Made me chuckle. Good job the Volvo wasn’t the last car through the auction otherwise your get me home option would have been zero.😂😂
There a flash green V70R on eBay at the moment but has no service history and the seller is a bit vague. Looks okay if you like white wheels and red callipers
Item number 223475582981

According to the gov MOT web site the R's MOT has expired. ( march 20th) So the car made £4k without an MOT and several mech issues.

Looks like my 2004R will be sleeping in the garage in the future and my 2014 V70 will be sleeping on the drive.

Cheers
Bob

Thanks guys, yes that was £4K plus commissions so even £250 plus for a trader!
White wheels not my bag but more so the vagueness plus it had been on Gumtree for ages. Speaking of which a silver car with private plate has reappeared, if your looking see the advisories from the last mot.

Here you go! I must stop looking at cars that are going to be a project when I’ve got a perfectly good D5 - wish i hadn’t found out that the insurance for an R is near identical to my oil burner.

Ballistic mileage but fabulous history and late model, could have been a good punt and may well have been for someone. With suspension replaced for mixed dampers it seemed to take half the fun away and then there a myriad of other components at over 300,000 miles does show they can last though.
The car to refer to mot advisories is a 2005 model on private plate.
