never missed a beat in nearly 2 years of ownership. Will do 50MPG at 70 on a long run, typically 43-45MPG at 'normal' speeds :-) on a 500-mile run.

Wanting circa £10k for it. No hurry to sell, and eBay is the last resort. PM me if you are interested. Earliest we could probably sell is late October, as house sale/shift beforehand requires all our time/spare cash (there's £5k finance on it we need to clear before selling)

So looking for someone with a similar timeframe in mind. It took us 6 months to find this spec and condition, at the right price, so thought I'd get feelers out there now as this spec don't appear often.

Cheers

I guess you have sold your XC70 but if you still have it I would be interested to hear.
