  • [sold] 850 T5 wagon, auto, blown HG

Long story behind this, but the short version is that it is in my yard and I don't want it to be...

Appears to be a very tidy car under the tree gunk. Clear coat on the roof is bad, bonnet seems good.

HG is blown between two cylinders, apparently. I'm told it still runs (badly) to get it onto a trailer.
Auto.

Tyres are good.
Interior is very good, apart from some wear on the driver's seat. Not smoked in.
Tow bar.
Unreg, no plates (was NSW rego).

Located in Yass NSW. I can help with cheap delivery to Sydney in the near future.

Asking $600 ono. Make an offer.

The camera flash makes this look a LOT worse than it does IRL









Better photos... Make an offer.




You don't have Ryan's $50, Mike.
Hey, I'm interested. Can you tell us anything more about the vehicle. Might be a nice project. Is it high K's? Was the car ok prior to blown HG. Auto trans ok etc! How long been sitting? Thanks in advance
Great colour!!
@ovlov94 , if you take this , the roof can be vinyl wrapped easily , diy if you are patient.
I solved the clear coat issus on my v70 bonnet with nice sparkly black. The roof is next , a Swedish flag possibly.....(bonnet was $60 of vinyl from importer)
Love an old 850...

I don't have a lot of history on it, so please forgive my vagueness: it was apparently a very well looked after car that was running beautifully before the HG let go. The general vibe of the car supports this.

I don't know how long it sat for, but the gunk on the roof & bonnet suggested more than 3 months, less than 12. It was started recently, and apparently ran the same as it did when parked.

I will need to check the odo (will do tomorrow).

I may be interested too, but would have to work out the logistics of getting it to Brisbane if I were to buy it? What year is it? Is there any signs that confirm the hg being blown?
@Spac Would be great if you could advise K's thanks in advance.

@Ex850R Ha, good idea! I've thought about the vinyl wrap for other vehicles but way too fussy. I'd forever be thinking about the paintwork under the vinyl wrap that I should have fixed up. :)

"Runs like poop, makes the 'gum leaf noise' when it's running, pushing some oil out, two cylinders not firing".

I should have gone and checked things today, but was too busy rocking the housework instead...
