Points to highlight:
1) Had an electrical fault which caused regular battery drain (suspected cause was the factory fitted satnav) -this went to Volvo (at Eastbourne) who have a C70 specialist technician- This fault was confirmed to be due to the satnav not shutting down properly-A full diagnostic was carried out and this was FULLY RESOLVED (the technician put in a bypass - see invoice explaining what was done dated June 2026). This Included rewiring and also replacing the battery for a specific Volvo one (Again in June 2026) (cost of @700 -see invoice for 1025 when other work also done)
2) intermittent engine light was showing on the dashboard -Again I took this to Volvo - Codes showed high fuel pressure sensor, replacement needed and clutch position sensor replacement needed - The Fuel Sensor, Clutch position sensor & pedal switch have ALL BEEN REPLACED (cost of 718)
3) Some paintwork requires touch up (2x scrapes as per pics and other smaller general wear & tear marks). I know these could be touched up by the right person
Reason for sale:
I own 2x cars (this and a 4x4 which now is being scrapped). I am getting a new car to replace both
