Default 1997 V70 TDI with new MOT

I've had this SORNd for the last couple of months as we just haven't been using it, until 6 months ago it was my daily and then very occasional backup car.

Just put it in for MOT this morning and it's sailed through with no advisories.

240,000 miles
140bhp tdi manual
Capable of 60mpg, I did that from the lakes to London and back last year. Trip said 67, I filled it at the same pump and it worked out at 60.
Towbar fitted with twin electrics
It is due for a cambelt and a service - I normally do these things myself but I don't have time to.
I bought brand new headlamps for it last year so these are much brighter than the faded ones most have.

It's CD spec so has just about all the available options apart from the Dolby centre speaker. Stitched door cards like the R which don't come away like most, sunroof, climate etc.

It's on 16" XC alloys with nearly new Avon winter tyres on, these are fine to use all year round, but are exceptional in cold weather.

The bumpers are a bit scruffy but it's done 240,000 miles and it's the only one I've had with original paint on the bumpers...

Would need to be collected from Cumbria LA20.

Looking for £950 ono

I'll put some photos up later but if you want some sooner send me your email address or whatsapp
