Default 1995 Volvo 850 2.5 SE Saloon with Manual Gearbox

1995 ‘M’ Volvo 850 SE 2.5 Saloon

MOT until 30th March 2023
Manual gearbox
73,555 miles
16 inch ‘Columba’ alloy wheels
Optional boot spoiler

Everything works on the car including both front heated seats, the electric tilt / slide sunroof, the electric aerial and even the cassette player (original Volvo SC-801 ‘Premium Sound’ system). The headlamp wipers also work correctly and look fabulously retro.

The interior is pretty much free from wear or damage and this includes the headliner and dash plastics. It is a lovely place to spend time and the velour SE spec heated seats are very comfortable.

Work done in the last few months:

- All 4 wheels professionally refurbished in standard silver
- New tyres in the correct 205/50R16 size
- New number plates
- Lower gearbox mount
- Top engine mount
- Wiper blades
- Wheel bolts
- Thermostat and temperature sensor
- Full service

I bought the car to keep for a long time, but an opportunity has come up for me to start my own business therefore I need to sell the Volvo to help fund this.

As you can see on the pictures, this is a fantastic looking car both inside and out and drives as well as it looks. The exhaust note is fabulous as it the manual gearbox, allowing you to enjoy it even more!

Rust wise, the NSF is just starting to bubble but has been treated with clear POR15. As you can see on the pictures, this isn’t really noticeable. The red pearl metallic paint looks excellent, but there are a few marks and scratches as you would expect of a 27 year old car.

The car comes complete with two original keys and remotes (work perfectly), the book pack, Volvo rubber mats, a Haynes manual as well as an original 1995 Volvo 850 sales brochure. There are also various receipts for work carried out on the car.

Let me know if you have any questions, the car is located in York.
