Vehicle Detail
One of seventy (70) produced, ultra rare, 1995 T5R 850 yellow wagon available to a new home. This limited production, race inspired, 850T5R is in excellent condition with approximately 167,000 miles. Per a recent article in Hemmings Sport & Exotic (Feb 2012); the T5R was listed as one of the sixteen to buy for future collectors. "Volvo joined forces with TWR in 1993 to campaign the new front wheel drive 850 in BTCC racing, and from 1994-96, the 850 wagon and sedan were both raced. Volvo used the TWR racing development experience to create the 155mph T5R, which pushed the automakers's cars into uncharted performance territory. Available in black or trademark T5R yellow, with sport-suspended, BTCC-aping anthracite 17-inch Titan alloys and large front and rear spoilers, these 850s had upgraded engine software to push the 2.3-liter, 20-valve DOHC inline five to 240hp at 5,600 RPM and 221-lbs.ft of torque at 2,100 RPM." "Just 1,023 T-5Rs were imported for 1995, 176 of which were wagons; of the lot, 70 wagons and 381 sedans were yellow." All available options were standard on this car. All systems in excellent working condition with no known mechanical issues. Just passed California's stringent smog test easily. This wagon has been professionally repainted with an excellent match to the original paint along with slightly flared wheel well openings. The interior is in excellent condition and has been upgraded with 1998 "R" seats front and rear, and Alcantra black suede headliner. The wheels are 17" "R" Pegs in Hyper Silver color. Original tri-fold matching owners manual, yellow scripted "850" floor mats, and remote key fob included. I will assist with delivery within California, transportation from regional airports, and having car inspected locally. Vehicle is sold "AS IS" with no warranty. This is a used car with a clean title.
