Default 95 White 850 SE Estate for Sale - 104,000 miles 2.5 10v auto

Dear Friends, here is my own car for sale!

1995 M reg Auto Estate in white with blue cloth interior.

Price: 495 pounds or offers??

Car is low mileage at 104,000 and has the desirable 2.5 10v engine. We have owned this car since 2006 and the previous dedicated owner had the car 11 years from new. We are Volvo Owners Club members and we are situated in York viewing is welcome.

Good points:

M.O.T until May 2009 and Tax until 31/10/08
The a/c actually works, doesn't cycle on/off and provides chilled air into the cabin.
Roof Rails (and I have the load bars which I'll include)
Carpet mats which are genuine Volvo
Heated seats
Middle drop down childs seat
4 electric windows and mirrors
Volvo Stereo with code
Timing Belt was done at 70,000 miles
Autobox is smooth and the fluid is clear.
Very good history, service is stamped to 90,000 and I have all the MOT certificates.
Vast load area
Drives like a much younger car
The rear lights are not faded as this car was garaged
You don't need expensive diagnostics to read the codes it does it for you!

Bad Points:

The rear main seal IS leaking. I have not tried sealant or anything to pour into the motor, neither have I changed the engine oil seperator which may allow the seal to heal or reduce! On a run of 100 mile I can use 1/2 a litre and sometimes it doesn't use any as I think it depends on crank pressure forcing the oil out of the seal.

The rear passenger door on the drivers side is dented (please see photo in attachments).

Bearing these points in mind, local trade have offered what I am asking on this site it is MOT'ed and taxed until the end of October, so I am hoping the car goes to an enthusiast and if not I will sell it to the local guys.

Thanks for reading.
Matt
