For Sale: Big Red - 2001 V70T5

A T5 that someone ordered with all the bells and whistles, including the cell phone option.

213K miles. Uses no oil, solid engine and transmission, no mechanical issues. 5K synth oil changes. New water pump, alternator, ignition switch, front subframe IPD bushing inserts. PCV kit about 4 years old. Turbo rear water hose replaced, No noise from CV shafts, turbo control hoses replaced. Just got back from a 700 mile round trip at 80mph, and it ran like a top. average 21 MPG, 23.5 on the trip itself. A/C works great, but I don't use it that often.

Body is great, no wrecks, good paint.

Interior: replaced front seats and they have great leather - not splits, cracks, etc. Back seat almost unused. Window shade cargo cover. Rubber mats all around.

Issues:
the headlight washers and wipers do not work
Rear window washer does not work
The driver's seat heater does not work - it's not the seat, it's a relay, or maybe the switch
Passenger side driving light lens is cracked
The timing belt and tensioners should be replaced around November. just to be safe
The SRS light is on, and I will get it turned off. It was triggered when the ignition switch went bad - low voltage.
The "passenger side open" warning keeps coming on - I don't open that door much so the microswitch sticks. It will eventually go out - oddly, if I use the key to lock the car, it will not come on, next time I start the car. The annoying part is, it will trigger the car alarm system.
Needs firewall insulation
Minor wind whistle from rear of sunroof at higher speeds
Mediocre tires
The subframe inserts creak a bit at hard turns - I and IPD Can't figure out why. And it isn't predictable, either. Sometimes it creaks, sometimes it does not. Subframe bolts are torqued correctly. A rattle in the back left inside, sounds like something metal tapping glass - it's not constant - most of the time, it won't rattle.. An occasional rattle from the overhead console - sounds like a loose light bulb. It takes rough roads to make them happen.

$2500

Do you have proof it came with the car phone? I didnt see the telltale signs. Im sure Im only 1 in a few on here that would salivate over the novelty of the phone option. Should be set up similar to the s80 t6. Would be cool to swap to manual

Very nice wagon, I’m sure you put quite a bit of work into it. What are you upgrading to?
Looking for a V90 to be my next Volvo, at the very least a T5.

2017 XC90 Inscription - My best Volvo by far, but Ex-wife departed & I had to sell. 😕
2001 S80 T6 - rebuilt trans, head gasket, fixed & sold
1997 V70 - kid car, sold
1996 850 GLT - found under bridge, 2 year refurb project, commuter car, kid car, T-Boned - SIPS saved passenger. Totaled.
1997 VW GTI VR6 - exceedingly fast.
1971 VW Type II/231 - it was pointed out by management that the children would be killed in it.
