For sale
1995 VOLVO 850 ESTATE 2500cc
124k miles
Automatic Transmission

Hi guys,
"Moby" (because she is big and blue) has stayed with us for the last 8 years but now it is time for her to go. I will be happy is somebody can take care of it. The car has only 124.000 miles and the engine sounds really good.
During that time I've done brakes, exhaust and alternator. The three erar windows are tinted.The battery is less than a year old. Seats are in a really good condition.
The MOT expires on the 14th of June.
Issues are:
-ABS electronic module light is on. All the sensors has been tested and are all right. Last MOT I open and solder the ABS module. The light stop appearing, but it is back again intermittently.
-Wipers need to be changed.
-The body has some scratches and the lacquer is falling in some patches (see picture)
I am adding to the deal a right mirror (see picture)
Given the state of the car I want £300, but offers are welcome.
The car is based at Crystal Palace, London.

Are you in Lunham Road? Think I walked passed Moby last week, always have a sneaky look at nice old 850s! Are you putting a new MOT on or selling as it is?

Thanks,

Julian

Yes that's must be Moby! I was planning to sell it as it is. Let me know if you want to take a closer look.

The number plate alone is probably worth that to a Chelsea fan

Nooooo, it is big like a Big Blue Whale. Although it is true we took the name from Melville's novel...to be honest right now I can't think about any other "whale name"....Willy?

Monstro......the whale from Disney's pinnochio, hes big & blue, but bloody grumpy & has a predisposition nfor eating small Boys. Probably not a winner on the car naming front
