Comments from the seller

Olive Green Metallic Volvo 850R Wagon. It doesn't get much cooler. This car has been my daily for the last 5 years. Heaps of space for hauling the family and their cargo. 5 cylinder sound track with enough get up and go to keep any revhead interested. It is the full package. And looks super cool. I have been a fast volvo wagon fan for quite a while, after buying this car and daily driving it I was amazed at how many other closet fast volvo wagon lovers are out there. It gets comments and thumbs up all the time. Over the five years of ownership I have had heaps of mechanical work done. Now it just needs some TLC in the aesthetic department. I don't have the energy for it at the moment and need a more modern daily. Work carried out. -new front shocks(bilstein touring) -new front springs(stock) -water pump and timing belt -engine mounts top and bottom -strut top mounts -spring carriers -new subframe bushings -numerous suspension bushings -various new hoses, water and inlet. -transmission replacement with a warranted used item from Berry Motors. -rebuilt head(due to burnt exhaust valve) -New rings and honed bores(original bore size) -new crankshaft seals -drive shaft universal joints reconditioned -new rear door struts -ceramic tint on windows What it needs. -tint on the left rear window. Just replaced with genuine volvo glass and hasn't been re tinted. -paint needs some love or a respray in places due to usual clear coat problems. Roof paint needs a small repair. -could do with replacement seat covers on the front seats. Optional Stereo has been installed for extra $$. Head unit(included) with Apple car play. JL audio front splits(included), rockford fosgate coaxial rear(included), ten inch rockford fosgate sub below the rear floor(optional). Rockford fosgate 4 channel amp and single channel focal sub amp(both optional)
