Default Breaking 99 V70R AWD in Silver.

I picked this up last night, it's a silver 99 V70R AWD, engine has a massive oil leak somewhere near the belt side of the engine, a 5 minute drive home and it lost the complete contents of the sump.





Strut brace has sold already, most other bits still available..

Hello,
Well that sucks, did you buy it as a breaker or were you hoping to put it on the road?

RollingThunder is after the wood interior and steering wheel if it has it.
Looks to be the beige interior, is it the usual aluminium trim however?

Cheers

Hi, I was offered it buy a guy who lives localy, I have a V70R at the moment so I wasn't really fussed if it was saveable or not tbh. Interior has the aluminium trim and the dark leather/alacantra. Steering wheel is the all leather one.

Is the turbo serviceable and available? if so could you let me know the model (16T or 18T) and flange type and your price as actively looking for one now. Thanks Stephen..

Seats and silver trim provisionaly sold, wheels may be sold dependant on the buyer.

There will be a turbo for sale but I'm not sure when at the moment, my current car has a smoking issue so I want to try the turbo off this on my car to see if it's the recently rebuilt turbo that's at fault. Once I know the turbo will be up for sale, there is some movement in the shaft but it was boosting ok and there was no smoke.

That was actually my intention but as it puked it's guts out all over the road outside when I got it home I didn't really have the money or time to find, repair and then re sell this car. Also a lot of the parts off this car went on to repair my 2wd V70R so it wasn't a complete waste, I'm all for not breaking them if at all possible.
