Volvo 850 t-5 saloon for sale

[MattB]

Appreciate this isn't a 7, but just in case someone's interested before it's advertised elsewhere:

One owner from new 850 Turbo (T-5) saloon, first registered 26 Jan 1994, with the following options: Verdigris green metallic paint, automatic gearbox, TRACS traction control system, air conditioning with climate control, remote central locking, front fog lights, front and rear mud flaps & floor carpets. It comes with its original sale documents and brochure.

The car has done 116000 miles (mostly long-distance motorway journeys), and has a full Volvo service history up until it was SORN’d in Feb 2017. Since then it has been stored in a garage, on flatstoppers, with stabiliser in the fuel tank, the handbrake off and a battery maintainer on the battery.

The obvious issues with the car are: The headlining on the sunroof is sagging, the glovebox catch is broken so the glovebox can’t be opened, the electric aerial has been replaced with a rubber one, a piece of trim is missing from the roof, the battery won’t hold a charge, the chrome exhaust finisher has almost rusted away & there are some small dents in the bodywork.

Given the age of the tyres, the state of the battery and the age of the fuel and the fuel system the car needs to be properly recommissioned before it can be safely started and driven. Any purchaser will therefore need to trailer it away from where it is garaged in Woking. We will not try and run the engine before sale. There were no mechanical issues with the car when it was last driven into the garage.

Please note that the car is being sold by the executors of the owner’s estate. Although viewings and offers can be accepted now, a formal sale and handover cannot be completed until probate has been granted.
