850 T-5R Estate, Manual - Gull / Cream Yellow
 

I’ve come to the very difficult decision, that it’s time to sell my cherished Gull/Cream Yellow, Factory Manual, 850 T-5R estate with 152,900 miles.

It was the ‘Volvo Driver’ magazine cover car in December 2018 and is known within the Volvo Owners Club having featured in the club magazine a few times over the years. It has only 2 previous owners, I’ve owned it since September 2014. Comes with a massive history, all the way back to the purchase paperwork.

Opportunities like this very rarely come alone!

Forums aren’t great for posting pictures, so if anyone is interested, ping me a message with your email address & I’ll send you more details & pictures.

Very nice example of a Gul Yellow T5-R. I hope you find a good home for it.

Thanks for the comment, appreciated. Yes, no doubt seen it around the West of Scotland!

Chatting to a couple of folk, so all good thanks

Great thanks. Obviously you have much superior IT skills than I have, lol

Hi - Just wondering if this is still available please?

Hi all,

After almost 9yrs of ownership, I 'kinda' tried selling my Gul / Estate / Full Uk / factory Manual T-5R / 152k mls last year. I didnt try hard (a big decision to sell, lol) but having thought more about it over the last few months while its been in its usual winter storage, i'm going to try more enthusistically to sell it this spring / summer. Just mentioning it here before I potentially use Pistonheads & Classic Cars etc

This car had an extensive refresh back in 2015/2016 and has covered less than 500mls since, its only used on dry days and is stored permanently in a heated/dehumidified garage. There are not many like this out there. The MOT has expired over the winter storage months but this will be renewed soon.

No, its not concourse/show car, but its a stunning car with £1000's worth of receipts & photographic evidence of the refresh.

How much an I looking for.......well, prices are all over just now, I've seen some at upto £26k.........others, with work required around £10-12k.

Given the extensive service history (back to the original Volvo order!), every MOT, only 2 previous owners & £1000's spent, its up there with the best, but I'd rather have a no nonsence sale instead of the hassle experienced social media etc (I'm too old for that carry-on!), so I'm looking for circa £21k but always open to fair & reasonable offers.

I have an extensive write-up already written, call or drop me a message/WhatApp on 0771 555 6820 if you are interested and I'll send it / email it across with loads more photos.

Thanks, Gerry

Best of luck again finding her a new home. She looks absolutely fantastic in Gul-yellow. If I'd had the means, I would, to have alongside my V70R. Am sure somebody will.

Thank you.

Being priced at the upper end of the market it will only appeal to a few but the right person will come along in due course.

Thanks again
