Bought another oddball, Devon, PA 19333 - SOLD

Post by JRL »

2005 V70 NA 5 speed manual!
A low (for the year) mileage wagon, 83,200 miles
This is NOT a base car, she has a moonroof, leather, power seats, climate, etc with a very high condition report (4.6 out of 5!) In Barents Blue with Oak leather.

If it passes post sale inspection and I get it back here, after I go over it, it will be in the classifieds
I had a lot of interest a couple of weeks ago when I thought I was going to buy an 04 manual but it was too expensive and had more miles.
This one, while a hair high, sold within reason.

If anyone may have interest before it goes into Autotrader, please contact me.
Depending on what it needs mechanically, figure between $10K and $11K as a sale price, possibly less.

Sorry about the poor pics, they're all I have right now.

Checked it out tonight
Doesn't needs much (for once)!!!
Upper torque mount
1 coil (failed on the way home). Actually two did, I installed my spare coil (new) and I need to buy one more, Monday.
Front pads and rotors, that seems to be about it, a really well serviced wagon

Just checked everywhere, only three (3) of these for sale in the entire country.
The other two are 2004s, are approx $1500 or so less, one has 104K miles, the other 145K miles!
This has 80K, a year newer and much, much nicer.

No contest, mine is the deal of the century compared to those two

But your initial post is vague on price (understandably) and I don't see another number anywhere in the thread: how much do you want for this beauty?

'98 V70, T5 tune-injectors-turbo, LPT engine, 304k, daily driver
'06 S60 R, 197k
'07 XC70, black, 205k
'07 XC70, willow green, 212k
'99 Camry V6 :shock: 153k
gone: '96 NA 850 210k, '98 NA V70 182k, '98 S70 NA 225k, '96 855 NA 169k
