Volvo V70R Manual 1997 £3500
So I'm finally selling my beloved Volvo V70R. I have owned this car on and off for around 9 years now (I actually sold it once and bought it back again), most of the regulars on here will know my car as its been around in the club scene for a long time, there is a comprehensive build thread on here if you want to go have a look at some of the work I have done to it over the years.
The car has cover just over 256k miles and it is still in daily use getting me to work and back, it was once a show car but sadly being used as a daily driver and jealous neighbor's have taken their tole on it. The car had a low mileage (65k) engine fitted last year from an S60 though it is still pre Me7, the gearbox was also replaced for a good used one (M58) as the original had started to have problems. the full clutch was also replaced while the engine was out. The full spec of the car is:- New Cat New Stainless cat back twin exit exhaust K&N Cone filter New Volvo MAF HLM Remap Silicone hoses Reverse intercooler pipework Aluminium radiator Fully rebuilt 18T Turbo Volvo Strut brace New Battery Boost gauge ABM Rear lights Crystal headlights and indicators with new headlight lenses Egg crate grill Headlight wiper blanks new front fog lights Front splitter (not currently fitted) Rear diffuser bumper Tinted windows Eibach springs (lowered 2") Bilstein rear shocks new Drop links Pioneer head unit 18" Odysseus alloys painted in Anthracite Recently Passed its MOT with no advisories, genuine manual R's are becoming very rare. This is a good solid car that needs very little doing to it, the body is not immaculate ( there is lacquer peel on the roof, the front edge of the o/s rear wheel arch needs painting and there are some small dents (hence the jealous neighbor's) but it wouldn't take much to make it into the show car it used to be. Car is priced at £3,500 no offers. |

Out of curiosity, what was the problem with the original engine?? Whilst 256k is par for the course, they can go nearer 400k with ease.

The original engine was badly worn, I started to pull the head but a head bolt snapped way down in the block and in the process of trying to remove it I managed to then snap an extractor in the end of it, I gave up at that point and bought a replacement engine.
