Hi all,

Hereby I will put my XC90 D5 185 Executive tentative for sale, it appears I spend most of my time in Europe and spending hardly any time in the UK. As such I am considering finally buying a LHD XC90 so here goes:

- First date of registration 15-05-2010
- D5 185 Executive
- Currently 162000 miles and hardly going up (I have a Toyota Prius for short distances as well as an Audi E-Tron 50 too)
- Full Volvo Main Dealer history (7 stamps) until 07.07.15 at 71115 mls (always with Johnson's Gloucester) and from 86120mls and 30.04.2016 the car has been serviced with BMC Volvo in Cheltenham (7 stamps), both by the previous owner as well as myself (last service was on 16.11.2022 at 156403 mls. I decided to bring the car to the same specialist since they know the car.
- Purchased the car on 24.09.2022 with license plate TR10CJW and from the 29.09.2022 the plate changed to Y888KUT.
- MOT until 15.11.2023 with no advisories, performed on 02.11.2022 at 154895 mls and diesel emission test passed at only 0.08 grams which seems to be really low.
- 19" Galateiea wheels in great shape with Michelin Lattitude Sport 3 summer tyres with plenty of thread
- Ember Black (Inscription colour) on black interior with Executive piping.

Pre purchase inspection report dating from 09.2022 available.

Since my purchase the following has been done:
- On call deactivated (only message in the instrument cluster)
- Castrol Edge 5W-30 oil
- Annual service
- Motor fan replaced
- Rear N/S brake replaced
- Steering angle sensor replaced (I had the "anti skid message)
- Complete wiring tow bar replaced (for use with bicycle carrier)

Car has only been used for long distance driving between the UK, the Netherlands and Germany and comes with 2 keys, V5C, invoices (invoices from previous owner who swapped the car for a Tesla, are not available yet can be checked with the previous garages.
In winter I drove with a 17" set of wheels.

Following options came as extra:
Nivomat
Tinted glass
Remote child lock
Tempa spare wheel (removed as I drove with a full 17" alloy in the back and wheel was completely rusted)
Rear AC
Passenger airbag cut/off.

Now the bits that will need attention in the future (next service ?):
- Front right lower suspension arm bush slight wear
- Front brake discs inner faces corroded (used to squeak upon purchase, not any more)
- Condenser fins corroded causing slight loss of efficiency
- Occasional heavy steering (2%-4% of the time at stationary speeds) most likely caused by PAS pump
- Front massage function appears faulty
- There is a small stone chip on the bonnet and some light scratches, most likely caused by shrubs/branches due to driving on rural country roads

During my stewardship I have spent about GBP 500 and EUR 1000 to get the car in a great condition and I have tried to describe the car to the best of my abilities.

Asking price is GBP 5200 (for which the car will be delivered anywhere in England, provided I get a ride to the nearest airport) and if in doubt how I sell my cars I can bring you in contact with the chap who bought my last XC90 through this forum :-)

Pictures ofcourse on request, not in any hurry to sell so will not be entertaining silly offers, hence putting the car for sale on here and not in the Facebook XC90 group for now !

Cheers,
Alain
