Default 720k miles Volvo S80 - Now with Alex Kersten!

Hi everyone!
Alex Kersten from Autoalex Cars *has uploaded the video of his High Mileage Volvo S80, kindly named John after my late brother in law.
Me and John’s family are very touched as, just like the Volvo, John kept fighting and I’m sure he is smiling up there.
Watch his plans for John and I’m sure we are all looking forward to see the next chapter of this high mileage hero.
So happy that car is in good hands.

Watched the video and looks extremely clean considering, although it has had a small fortune spent on it over the years. Glads it’s going to be cleaned up and sorted.

I saw the video yesterday and then got jealous that the engine is a lot cleaner than mine despite having nearly twice the miles (on the engine).

Thanks, it took me a long time to get it nice and clean… but then that oil leak kept coming!
