V70-R Bright Red Near Mint NYC $5000 SOld!

Post by KEWROCK »

Hi guys.
I'm finally selling my Volvo. I'm posting it here before Craigslist.
1999 V70-R Wagon. T5 Turbo-AWD 125,000 miles w/CarFax.
This was obviously never a kid's car. No signs of abuse, mods or racing.

Bright red, near mint, no rust or dents. 2 small 1/4 inch parking dings that were on it when I got it. Rear bumper has no shape damage, but paint is peeling (needs sanding and paint).
Interior is spotless. No rips, buckskin suede R seats (Minor surface cracking) everything works. dash is mint as is the console. Carpets are clean. 3 original mats-clean, missing driver's mat.

Optional moon roof and roof rack including cross bars. I have the original plastic roof seam covers if someone wants to remove the front to back rails to make it a sportier flat roof. The standard moon roof leak everybody had has been fixed as per tutorial on this forum. Perfect undetectable repair.

Car has less than 10k on front struts (Either Bosch or Sachs, whichever are OEM. I forget now), Strut bearings, tires and alignment.
No codes pop. Has new O2 sensor and some other sensors while shop was trying to sort out CEL issue. Purge valve was the problem, that is new also.
The my ownership and car's repair history is posted in Matt's forums over the years.

I'm asking $5000 firm. The car is in Queens, NY. If I could afford the insurance on 3 cars, I would just keep it. But my attention has shifted to an old Jeep as my second car. The Volvo has been in my garage for 2 years now with no plates. Started and rotated every few months........

If anybody's interested, this is a really nice example of a pretty rare car(in the best color it came in).
Rocco.
EDIT: It's an Automatic, and The whole car runs great.

Nice, I think
Please resize your pictures a bit, WAY too large and please post some interior shots

I didn't see a reply to JRL's post. Do you still have the car? Can you arrange to get it out of NY and closer to Chicago or Indianapolis?

You can PM me if you prefer.

Thanks! Sim Lyons

Yes, it's still in my garage. I posted it for a few days on local Craigslist, but I don't have the time to renew the ad every couple days. I did get a few out of state callers that found it on Google (Kentucky, Utah, Colorado, Nebraska, and someone from Chicago that left a message, but didn't return my call. Was that you Sim?). To be honest, I'm not really *that* motivated in getting rid of it. So I won't be bothered with arranging shipping. If someone is genuinely interested in the car we can do a bank transfer, and they can line up a trucking company of their choice. Depending on the cost I may pay part of it.

I'll add some interior shots. but for some reason when I resize they get distorted.

It wasn't me. I live in Oregon, but have friends in Indiana. If I could get it there they could hold it for me until I could arrange for me or friends to road-trip it out to OR.

I don't think he really wants to sell it
I PM'ed him my email and asked if he would send the pictures, (I can resize them) and that I was interested
(I am)!
So far no email and no response so take that for what it's worth!
