Ph1 V70 TDi/T5 Auto wanted.

[CPH]

On the lookout for a decent phase 1 V70 TDi or T5 auto. Sold mine a couple of years ago and have regretted it ever since. There's just something about these cars that I really miss.

Would prefer the TDi flavour but will consider a T5 if the oil burners are in short supply. Obviously a V70R would be doable if the price was right but I reckon they'd probably be out of my budget and any in my budget would probably show it.

Thanks in advance,

Chris

A decent V70 TDI can be almost as expensive as a T5 They can sell for anything up to £1500

Thanks. I’ve been looking for a while so am aware of current values.

There’s a couple of nice V70s about 20 miles from me but both are manual, one is a TDi, the other a 2.5T AWD.

There’s another TDi down south but it’s a bit of a project and has no MoT so getting it home would be expensive before I’ve even started replacing parts.

Ive just sold a 1997 V70 TDI CD model and was amazed at how many people was interested!

[CPH]

It doesn’t surprise me. When I sold mine I had a lot of interest and promises to pay over the asking price.

I’ve seen a few nice S70 T5s too. These seem to be in slightly better condition with lower miles than the V70 but I reckon I’d miss having the versatility of an estate. To be fair the Ph1 V70 is still a handsome looking car too.

Just seen what looks like a real beauty on ebay now for £1500 Its a dealer so probably wont haggle too much. Must be worth a look!
