mans442 Posted November 6, 2015 Report Share Posted November 6, 2015 After years of searching and missing opportunities for a V70R, I have finally put a deposit on one after test driving another in VT last weekend. 2006 V70R with Manual transmission.Grey over blue interior.Mileage: 115KOriginally a VA car. Two previous owners. Sold as CPO to second owner in 2011.New clutch.Timing Belt job complete.Exceptionally clean exterior and very good interior. Asking price at dealer was $13,000. I negotiated it down to $11,500, which I feel is probably top of the market with the mileage. I am going to have it inspect the angle gear at the dealer before I take delivery ( and provide payment). If there are any other specific things to inspect for, other than the obvious automotive concerns, let me know. Thanks!Jason Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tommy B. Posted November 8, 2015 Report Share Posted November 8, 2015 inspect the 4c suspensions shock, they are pricey to replace Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mans442 Posted November 11, 2015 Author Report Share Posted November 11, 2015 Thanks. I was able to get another discount since the air charge from the FMIC has a leak at the connector. Very clean car inside an out. The middle seat belt is inoperable and needs replacement, I removed it to inspect and attempt to repair, but now the air bag light is on.Of course, the used car dealer is fighting me on everything. I would post a photo if I knew how! Thanks again,Jason Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youropeen Posted November 12, 2015 Report Share Posted November 12, 2015 Was this the one from 777 Auto? Congrats on your new ride. If you need any diagnostics via Vida/Dice let me know. I'm right up the road in Dover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mans442 Posted November 16, 2015 Author Report Share Posted November 16, 2015 Yes, it is the one from 777 Auto. The car has a few issues, but very clean and I was able to knock down the price a bit. Would love any advice in learning more about these cars from the ownership perspective. Thanks for reaching out. Jason Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
