My beloved Volvo 850 TDI Estate 1996 (R regd) in Red

138,000 miles (genuine with all MOT's to prove.) manual 5 speed gearbox, Original Volvo Radio /casette player Full grey leather trim, central locking / alarm with 2 keys / keyfobs, electric mirrors, factory fitted electric glass sliding sunroof ( tilt and slide), air con, heated seats, Height adjustable seats, adjustable steering column, PAS, Cruise control, traction control, Load cover, Fog lamps, high level brake lamp, Tow Bar with twin electrics and integral sliding cover, 10 months MOT, full service history. 2 owners from new.( Me for past 10 years) Good Tyres, alloy wheels ( inc spare) Spare rear number plate for towing. No Rust or rot whatsoever anywhere. Full documentation.
Best car I've ever owned

Reason I have advertised as spares or repair is...
Fault in engine management causes regular loss of power , and occasional cutting out of engine. (Possibly caused by loose or corroded connector somewhere). Can't seem to sort it, and it's been getting worse and worse... so I've given up and bought a V70..

Other bits and pieces..:-
drivers heated seat not working, Drivers door stop strap broken, leak on air con ( pipe corroded in engine compartment. compressor appears OK). SRS light on dash permanently on ( and has been since I got the car). Rear hatch inner trim loose, and some breaks and cracks in luggage compartment plastic trim. Only top half of heated rear screen works.
Smoked in up until 3 years ago when I gave up.. Carried lots of dogs and other animals, so would need a really good clean...!!!

It's declared SORN as of Today 1st June.. and if it hasn't gone to a good home soon, it'll have to go for scrap..:-(

I was thinking around the 500 quid mark would be fair....
