	I have finally taken the plunge and decided to sell the old girl. Due to other ongoing projects and a new (old) daily driver, I have not used the Volvo that much recently so its seems a pity to have it sitting around when somebody else could be enjoying it. Been loads of fun in the time I have owned it & its never let me down. I have done a fair bit to it including the suspension lift. I fitted a new sachs (same as original) clutch kit just a few thousand miles ago. I fitted a new rad, water pump & thermostat when I got it. The cambelt was done at 158,000. I have replaced various bushes and ball joints as needed when I did the lift. Check out the links for my original thread that has some info about the build Second link has lots of pics link link Mileage 174,879 Mot until 14/2/17 £1200, PM for more info & contact details.

	Its a 2.3 Low pressure turbo but I have upped the boost to the high pressure spec. Despite the extra height and taller tires I would say it handles better than standard. Probably due to the stiffer all terrain tyres.

	This is right up my street. Unfortunately insurance is massively prohibitive for some reason. Quotes are coming in at half the value of the car!

	still absolutely loving this and couldn't resist a cheeky bid ;-) not really got the need for it with the other cars in the fleet currently and really don't have the space, but slowly convincing myself this would be the ideal load lugger / parts chaser / dog walking car / tow vehicle :-) have you towed with it? towbar and electrics all ok?
	Last Edit: Sept 21, 2016 18:34:35 GMT by disasterbus Currently driving a 1972 BMW 1602 as my daily. Don't ask about previous cars - there have been way too many and I stopped counting at 160!

It all depends where you live etc, LONDON has always been expensive for insurance. I left the smoke and headed up to Lincoln a few years back and my premiums halved ! Helps if you are an old git as well.

Hi kerry I noticed that you couldn't help chucking a bid in ..lol Yep I have towed with it as I have a little 9ft tilt bed trailer which I carry bikes & stuff on. Last summer I loaded it up with bikes and camping kit for a week in Devon & it towed like a dream as they do. The electrics are spot on and working. I even have square & rectangular number plates for your trailer or trailer board if you need them.

I would take this in a heartbeat Really sorry but I have too many motors and projects around at the moment. I need the cash to go towards finishing my garage build which is over a year overdue thanks to a truck driver dropping half a ton of roof trusses on me & putting me in hospital ! What car are you getting rid of ?
