Vehicle Details
AI Listing Summary
This 1997 Volvo 850 CD estate is a desirable manual transmission model with a low 67,315 miles and three former keepers, presented in an attractive green and grey combination. It's noted as an increasingly collectible modern classic, offering a blend of practicality and driving engagement.
While described as 'superbly presented', it was declared a Category C on February 6th, 2003, though it is back on the road with a valid MOT until April 2026, which is a significant factor to consider.
Condition

The car is described as 'superbly presented' and 'remarkably modest' with low mileage (67,315 miles). It has an 'excellent 1990s Volvo styling' and 'well presented example'. While not explicitly stating any damage, the condition is described as 'very attractive period colour combination' and 'increasingly sought-after modern classic', suggesting it is in very good condition for its age, but likely has some minor wear expected for a car of this age.
