Possible sell

lightyears · Oct 15th, 2015, 14:42

Putting out some feelers to see if anyone would be interested in my 850 T5, its a early 1994, with reverse intercooler set up, the MOT is up on November 5th this year, i am a bit unwilling to retest it as i now have company car and its just sitting there.

Main details

204K on clock, engine has approx half of this as it was changed at 70K
MOT 5th november this year, will need 2 new tyres, offside driveshaft boot or shaft, have both included, anti roll bars and possibly new pads on the fronts.
Car drives well, pulls like a rocket but is starting to feel its age. interior is mostly ok, but my dogs travel with me so it getting on a bit. Underneath is solid.

Im looking for £500 take it as it is. really don't want to break it as the forum has previous history with her. Will get some photo's up asap.

Fully legal to drive home, will need taxing under new rules.

Photo's, has not been cleaned up or hovered out yet, but will be shortly, i have one term on this sale and that it is sold whole, not broken up and the person who possibly buys must understand where I'm coming from.

I am quite interested to know what the additional under the bonnet items are?

the one connected to the airbox?

the other one may be factory but it is piping that runs around the plugs & terminates near the dizzy cap?

the one connected to the airbox is the boost solenoid as everything is back to front , the pipe round the spark plug is a older system that is somehow connected to the pcv system, in later models it was deleted, and i have also bypassed it as it gets blocked up badly and is a pain in the arse to clean.

Any reason your not getting back to me?

^ ewanc0 he's not logged in for two days so probably hasn't seen your message mate.

Where did that turbo badge come from on the tailgate? It looks Volvo but don't think Ive ever seen one?

He's been on twice since I posted, he also has 2 pm's from me. Shame as I really thought I was getting the old girl back, but he's obviously had a better offer. Would be nice to know though. I got the turbo badge from a member here who's name escapes me. Don't think it's an 850 badge but it seemed to fit as the 94 model was called an 850 turbo. It was 95 before it was known as a T5
