*4500£ open to offers* A rare opportunity to own an increasingly sort after Volvo 850 T5 Manual. The car was originally red, but has been painted white and transformed with a BTCC-inspired livery. The car has been enthusiast-owned and enjoyed as a daily driver over the past two years of my ownership. I now commute quite far for work which drives the sale. The car isn't concours and will need some love, but it can be driven daily, as I do, and as it should be! The previous owner was a fabricator and kept the car garaged for approximately five years while restoring it. During this time it received new sills and a boot floor, and was fully stripped back, undersealed and zinc coated. Recent Maintenance: - Genuine Bosch camshaft position sensor fitted (August 2026) - Genuine Bosch distributor cap and OEM rotor arm fitted (May 2026) - OEM crankshaft position sensor fitted (May 2026) - OEM offside front brake calliper fitted (March 2026) - New front brake discs and pads (March 2026) - OEM heater matrix hoses replaced (December 2025) - Coolant hoses replaced (December 2025) - Front brake hoses replaced (both sides) (August 2025) - Genuine Volvo fuel pump fitted (July 2025) - Underside cleaned back, rust treated, zinc coated, and fully undersealed (2024) - Timing Belt replaced (2024) - New Sills and Boot Floor (2024) - New tires (2024) The car is structurally solid underneath and presents very well from below. Modifications (nothing silly, just tasteful few bits): - White respray with BTCC-inspired graphics - BSR induction kit - K&N cone air filter - Bilstein Shocks and Apex Lowered suspension - Forge intake and dump valve - Volvo 850 Titan alloy wheels A custom fabricated full 3" TIG welded stainless steel exhaust from turbo back with 4" tip is also available by separate negotiation if desired Known Faults: - Headliner sagging - Heater blower currently not working - Driver side window switch inoperative - Odometer not working - estimated mileage closer to 166,000 - Slight oil leak on engine but not excessive - Rear bumper mounting bracket requires replacement - Paintwork shows its age and reflects its daily use - Coil springs beginning to show signs of corrosion - Common issue of ABS & Tracs light on This is not a concours example, nor is it pretending to be one. Instead, it's an honest, enthusiast-owned T5 Manual with solid structural and engine condition, in a fun livery! Insurance is surprisingly cheap too even with mods! Thanks! :)
