A learning experience is one of those things that says, "You know that thing you just did? Don't do that."

Just checked the vin it shows it's a 98 5 speed with a b5254t4 so!!!! Don't think it's an R but you have to watch out for that stuff! Here's the link of the decode site with your vin supplied!STREETFIGHTER50 wrote:Here's the VIN# Can you tell if it's an "R"?

That VIN decoder is wrong. See the other posts - it's an R.

Seriously, why do some of you do this?
PLEASE put your decoder ring back in its box. I don't know what you got there but it's no good
A T5 has a 53 engine code
A 52 is a 98 V70R

Man, the best place to decode a vin is on the official Volvo site. Also, the autocheck said it was an R as well.

Well I got off work early today & checked it out. I think I'm gonna have to pass. I really want something cleaner. Front bumper is cracked, a lot of oxidation/fading (especially on the rear bumper), chipped paint off the door moldings, interior is pretty dirty as well. The steering wheel is very worn looking. Check engine light wasn't on, but the ABS light was. Maybe the battery was dead/disconnected since the car has been sitting for sometime on a driveway under a tree. Tires had really low air pressure & the tags expired last October if I remember right. Maybe if he would've washed it before we met up I would've seen more. Has low miles & pulls pretty good, but the timing belt & rest of the due maintenance has to be done. I'm tempted to give a low offer, but I think I'll end up spending a lot more money on it... For now I'll just be patient & wait for that right one... I'm looking for any color exterior with a black or gray interior V70 T5. Also, any V70s with 5 speeds are a definite plus-don't need the turbo if it's a manual! Must be fairly clean overall. Anybody have any leads LMK!
