Great-running T5 with RARE manual tranny! Needs new rear main crankshaft seal. The Good:Great boost, just shy of 11 psi on warm summer days, makes this S70 Turbo fun to drive! 237 hpShifts, steers, and brakes smoothly and evenlyIPD heavy-duty suspension sway bars (cross bars) front and rear, improve cornering dramatically!CV boots in good shape, not cracked or tornNew, within last 5,000 miles: Bosch cap and rotor; Volvo OEM plugs; both Bosch oxygen sensors; plug wires; all vacuum hoses and elbowsTiming belt and water pump replaced at 210,000, good now to 280,000Nice sound from fully-functional CD player / radioVolvo OEM trailer hitch #3529210 and drawbar with 2" ball. Trailer weight up to 1,500 pounds without brakes (no trailer brake option on controller)Oil and filter replaced regularly. I use Bosch oil filters.No engine warning codes (no CEL)Safety and emissions inspected April 2014Plenty of meat left on brake pads The not-so-good:Rear main crankshaft seal needs replacement. Not a simple job. Leaking one quart per 120 miles. Will need tires soonAC / Cruise non-functionalTears at seams on front seats, a small hole on driver seatPower seats work, but require a lot of force on the controls to make them workRight-rear power window UP does not work from main control (but works from that window)Right-front power door unlock does not work. The LOCK works, however.Remote key fob (1 incl) is hit-or-miss, and keys (2 incl) will not unlock door, so I've been leaving driver door unlockedMinor issues with interior trim, such as cracked cup holder (but functional)Exterior dents, dings, scrapes, and scratches, typical of a vehicle of this age and mileageA few small rust spots on paint, but overall, the exterior is really quite decent Other disclosures:Struck from left side in low-speed collision, activating side air bag. Both doors needed replacement. No fender or frame damage.I can detect a subtle engine resonance at 2800-3000 rpm. Volvo dealer checked it out, and said there is nothing wrong. Maybe it's normal, or just me. Been that way for 100,000 miles.I have not replaced the clutch since I've owned the vehicle (100,000 miles). Seems to be fine, but I don't know if it's the original, or how much it has left.I've replaced everything in the suspension, but just can't seem to get rid of all the clunks (I am overly sensitive to this). This is the only thing I have not been happy about with this car.Bill-of-Sale will be written for the exact amount of the sale price. I will not write you one for less than that, so please do not ask. VEHICLE SOLD AS-IS, no warranties. I have disclosed everything I know of, in good faith. I may have missed a thing or two. I have not put band-aids on anything, or cleared any engine codes, etc. The vehicle has nearly 235,000 miles on it. If something happens after you drive away, I am not going to negotiate with you. I reserve the right to end this listing early, if the vehicle sells by another means other than ebay. IF YOU CAN LIVE WITH THE LITTLE NUISANCES, YOU WILL FIND THIS CAR REALLY IS A BLAST TO DRIVE!
