2005 S60 2/4 D5 Sport Auto
Hi Everyone,
Sadly the time has come for my S60 to move on. I bought it to help a friend out who was leaving the country not long ago, but with 3 other cars already and a new baby at the end of next month I need to get it shifted. Not being able to get the isofix bars for it was the final nail in the coffin... The car itself: It starts first time, runs brilliantly still returning good MPG. Great condition for a nearly-20 year old car. A few stone chips and the odd scratch (will add to the pictures), but very very honest otherwise.
What I've done to it.... Most of it is covered here, I think: https://www.volvoforums.org.uk/showthread.php?t=336796 I've spent a lot on the car and have always used good quality parts, INA, Gates, Volvo etc, no cheap rubbish. Just in case I missed something in the post above, here's the list:
Servicing: 7 01/04/2005 Volvo Cars UK, Didcot 13,652 24/08/2005 Squire Furneaux Gordon Road High Wycombe 25,529 04/09/2006 Barnetts Volvo, riverside drive 37,653 23/03/2007 Volvo Park Ayrs Healthfield road 48,013 18/09/2007 Volvo Park Ayrs Healthfield road 60,221 02/05/2008 Volvo Park Ayrs Healthfield road 72,683 28/11/2008 Volvo Park Ayrs Healthfield road 86,092 15/03/2010 Dundalk motors, Brockley 94,462 08/10/2011 Dundalk motors, Brockley 105,162 05/10/2013 Gerrards motors ltd, Ruislip 113,823 25/10/2014 Gerrards motors ltd, Ruislip 125,773 24/04/2017 Swift Motor Co Ltd, Ruislip 137,661 28/07/2020 Halfords Autocentre, Ruislip Don't forget this was covid time, hence no servicing! 147,868 13/06/2023 West 4 Autos Ltd, Chiswick 156,215 16/01/2024 Me The bad: I'm being overly honest here, more honest than you'd get in the average advert...[LIST][*]The gearbox needs another flush and the B4 servo cap fitting. 2nd to 3rd has just started bumping when the gearbox is warm. No rev flaring. Otherwise "buttery" changes. I'm sorting the gearbox fluid level out at the moment as it's low, so it might sort itself out.[*]Fuel cap strap has just broken[*]The standard "Alarm service error"[*] The fan blower squeaks sometimes[*]The drivers side window buttons are cracked[*]The chrome is peeling off the steering wheel logo[*]I haven't and don't know when the brake fluid or coolant were last changed. The brake fluid comes back as fine on my tester. I don't know what it's worth but I've spent a lot more on this car than I bought it for. I'd need about £2000 to recover my costs, but don't know what they're worth. I'll come back and add some more photos. Please give me some feedback and pricing!
