Description
Motodrome offer this exceptional 1999/ T example of the rare, full-fat, high-performance Volvo V70 R Estate, this one an AWD automatic, finished in Laser Blue with Beige half- leather/ diamond stitched alcantara sports trim.
Not to be confused with the more numerous T5, the ‘R’ models (which are now appreciating rapidly in value) have many extra tweaks that take the performance and handling to higher levels, including 240bhp as standard, uprated suspension inc thicker anti roll bars and sports dampers, 17” alloys, and a bigger front airdam.
Otherwise it has the usual high R spec: aircon (working), cruise control (working) ABS (working), half-leather trim, switchable automatic, electric heated front seats/ sunroof/ windows, central locking, front and rear spoilers, and roof rails.
Unlike many that have been heavily tuned, this one is in standard spec as far as I can tell, and it’s very clearly been well looked after all it’s life.
Unlike many of the late model R’s, this one isn’t a Japanese import, but is a rare original UK RHD example, first registered 1st May 1999, and with a V5 showing just 3 previous owners. Including one very long term, between 2004 and 2025
Odometer reading just 111000 miles, so just about run in), and recent work, apart from general servicing, includes new ABS sensors 2025, new propshaft and front discs 2024, new cambelt, CV joint and suspension arm 2024 at 110214m, rear discs 2024.
Comes with MOT to February 2027 (no advisories) and our usual 6m warranty on sale.
We have 2 sets of keys and fobs.
I’ve had several of these through my hands over the years as I really like them, and in my opinion this is probably the nicest of those. And the colour, only available on 1999/ 2000 R’s, is really striking.
