Volvo V70 T5 Manual

100K+ · Mar 7th, 2015, 09:34

Its time to put my 2002 V70 T5 with 240K to sleep. She'll 99% fail her MOT at the end of March, ( 27th) and has a list of repairs which, depending upon which ones you did, would give you little change from £2k.
I have not the space nor knowledge of how to scrap it.
However, as it still drives I wondered if it would be of any interest to someone one here.

The repair list :-

Rear exhaust box
DIM - mainbeam warning light intermitant.
Timing belt due now.
MAF sensor - needs cleaning every 3/4months.
Original clutch - bite point getting higher but never slipped. ( actually a lot lower than a V50 my daughter just bought)
O/S front drive shaft knocks for a few days then goes silent.
Air Con was re charged last year but lost charge after about a week.
Drivers heated seat don't heat.
CD Player don't play CD's - radio works fine

The front discs are relatively new, as is the alternator.
17" Tyres have some tread (4mm fronts 6mm rear) but are budget brands.
Interior is abit grubby, but there are no rips/tears

I have owned the car since 2003 and £15K and it has NEVER let me down.
I'm going to be very sad to see her go.

The rear seat base (cream) is from my AWD R and has a fitted booster cushion so I can carry my grandson in either car. It will be swapped back at time of sale.

Price £ 350 currently not for sale anywhere else.
