Hi Guys,
As many of you already know, I sold my Nautic V70R BACK to foammanmark. I had to get a diesel for commuting purposes which I was content with for a month. It seemed like fate that I needed to get back into a volvo though because within a week of commuting to my new job I saw a neglected Brilliant Red (pink) 850R in a garage yard. I went to enquire that day after work but the owner wasn't their to discuss the sale. Anyways I went to see it yesterday, it had been stood for around 1.5yrs however started no problem. The paintwork is faded but have already brought half the car back to life. I feel that me and my dad got it for a steal of a price.
The car is a 1996 850R Auto - Completely standard! 170k
Work to do is - Oil return seal on the turbo, full service, intense clean up operation!
Once it's had a good Stage 0 I'll get it on the road and will be my Friday to work car.
Any tips or advice will be welcomed. So happy to be back!
Rohit
