Default N reg, 850 for sale metalic green"cheap"

hi all,
had this car a while and due to a ban it sat for a bit.
its a saloon,full cream leathers,17 inch wheels like the t5r,no tax or mot but i assure you 2 tyres will get it threw the mot.

starts 1st time every time but i have noticed the indicators some times dont work but a slap of the steering wheel and they do,i think this is a loose relay as i had to mess with the relays before.

this car does have a alarm but i have no frobb,volvo assure me they can get a fob and programme it for around 50.

this is the N reg with transponder key so immobilised.
what else can i say hhmmm around 120,000 miles on the clock,back passenger arch paint has dulled and some ones pulled the head light wipers off.
the only rust i can see is drivers side mud guard where the mud guards come loose you can see it,very slightly.

other then that the car is in very good condition,i would say it could do with a service asap as its sat for a while, 3/4 of a tank of petty in there too.

i know i could sell or weigh in the rims for 100-150 and the car for 150-200 so im asking 450 for quick sale.

im in birmingham and ive been as honest as possible,if you want to come and view please dont come to kick tyres.

i would say 2tyres for mot and a oil service,which i have the oil and filter for and you will have a very nice car.

reason for sale is i just cant afford to run 2 cars.

please pm with any questions

forgot to say,im 3rd owner and 2nd owner owned it a month and the car is on a sorn so im guessing you will need to toe it home.

if you choose to drive it thats your choice.

tyres are good enough to get you home but the walls on 1 will deffo fail mot,you might get away with the 2nd.

the tyres are the parrellis that are suppose to save the rim from curbing but take the impact then fail mot,so pretty stupid idea really.

Shame you've decided to sell up. If you change your mind you're more than welcome to pop over for a coffee if you want help tackling some service items. Good luck with your sale, oh and some pictures may help

will get some up.
if you have ever gone past the ridge way and noticed the green 850,thats it.

just a case of not being able to afford to insure 2 cars.

i may sell this my mazda and get a t5r,petrols another problem with these and works not always guaranteed for me.

where up sutton are you?

really need this off the drive asap.
cant beleive theres no interest at all.

ive seen t5rs and to look at you would not be able to tell any differ.
i know you can get them with tax and mot for 400-1000+ 400 quid youd get with 180,000+miles on clock though,this has 120,000 odd.

if you already have a 850 you could take the wheels and leather and weigh it in or break it.

could even break it for a lot more.

would any one be interested in any parts if i broke it?
not saying im going to break it but if theres enough interest then i may.
please post here what your interested in and what you would like to pay and if enough interest i may break.

its to nice to break but i need it gone off the drive so any sensible offer considered.
atb

ps im not desperate so please dont offer 100 quid or some thing silly.

pss some one with time and who has one of these could easly take what they want and break it to get there money back.


psss sorted the indicators,was a loose relay as i suspected but now the abs light comes on and off,i have no idea what it is but im guessing again a loose relay or wire some where.

Looks to me like you want to have your cake and eat it; you either find the time/money to sort the MOT or you let the car go for best offer, and the way the price of scrap has plummeted recently, a car with no MOT is worth about seventy to a hundred quid.

Regards, C.A.
