S60r buying advice

[Jimmie]

Exactly, its a 2k job to replace disks and pads! The R cars are cheap to repair in comparison....

And you would get a shock at the price you would be offered for your RS4 in a trade in.
An S60r is much better value.
Justin do you find the Audi is very cramped inside,i did?

What was it again my mate got offered from Audi for his 1 year old RS5 with 20k of extras against a V10 R8......... mid 20s. I would have took that offer, what a deal. Naattt

[Santa]

I doubt he would want to ever part with it Jimmie, you should see his grin when he's behind the wheel of it

Not really cramped, suits me fine, i wouldn't trade it either as i love it.

So the question is who has an r for sale for 5k with all above problems sorted, il buy it

[graemewelch]

bet youll be hard pushed to find some one who will part with one thats had most are all the issues sorted. im keep saying im going to sell my t5 so can get a estate but i cant part with it.

[MattM]

You'll not find a car with a better package for the price Graeme.

[graemewelch]

Il have either if I find anice one was going to buy a evo tomorrow but I keep hanging on for a Volvo haha

[graemewelch]

if want a fast car with outstanding grip then the evo is your car. im still in two minds about my car. sell it keep it. its been up forsale 3 times, if only i could make up my mind. take your time youll find the right car. you never know you might even come across mine for sale one day

Here is a nice one................................http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/VOLVO-S60-...ht_1215wt_1271

Yeah I know already had 3 just sick of looking and waiting for a Volvo I go in full circle audis BMW merc evo and always come back to Volvo, I can have Kieron's cheap as his getting a company c30 but want something speced even tho it's a nice car, I looked at that one not a fan or the orange trim, if I bought a earlier one I'd have to get strips etc colour coordinated

[graemewelch]

this is the only one id consider on ebay. just realised who it is thats looking for a car. im happy to view any motors with you. im no expert but i do know my way around a car. you could even test me and make a cheeky offer on mine hehe

Here is some pictures of mine,






I paid £3300 for it & took me absolutely ages to find one, it came with almost full mot & just under 100k on the clocks, the amount of service history i got with it was unreal & going off the receipts the previous owners had spent thousands on it from shocks to angle gear & Rica remap (bonus) or otherwise I wouldn't of bought it,

The only problems I have had with it so far are faulty MAP sensor & blocked PCV which should be done at around 100k anyhow, Oh & my intercooler cracked so I fitted a More efficient FMIC, The paintwork is not the best got the odd scratch & scuff but after all it is nearly 10 years old.

I must admit the car is a pleasure to drive it pulls like a train in every gear, good handling comfy Safe & reliable, I am only 25 & people say to me why do you drive a granddads car but I assure you there faces sharp change when they see & here it go

Before I moved over to Volvo I was into jap crap, had an impreza with 340bhp & spent thousands on it, blew the engine up twice must say I would rather the Volvo any day!

Nice car. Shame they never bothered to fit a new DMF when they fitted the new clutch thou!! . May aswell not bothered. A new DMF with the new clutch would have made a huge difference. Instead of 100k of reliability it will be a question of 'when to change the DMF'....and while your there chuck ANOTHER clutch in too!!
