I've kept up with servicing and maintenance of this car!
Being a 19 year old car there are some bad points and current faults though including.
The sunroof doesn't work
The in dash CD changer doesn't work
The car occasionally shows an 'anti skid system maintnence' message. It can be months between the message showing and seems to dissapear when the car is restarted.
One of the wheels has a very small kerb mark around 10mm long on the rim. The paint has been chipped but the wheel itself is unmarked.
What's included as well as what's described above.
-2 keys
-Original volvo manuals and service book
-Original volvo rubber winter mat set
-Original volvo blue carpet mat set
-2 X Volvo remotes for the hifi
-The original sat nav screen unit which I removed as it's really outdated now and the dashboard looks neater without it.
-Original exhaust downpipe with catalytic converter plus ferrita sports exhaust system.
-Service history records and receipts.
-Haynes manual
Optional things that could be purchased if required (but not included as standard):
-Spare standard wheels with Michelin cross climate tyres
-Spare Nordkap blue leather front seat covers
-VIDA diagnostic cableThis is my 2nd S60. I'm a massive fan of the P2 platform for it's combination of comfort, excellent build quality, the 5 cylinder sound and the boosty turbo performance.
The spec of this car is extremely rare. The 2, 4 T5 engine is known to be the strongest and most tunable version and the 6 speed transmission is far superior to the autos which tend to be weak and problematic.
This car shares all the nice parts of the S60R having had the interior, engine and braking system upgrades while being a lot more reliable, having the more reliable 2. 4l engine and doing without the unreliable awd system.
Basically this is the S60 that you want.
I've owned the car since 2016 and bought the car with around 60, 000 miles showing.
The previous owner had owned the car from 2012 to 2016 and had purchased the car from his father who had bought the car as an approved used car from Volvo.
It's extremely clean with none of the small dings and dents that seem to plaugue these cars especially down the sides. Apart from the expected small stone chips the exteior is in really great shape.
Thes cars are amazingly resiliant so there's no signs or rust anywhere on it.
I upgraded the wheels to the S60R 17" pegasus wheels are they are 7" wide (rather than the 6. 5" wide standard wheels) and also look really great. I didn't go for the 18" versions as the ride is pretty firm on these cars anyway and I didn't want it to be any worse.
The wheels feature reasonably fresh Michelin Pilot sport 4 tyres.
The brakes have been upgraded to the larger XC90 disks and front calipers to accomodate the upgrade in power this car has.
The headlights are the optional HID units and are nice and clear.
I spent a long time finding the S60R interior as the leather and carpets are of a much higher quality than you find in this model as standard which makes it a really nice place to be.
The interior is in really great shape with no rips or tears in the leather and the metallic Nordkap blue is really nice and by far the best of the 3 colours these interiors came in.
I've also replaced the instrument cluster with the S60 cluster as it's really attractive with the blue dials and front illumination. The mileage of the cluster was changed to reflect the mileage of the car at the time it was replaced.
The car has been upgraded with help from Shem Green at Shemtek and is approx 350hp. The map is quite progressive so the car drives really smoothly with a linear power delivery.
I'm a bit OCD about my cars so only the highest quality products have been used.
I've always changed the oil every 6000 miles since I've owned it and used redline fully synthetic oil.
