Blimey! You can't wrong with that! You'd get more than that by breaking it and selling bits.

Nice buy. You'll need that dash fixed soon (or just break the car for parts), there's several ways to sort it, depending on the depth of your pockets

decided to break it for parts, as a friend with V70 wanted the alloys,which has almost paid for the car.
{I break cars for parts anyway}
got it listed on ebay
same ebay id as my username on here.
any one out there want/need parts just get in touch.

your right! £200 for the wheels, £50 boot lock, head light wipers £30, and some guy from portugal paid £100 for the rear lights!all in a few days.

Torque app, an Android pad and a cheap blue tooth OBC code reader? Had a S40 2.0T SE many years ago, dash went wibble. £700 to replace, at the time it was worth £6k plus so was worth it.

Cost me £732.50 to get the DIM on my V70 changed. They can be fixed but mine was too far gone.
The DIM or Geartronic seems to spell the end of so many early P2 cars, which is a shame as they're such good motors when they're up-together. Mine owes me £4K in repairs and modifications (2.5K alone in repairs) and I doubt I'd get £1500 for it but it's faster, safer and handles better than it did when it was new so I'm happy

this is the trouble with cars today,simple thing like this one dashboard failure over £700 to put right makes it a write off!
any way lots of parts sold off it so at least helping other s60 owners keep costs of repairs down.
