S60 D5 Geartronic 2005 260k miles

[calumscott]

I needed a new set of wheels for work so my trusty workhorse has to go.

If it wasn't for the fact that I need something tidier I'd have kept it. (Good news is that it was a great excuse to get a V70 D5 R-design! )

Anyway, it remains (for now) the most reliable and cheap to run car I have ever owned and I will be genuinely sad to see it go.

It (and my details) are on Gumtree here https://www.gumtree.com/p/volvo/Volv...uto/1196765626 just to save me posting it all twice.

Things that are wrong - it's developed the intermittent radio/12V socket fault which according to a thread or two here is pretty much guaranteed to be water ingress to the CEM above the drivers side pedals. It's got some dents in the roof from me unthinkingly putting my knees on it while tightening the nuts in the back my roof box. It's got a couple of dents down the C pillar on the nearside after I dropped a desktop (not a computer, the top of a desk!) on it. Nearside headlight outer "lens" was the victor in a fight with a pigeon although pigey did inflict a little damage... Other than that, it's carpark dings and the like - what you'd expect for a car that's been to the moon and is on it's way back.

Would love it to go to a good home because it's been awesome for me. I've got someone coming to see it tomorrow (01/11/2016) but if you're interested...
