thinking of selling my 2000 XC classic

steve m · Aug 9th, 2015, 10:11

hi all, as the title suggests I'm thinking of selling my V70 xc classic and wondering what its worth. the body is as straight as a die, with a few stone chips on the bonnet, a FULL volvo service history, detatchable tow bar, fitted by volvo garage. I bought the car with high mileage at 194000 (its now on 198000)' with the last service done at 192000 - by volvo yet again. the black leather interior is really good for its age, even the drivers seat bolster shows little sign of wear, with front seats heated. its a 2.4 petrol engine but sounds really good, and according to all the reciepts from volvo very little work has actually been done.

so whats my car worth anyone ??

hello mate, yes its all present and correct although the guy did say that he'd had the rear prop sahft of for a while but put it back on to sell it

so has anyone got any idea or do I put it on ebay and hope for the best ???

Well, what problems does it have? Auto or manual? Colour of exterior and interior?
Why did the prop get removed and then replaced?
A few photos would help no end.
Are you in a rush to sell?
We also have no idea what mot is on it, previous owners, advisories on latest mot, or what constitutes a full service history in this case.
These factors could alter the price wildly between 400 and 1400.

sorry, seven former owners, and its an auto (4 speed). The heater fan has decided to be a bit dodgy - start when it wants.The MOT finishes mid december and sailed straight through with no advisories. All the other questions have already been answered in the first statement, and oh, not rushed at all really. The wife has decided I got enough cars on the drive as it is

as far as the "full service history", everything was done by volvo. Every nut bolt or washer come from hatfied ( the NDC for volvo parts ), even down to the tyres. All services, parts and even valeting has invoices in a file. The service book is stamped up to 192000, all by a volvo garage. I will get photos done when the car returns
