Trader is now looking for a cheap engine....
And the wait goes on...
I don't understand why the 'dealer' won't give you a refund under the trade descriptions act as the car was obvioulsy not 'fit for use'?
Car was getting worse, problems starting &the engine starting to knock when cold.... SO TRADED IT WITH ANOTHER DEALER for a nice SAAB turbo 185bhp :-)
Maybe post the reg up here so that other Forum members don't buy it?...
The Mods were talking about starting a "VOLVOS THAT ARE KNOWN DOGS" thread, a while ago...

Think it was this one

Looks familiar to me (i look at them enough! lol) same reg, colour, wheels and mileage and is very, very cheap for a phase 2 auto with that sort of milage.

That's old smokey Y217WDM
Don't get me wrong, it is beautiful to drive, pulls like a train & interior is mint, new tyres etc. But it burnt 5 litres of oil in 500 miles - perhaps it was 2 stroke?
Would make a lovely car for someone with the time & money to sort the engine, I do miss it, kinda got under my skin...
I reckon he would take around £600 cash + £400 to recon/replace the engine... still a cheap car for someone!
Strip & sell interior, tuned engine, instant drag strip car - autobox changes quicker than a manual ;-)
