another one to the collection

[p fandango]

altho i haven't picked it up yet a couple of days ago i brought another Volvo, a 2002 S60 D5 SE. I originally was just looking at any reasonably priced diesel to use for daily duties & after test driving a few from other manufactures was quite disappointed by the level of comfort in them. Having had my 850 for 10years with no problems i had a look see what Volvo had to offer, S40's always seemed a bit small for me so went to look at this S60. It only took me to sit in the drivers seat & i knew i'd found what i was looking for (aslong as the seller would move enough on the price






not sure the cream leather is a good idea for me really lol

it has got a few niggles, mileage is 150k which is a bit higher than i'd like. Th gearlever gaitor is really worn (already purchased a new one off ebay for £10) & it needs a new lid for the centre armrest/cupholder cover as the hinges have broke

but i couldn't believe the equipment list on it

• STC traction control
• full electric windows
• cream leather
• 4disc in-dash prologic stereo
• cruise control
• twin cigeratte lighters (one front one rear)
• dual zone climate control
• trip computer
• heated front windscreen (didn't know this was available)
• & obviously all the usual electric mirrors etc

over the weekend the garage is putting a fresh 12month MOT on it, 2 new tyres on & servicing it, for £2550 i really don't think you can moan

These are such a bargain now

These are such a bargain now

i couldn't believe the spec of the car for the money, when you consider what you get on a Mondeo for the same price there is no comparison

Nice buy at that money - you can live with a couple of minor trim bits that need replacing!

when we turned up he'd still got the window sticker in for £2995 so got almost £500 off his original asking price (it was advertised at £2695 on ebay & Autotrader tho). After putting up with BT for so long i think i can manage with a bit of rattling from the armrest till its replaced lol

Looks a really nice motor

for 7years old it really is in good condition, only found one 3" scratch on one of the doors. No obvious parking dinks or anything

That is sickeningly cheap.

The lids on the centre all break, same with the dash cup holder.
Are you sure the heated front screen isnt just the demist?

i was going to walk away inless he went to £2500, but putting 2 tyres on & a fresh MOT has got to be worth the extra £50 lol

the cup holder still defo works lol

Are you sure the heated front screen isnt just the demist?

tbh i didn't notice it but my bro did, i thought it might of been demist as well but he says the button was seperate to the normal heater controls & paired up with the heated rear window button. So tbh it is only a guess but is a Ford man so just taking his word for now, it took us a while to figure out how the trip computer works so i'll have to have a read up on the owners manual

my thought exactly the main reason i would like a d5 is the ammount of tourque you can get out of them its amazing

i haven't even picked it up yet, & altho i'd love to get it remapped (never thought i'd say that lol) i can't see it happening. The idea is to use the D5 to save money, to spend on the T5 then lol

just ordered another gadget for BT, i'll tell you more when i see you
