History and additional information

This 1998 Volvo V70 R is a manual‑transmission performance wagon originally purchased in Luxembourg and later imported to Sweden around 2004.


According to the seller, the car arrived in Estonia in March 2025 and has since undergone extensive mechanical and cosmetic work. Major work completed since June 2025 includes replacement of the front shocks, springs, top mounts, control arms and tie rod ends. The steering rack has been rebuilt and paired with a new power‑steering pump. The original turbocharger has been rebuilt, and all vacuum and related leaks have been eliminated.


Additional work includes a new water pump, timing belt and thermostat, along with new spark plugs, rotor, distributor cap and a new propshaft. The electrical system has been sorted, the radio mainboard replaced and upgraded with Bluetooth integration, and both the battery and battery hold‑down renewed. The interior has been restored to approximately 95% condition, and new Pirelli summer tyres have been fitted.


The seller notes that the price is open to discussion with a serious buyer. All signs suggest the mileage is correct, and the car has passed inspection cleanly with zero notes.
