Ok, here goes
3/96 Volvo 850R
210,000km
B5423T5 and Auto Transmission
Dark Olive Pearl with Beige Suede interior
Engine starts, runs and drives great.
Auto works perfectly
Brakes are good but discs show signs of prolonged sitting, could use a machine at a minimum.
2 x Bridgestone Potenza 205/50R17 with about 75% tread in really good shape
2 x Federal Super Steel 595 215/45R17 with about 60% tread, slight shoulder wear and some slight cracking and cuts from touching the guards
4 x Volans in good shape, most have some slight gutter marks on the outside lip only.
Body is really good, not a sign of any rust of any sort.
Small dent in lhf guard (corner of a door or something similar i suspect)
Slight scratches in the paint typical of a car of this age, I reckon 99% would disappear with a polish
One heavy scratch about 50mm long from the bottom of the tailgate window to the top of the tailgate handle
A patch of clear has come off in the top rhr corner, no idea why. The green is undamaged so should be an easy repair.
The rear spoiler needs to be painted as it is currently blue. or can be easily removed.
Some scratches to front and rear bumpers.
Interior was very dirty when I got the car, have spent hours cleaning it, it is much better but could still use more effort if you want it perfect.
Front seat leather is not great, I have been treating it in an attempt to soften it up, working but still a way to go.
Back seat really good
Air conditioning cycles rapidly but doesn't get cold, I would assume gas is low.
Scratch in the window tint on lhr door.
The genuine light woodgrain has been removed from the dash at some stage and aftermarket stuff has been applied, it is similar to the silver/grey stuff fitted to the black interior cars but is not done to the standard I would like.
Interior tailgate handle surround is missing
rhf fog light broken but works
Is a 5 seater but has the 3rd row seating installed, it is all there bar the seatbelts, seats can be easily removed if you don't want them.
Clear side indicators
V70 Taillights
Correct SC-815 radio with led bulb conversion
Brand new set of later model wheel centre caps in black
Grille has been painted black and later style grille badge fitted,
the other car has also includes a chrome one if you prefer the original
S/V70 secondary bonnet catch conversion
All turbo vacuum hoses just replaced.
Near new tailgate struts.
Brand new air flow meter fitted.
I also have a
full set of woodgrain dash plastics and a complete headlight wiper assembly on the way to me if wanted.
Full mongoose Alarm fitted with remote central locking etc.
Comes with
a current Qld safety certificate but no rego
at this stage, my aim was get the rego organised in the next couple of weeks.

Also included is a complete '94 Volvo 850 sedan with a M56 manual transmission. This car is a goer so everything is there for the manual conversion, the car was registered when i got it with the only faults being damage to the bonnet and a broken exhaust. I have since remove a pile of stuff to fix up the wagon, it is still very much a going vehicle. Air con is freezing.
