There are other T5's that appear but mileage tends to be a lot higher sadly.

It is frustrating seeing very high mile cars for sale at ridiculous prices though. |

Cant but wonder, is that mileage really that low? Any way to verify that with previous MOTs etc, just in case you are going forward with buing plans? Not saying its impossible but 69k for 2007 car, wowza. My 2005 recently hit 200k...
sidenote - listed as 2007 but its clearly fl model, thought those were 2008+ only as of registration date?

yeh you can check as it will be on the MOT. Probably hasnt been used that much and these examples do crop up recently but more rarely. Most that crop up will easily be over 100k by now.

Previous owner had done a few more and apparently worked at Bilstein and took good care of it. Doesn't sound like it's had a hard life and ultimately will continue that way with me, as I only do about 6000 miles each year. I did wonder the same about the year and it being a FL. I'm not savvy with all the differences so was not too sure. I wondered if it had a mix of FL and PFL bits as it's on the changeover point. Think it was registered October 2007. That would make both Volvos I own changeover year cars! Parts shopping will be fun |

changeover year - I wouldnt think so. Seen few of them and from outside those look pre-FL and inside bits are FL, here you have FL lights front/back, bumpers (even exhaust tips are FL one) and also whole inside FL aswell (mid tunell etc). In theory it IS possible to swap all that from FL car but to that degree here, it would require so much hassle, im doubtful. Maybe car is actually 2008 and owner just put wrong figure? nice example regardless, im just nitpicking
