Description

Extremely rare 1997 Volvo V70r manual for sale. £££££ spent.

Fully serviced by myself.

3 x Keys.

I've owned this car for over 5 years and it has wanted for nothing. The car is immaculate for its age. I have a folder full of receipts with modification, and maintenance items. The car is in perfect running order, and I have used it daily as my first car. In my ownership I've spent over 10k on parts, modifications and maintenance including an engine rebuild with forged parts.

I myself have given the car a full service every single year with oem parts and miller's 10w60 performance oil. Car was only doing 4k miles between services roughly.

I've just supercleaned every piece of the interior, including wet vacuuming which took me around 6hours

Please contact me for more info I'm sure I've missed some information. I will happily take out any buyers for a drive, but will not hand over the keys until money is in my bank. No px wanted as I want the money for a new car. A true sleeper of a car. The car is extremely fast (around 370bhp), but is also extremely reliable due to the huge amount of maintenance I have put into the car, and the quality of parts used. The car is very cheap to insure, and is a real head turner, yet fantastically practical.
