240 Turbo
|
galaxies
I have sold my 240 turbo but the guy doesn't want the galaxies so they are for sale plus one spare.
I got them in Feb 06, they had been used by a Volvo dealership to fit on their showroom cars back when they were still selling nines, the guy I got them off had worked there and bought them when the dealership closed down some years before. When I got them they had never been used on the road. I have been very careful to look after them, they have never been near a kerb but have a few minor scratches from road chips and a bit of powder coating rubbed off from me cleaning them but they are still really good examples, I have covered approximately 15000 miles on these wheels (I dont think you will find better without a refurb) The tyres are Dunlop SP2000 225/50/16, I got these tyres in Jan 08, a superb tyre that I keep going back to, I have never had any punctures with these (or any) of my SP2000 tyres. I went for the extra width to improve cornering. I did have to stamp on the brakes a while back which have scarred the surface of the fronts a little but you wouldn't know it unless you got down and looked closely, no flat spots. All tyres have around 5mm of tread left. (I'll have to double check that, the car is parked at my mates house) so you should get at least another year out of them. These tyres cost me £90 each (fitted) The spare is another genuine Volvo Galaxy, not as smart as the other four, some blistering of the powder coating but makes a good full size spare for long distance trips, the tyre is a dunlop sp2020 sport maxx in 205/55/16 so its the same rolling radius as the main ones (give or take a millimeter) tread in good condition. £600 ONO When I got them Now

I have a set of Gallaxies to be for sale soon (well, I've 95% decided to sell them). So there'll probably be another chance for anyone who missed Suterman's!
(Did anybody we know on here buy the 240 turbo?) John |

I collected the Galaxies from Suterman today. They are just as described, although the tyres have much less tread depth than than Suterman had remembered. He generously reduced the asking price to £500 which I accepted.
Now they are on the car, I prefer the Aurigas that were previously fitted so I think I will re-offer the Galaxies for the £500 cash that I paid. I am going to have my Aurigas re-furbished so the Galaxies will be available in a few weeks, cleaned prior to collection.
