Default C70 T5 GT with lots of goodies!

This is my C70 T5 GT which is my pride and joy and has been cared for extremely well by both myself and it's previous owners. It's been maintained regardless of cost and has a full service history. The bodywork and interior is in excellent condition and I often get comments on the good looks. In fact, I was recently PM'd by a fellow VOC member who had seen the car at Thorney Island, taken some pictures and wanted to use them in a compilation of the best examples of Volvo marques! Was very flattered! Being the GT spec it is fully loaded from the factory so it's super comfy to drive with performance that keeps most cars honest!

Since owning the car I have carried out a few subtle upgrades that really enhance it. The list of upgrades is as follows:

*RICA 310bhp remap
*BSR Optiflow intake
*Volvo front upper strut brace
*Weitec -30mm suspension
*Jetex cat-back exhaust with OEM tailpipe
*18" Pegasus alloys with Avon ZZ3's all round
*6000K HID kit
*Powerflex upper engine mount

This car is taxed until the end of Dec and has MOT until July 2011. I'm confident that this is one of the best examples on offer! When I was looking for it, there were many others in poor condition, or with very high mileage. I don't think pictures do the car the justice it deserves so feel free to come and view! Just call or email me anytime. I can be available most evenings and weekends for viewings, and would even be willing to travel to meet you - within reason of course!

If there is anything I've missed or you have any questions, don't hesitate to get in touch.

The car is in daily use so mileage is subject to change.

Price is £3150 or SENSIBLE offers.

Thanks Mike, I'm afraid I'd rather not break it as I have the car advertised in several other places and the BSR is advertised with it.

FYI Tony, as you have so eagerly picked out all the faults in my ad (I knew you wouldn't let me down!!) yes the OSF fog light is broken, yes the pegs are good quality copies and the mileage is currently 95500. So you're interested in buying the car then??

Okay, but if it doesn't sell for what ever reason, then if you do want to sell bits let me know.

Seeing as I'm not after a "mint" C70 then yes I am still interested in your C70.What else have you failed to mention as I am not prepared to travel and distance for yet another over exaggerated seller.

I've not described as mint! Apart from the fog light and usual stone chips to the bumper there's not a mark on it!

Chill Tubby where did I say you said it was mint? I was referring to general sellers who over exaggerate the actual condition of there car.What bracket would you describe the car being in out of 10?, 10 being the highest.
