_ethrty-Andy_ 2133 Report post Posted September 20, 2010 (edited) Hey guys. need to sell the Volvo now the E30 is nearing completion. Will be on trademe by weeks end if not sold prior green colour, a little rough around the edges and done 280xxxkms but was used as a commuter hence the high kays so at least half of that is just cruising at 100kmh. virtually all bearings, gasets, bushings etc (all the wear items) have been replaced at least once some cases twice. new tyres right round less than 5000kms ago. Is the top specced model with the 2.3L intercooled turbo engine which runs exactly as it should, and the transmission is not notchy or jerky at all. all new fluids less than 5000kms ago as well. Has a warrent till November and rego has just gone last month Is a high specced example with heated seats, fully automatic climate control (i have removed the belt to the compressor as i dont use aircon but car will come supplied with a new belt never been used), automatic lights, airbag, side impact bars, overdrive switch, sunroof, seven seats, and the garrett turbo in place of the mitsubishi one Surprisingly economical when driving the car off boost, returns around 8-9L/km. heavy foot-ness will have the car on boost so obviouslly drops a bit, but easy to keep off it. The car also is pretty grunty as well with the biger engine and the turbo. Again, as the car has been driven at high cruising speed, turbo is not worn like you would expect on a turboed car with this many kms. Has a few cosmetic issues you would expect from this milage car, but mecahnical things that may or may not need attention: sunroof does not open/close/tilt as it is taped shut because it needs a new seal (leaks on heavy downpour + parked car facing down hill). also drivers window goes up and down but i think the window is loose on the bracket. rear left door opens from the inside always, but only sometimes from the outside, again probably just a bar loose. panel on tailgate is loose, held on by tape. Seats are all fine except for one place where the fabric has come apart at the seam, no damage to fabric just needs a stitch or five. Looking for $1500 ono, or swap for a BMW cash either way, anything considered. All in all makes a perfect work wagon, or a run about that doesnt point it nose up when the going gets tough, such as carting E30 parts from your moms http://www.carjam.co.nz/car/?plate=xj1319 Thanks, Andy 0273079322 or PM Edited October 13, 2010 by _Ethrty-Andy_ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
