Default Volvo S60 53 d5 se -repairs required

Hi guys,

Bit fed up with my purchase which owes me over 1k now so offering it to a new owner for a bargain hopefully who can keep her on the road.
She's a dark blue s60 d5 with 125k miles.
Since I have owned her I have fitted a new intercooler, cleaned egr pipework, repaired seat bolster and fitted emergency pull to the bonnet catches.

Bad bits
She broke down on the second day I owned her to which I have now found out it needs a new i tank fuel pump. She still runs and drives but will cut out when down to the red.
Yesterday I filled her up fully to find she leaks from the sender, I guess previous owner has damaged the seal so ideally this would be replaced at the same time.
Bonnet cable snapped.
A/c works but not quite as cool as expected. A regas will sort it.
Alarm siren faulty.
Slight crease on one of the rear door. Easy to miss, no paintwork damage at all.
Wheels could do with refurb
Centre console by handbrake cover missing
Limited paperwork but service book completed to 100k

Good bits,
Moted until March 2018
Full black leather interior with heated seats all working.
All electrics work fine inc radio and all windows.
Drives and brakes well as is if all other items considered.
Rear seats fold down for huge storage space.
4 good tyres
Clutch and brakes good. No slippage or pulling.
I have a replacement bonnet cable

It's a shame but I really haven't gell'ed with the car.
A solid day with some spares the car will continue tanking along I'm sure for hundreds of thousands of miles more.
I wanted to be honest and hopefully the new owner will know exactly what they are buying. Unlike me
Will add some pictures later.
I'm located in Birmingham and looking for £650 or nearest offer
