Bo'ness is only about 10 minutes down the road from me mate. Don't mind going and taking a look for you, but I'll be working all week so would struggle to be able to go see it in daylight

 

[Mr R.]

Amazing stuff.

Ill PM you mate.

You're a week too soon for me but if you still need someone a week tomorrow I'm off all that week and generally know my way round a car!

Stuart is willing to view the car for me, however the car is a Volvo 850 T5. http://www.carandclassic.co.uk/car/C554392#

I could do with someone who has a bit a knowledge as i don't want to be booking flights to collect a dog.
The owner is about on Friday, i have a list of things to look for on these but i don't know if Stuart will be out of his depth with this car?

Thanks guys

Scott.

Viewed and walked from a white saloon t5 before but can't do Friday. Soonest would be a week Monday. Depending on if you get it and when you fly up it would be no bother to take you to collect though. Bo'ness is a pain in the hoop to get to by public transport. (I guess!)

If you come up for it Scott you're more than welcome to PM me for a lift to get it.

I'll fire you my number if need be. In regards to the car probably best someone with sound mechanical knowledge looks at it like John/ Dave etc.

I might be a little lol.

I don't mind going and having a look around the car. It's a well documented example so shouldn't be much to look out for in theory. There's buyers guides online I've found too, but if someone else was able to go who had a bit more knowledge about these cars than I do I wouldn't be at all offended if you wanted them to go instead Scott.

I could take 2 mechanics with me if needed but you would prob be looking at Saturday afternoon before I could look at it as I don't want to be looking at it in the dark in the evening

You are a legend mate, if i come up then im hoping to do it next weekend (sunday 23rd would be best) ive told the seller that Stuart will be popping along so for now ill leave things as they are.
Mechanically the car should be spot on having been serviced by Volvo, its rust i worry about and im sure that Stu will be able to see if it is rusty.

Thank you mate you're a star.
