Default C70 2.4T 55k

So another C70 is up on the market...Hopefully my one will attract a buyer ...Although I am having to grudgingly sell this as I can't keep 2 cars...

This one is a 2.4T in Metallic dark red with 55k verified miles on the clock and 2 previous owners...3 including myself. She was owned by a manager at Braydon Motor Co before myself and was a Cat D (Dated: 11/05/2005), which is a fair while ago.

Spec is usual C70 stuff working cold air con, working headlight wipers and washers...everything works (which is why I paid £3k for it back in January).

Good bits:

Cambelt + waterpump, aux belt etc all changed at 43k by Braydon Motor Co

ETM Cleaned @ 43k also by Braydon Motor Co whilst they did the Cam-Belt…they showed it to me prior cleaning and tbh it was clean…but I’m just fussy…

Recent tyres (No budget stuff, Conti's on the front and Bridgestones on the back)

Brake upgrade to 302mm discs and Police Pads (Very good!)

Brake fluid changed and replaced with Motul RBF600 Fluid when the above brakes were fitted

Cruise Control

Cold A/C

Usual C/L, E/W, ABS etc

Oil + Air filter + Oil Filter changed @ 48k and 52k, both times with genuine Volvo bits and Mobil 1 10W40 Oil

Cream leather interior, no rips or tears but a bit of wear on drivers side bolster as per usual

Fully working SC-901 3CD Auto-changer head unit with Dolby Surround fitted

Working headlight wipers and washer + recent blades

2 sets of keys with new batteries in the fobs

Service history since I have had the car, any prior to that is at Braydon Motor Co


She is MOT’d till January and Taxed till January too…so as long as you’re insured you can drive her away…


Bad Bits as with any car:

Small crack on rear light, though barely noticeable but as I said before Im just a fussy bugger

Scratch + shallow dent on bottom of drivers door (This left me reeling as it happened ON the first day I bought her whilst she was parked up at work…polished it and managed to make it almost unnoticeable)


I drive the car with respect, i.e. on start up I leave it to idle for a few mins so the oil circulates properly, and I allow the car to cool down once I’m at my journeys end…I never turn the car off when the cooling fans are running. I drive like an old man (no disrespect to older members of the forum) and have spent a pretty penny maintaining this car.


I’m looking for realistic offers around £1800 o.n.o ; She is a clean car with No modifications. After looking around on here and Ebay I believe I selling this quite cheap for what it is but only as I will have my other car on Friday so need this sold...

I work shifts so No time wasters or Test Pilots please, If a test drive is wanted then I will drive unless you have insurance...I have had a car stolen before after being assaulted so please do not take it personally if I am wary...

I've decided pending a deal with Braydons to sell the car back to them, that I will lower the price by £50 daily...I do need to try and shift this by Friday folks...
