Si_s Supe Posted May 15, 2011 Share Posted May 15, 2011 Evening all! It is with some sadness I'm offering my manual S70R for sale, though the reason being is I have just bought my dream car (TT6 Facelift!), so kind of sweetens it a bit! Still, I shall be sad to see her go. It's a 1998 car with 110k miles and a full service history. I don't think I've seen another in black and it always gets comments on just how nice it looks. I've recently detailed it. You can see the results of that here. http://www.volvoforums.org.uk/showthread.php?t=120424 The condition of it is great, there are the odd few marks around it as you'd expect with a 13yr old car, but overall she's great! The interior is again in fantastic condition the exception of the steering wheel which is quite worn. This is the only aspect that lets the interior down. Although the car has 110k on the clock, the engine was replaced for a brand new Volvo one at 66k due to road debris penetrating the sump and starving the engine of oil. It drives fantastically as you'd expect and with a few choice mods it goes well too. It has a K&N shielded intake, an MBC running at 1.1 bar and producing 285bhp with a graph, Powerflex top engine mount, Forge blanking plate, 18" genuine Pegasus wheels in anthracite (one is very lightly scuffed) and genuine egg box grill and C70 crystal / jewel headlights. I had the matching indicators but one was broken so the car is fitted with jewel headlights and standard indicators. I actually really like it like that on a black car as you don't have the orange reflectors. If it's not to your taste, Rufe at FRF can supply a new one for £52.54. I still have the other unbroken one. Taxed till the end of June and MOT expires at the beginning of June but I will put a new 12 month ticket on it for the new owner. Onto some photos. Apologies I haven't taken any of the front end with the jewel headlights, but I will endeavor to get them up ASAP. I'm looking for reasonable offers around £3000. I highly encourage any viewing as the photos don't really do it any justice. I hope I've not forgotten too much, but if there is anything you'd like to know, don't hesitate to get in touch either through the forum or my number is 07824632799.

Thorin Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 I'm a bit of a fan of performance volvo's, and that does look a very nice example. If this had have been a V70R (need an estate), I think I'd have snapped your hand off at that price. Good luck with sale Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

j_jza80 Posted May 27, 2011 Share Posted May 27, 2011 What a fantastic car TBH I dont think you're asking enough for it. As Thorin said, if it had been an estate I would have snapped your hand off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Si_s Supe Posted May 27, 2011 Author Share Posted May 27, 2011 WOW! Don't think I've ever advertised a car and been told to up the price! lol. Thanks for the nice comments, but to be fair these cars are cheap and I'm asking a reasonable price. They've not held their price like our Supras have!!
