Default Got myself a V70 2.5T SE

Time to venture into the realms of the V70...

Having owned my P2 Volvo XC90 for over 5 years and my P80 850 for almost 3 years, I decided it was time to get another P2 but this time in the guise of a V70. I took a flight from Glasgow to Heathrow then was collected by the dealer and driven to Slough to view a willow green V70 2.5T SE. After a thorough look round and a test drive and a lot of haggling I drove 420 miles home where the mileometer turned over to 64,007.

First stop was at Forton Services and a quick picture in the dark...


Next morning before breakfast I had to take a look out the window at what I had purchased


Still space for another one


Having been laid up in a garage for 10 years the underside doesn't seem to have any nasty bits I need to worry about


I'll clean it and give it a blast with the Lanoguard once the weather is a bit warmer


Thursday was spent polishing the paintwork to remove a few marks
