1999 Volvo V70 R AWD For Sale - £10,950

1999 Volvo V70 R AWD – Exceptional Low Mileage, Only 2 Previous Owners, Original & Unmodified.

An outstanding opportunity to acquire an original, unmodified 1999 Volvo V70 R AWD (Phase 2) with exceptionally low mileage and a fully documented service and maintenance history.

Finished in Silver Metallic with the original electrically adjustable and heated black leather/Alcantara R seats (rarely found in such excellent condition), this car also features the distinctive blue R instrument dials and alloy interior trim. Powered by the legendary 2.3-litre 250bhp T5 turbo engine, this is the highly desirable all-wheel drive version. Having had just three enthusiast owners from new, it has enjoyed only light domestic use and has been carefully preserved throughout its life.

The car has never been smoked in, used for towing, or carried animals. It comes complete with both keys, the original owner's handbook pack, and comprehensive documentation. As the flagship successor to the iconic 850 R, this is believed to be one of the lowest-mileage classic-shape V70 R AWD examples available today.

A substantial history file accompanies the car, including every receipt from new and a detailed maintenance log demonstrating that it has wanted for nothing. It was maintained by the supplying dealer, HR Owen Volvo, Regent's Park, until late 2006 before being cared for by respected independent specialists. Since 2010 (at approximately 55,000 miles), the car has effectively been cherished as a modern classic. The second owner, a qualified mechanic, carried out routine servicing himself, while both subsequent owners avoided bad weather use and kept the car garaged.

To continue its preservation, the underside was professionally cleaned and treated with Waxoyl in June 2024 (photographs available). The cambelt and water pump—essential maintenance on these engines—were replaced in June 2023 at 57,745 miles. A full service was completed by a respected independent specialist in December 2025 at 58,228 miles, including five new spark plugs. The current mileage is just 59,453 miles.

Specification includes:
• 2.3-litre 250bhp T5 turbo engine with AWD
• Electrically adjustable heated black leather/Alcantara R seats
• Blue R instrument dials and alloy interior trim
• ABS, SIPS and WHIPS safety systems
• Front and side airbags

This is an increasingly rare opportunity to own an exceptionally original, low-mileage V70 R AWD that has never been modified and has been meticulously maintained throughout its life. Combining the renowned durability and practicality of a classic Volvo estate with genuine sports car performance and the distinctive R specification, it is a superb example of a modern classic that continues to appreciate in value.

Car will come with 12 months MOT
