98 S70 T5 with a stick and replacement low mileage engine.

Car looks like it has a lot of 'goodies' on it, but also has a few serious issues (front axle boots) and was standing for 10 years. Rims are also a personal taste item and also needs new tires.

Looks like Comets... they need to go back to their stock hyper silver! Nice car overall though, would be even nicer for a little less!

I’ll bet they’re that plasti-dip stuff, which should come off.

Now here is a nice looking car. Not sure what the inside is like but look at the mileage! 138,000km only on a 98 (about 86,000 miles).

I think they mean it needs an ABS module not a pump.

Road rash on one side, looks like the scrappers got the cat.
$500 is about what the recyclers are paying for pure junkers - but they want the cat, too.

Pretty clean, not bad on miles, even the seats look nice. Right year but wrong colour for Abscate.
