FOR SALE 2001 V70 T5 Excellent mechanics Vacaville CA $4000

Post by Checksix »

Very well maintained at 205K miles (one owner). All service is current with recent serp belt and tensioner, timing belt with all parts replaced along with scheduled PM on the water pump. XmodeX throttle position sensor added 25K ago even though original still worked. New battery in August (I replace at 6 year intervals). Transmission has been regularly serviced (fill and drain 10 quarts) every 33K miles along with the power steering and antifreeze at 50K intervals. Brakes were recently flushed (PM every 3 years) and new front disk and pads at 200K. Tires about 50% left (Michelin's). New heater core at about 180K.

Car drives exactly the same as when I purchased new. Driver seat has wear, but rest of interior looks almost new. Car uses no oil between 5K interval changes with only synthetic oil being used since new. The oil hardly gets darker when time for a change. I am retired, so that should give you an idea that an old man drove this wonderfully reliable V70 very tenderly (I average about 26 mpg). The car has NEVER been in the shop except for the fuel pump recall.

Car has no oil leaks and the engine is very clean. Turbo return gaskets done at 175K along with service on the PVC system. When doing this service there was no sludge build up at all and technically wasn't needed, but I do things like that. When the intake manifold was off, I noted that the intake valves look exceptionally clean with no build up at all (I use Chevron 100%).

Car is easily worth more than $5K, but I will accept $4K. I am firm with this price as it is already "priced to sell" at this level. E-mail me with any questions. [email protected]
