good luck with the sale, bit of info, i had the engine light on mine too, however once the brake ecu was done it went out, the two might be connected.

Default new sale price

since advertising at a cheap price prior to any work being done, and attracting no interest at the cheap price.

i have since done most the work for the mot and all what needs doing for mot is front wishbone bushes.

since my arm is broken, i have booked the car in for mot and instructed them to change the bushes for me.

after putting on a full mot, the price is going to be £1350 ovno. this is still cheap for a v70 t5 cd top spec.

the other little jobs need doing to "put it right" are;

rear nearside elctric window fix (suspect switch)

drivers door check strap (supplied, not yet fitted)
turbo oil return pipe o ring and gasket (supplied, not yet fitted)

if i have time and my arm is upto it, i will fit the drivers door check strap
also the turbo oil return pipe gasket and o ring.

engine is fine, not showing any signs of smoke, or rattles, and i am confident enough to say this car will do many more miles providing oil/belts/coolant/filters etc are changed at the recommended intervals.

thanks to those who have shown interest.
