Very nice. We had an XC90 T6 on trial and it was just a very nice car all round. Did you get a chance to have a good look at the boot/bumper etc?
Yeah, see if you can see how many kerbs it's slid into in it's life. :p Seriously though, for me, accident damage would be a big one. The earlier...
Pitying the person who randomly comes up to your property and causes £2700 worth of damage for absolutely no reason? Ha, no. *Even* if they have...
Unbelievable. £2700 because some absolute **** was ****** off with something. I've just looked on YouTube for videos of people keying cars and...
There's a difference between an educated assessment of damage versus blind scaremongering. If you'd replace a tyre for that, that's your lookout,...
Well, for a start you avoid any issues with people moaning it isn't as described. What they see is what they get. Secondly, you don't have any...
I would say a wrap is unlikely given that it's a Volvo and the T* badge is also incorrect. Ultimately, if both rear lights have original...
Yeh £400 is a rip off. Just book it through the online system? It should be £129 for an oil service, £194 for an oil service w/ microfilter...
I'll be honest, I'd tell him that for the good of both of you - you'll happily take a decent (non refundable) deposit and hold the car for him...
Yeh this simply wouldn't happen. And it absolutely wouldn't happen that they put the Volvo badge in the wrong place on the boot lid, and not even...
This will have almost certainly had a rear end shunt of some description, and the workmanship appears to be questionable at best. Top tip: have a...
No worries. Out of interest, what did it all come to inc painting?
lol...your wipers strained for a second and blew up your alternator? Vintage Acme.... :p
Ah good news! Now, time to drain that fuel tank....
Love this thread. Threads like this make it feel like the old OcUK motors rather than today's rather boring, quiet Motors where people just seem...
I love buying cars privately. You can normally pick out a good private car just by the pictures and the description - a 2 minute conversation...
Nah coolant is on a closed system and shouldn't move at all. When you top it up, make sure you do so when the engine is stone cold, so you have a...
It'll probably be something stupid like they haven't plugged in the oil level/temp sensor properly - hopefully a 20 minute job. If it was anything...
A lot of it is just based on the headlines though. The other day, after rising for a few days, all tourism/hospitality/airline and energy stock...
Had to drive back in the snow yesterday after work at midnight - it's was absolutely horrendous. I don't think I took a breath or blinked for half...
