Ebay: 2.0 S M652 SUD

Cleaned up the garage, found parts laying around, but it turned out to be a complete Volvo 480? If you want to sell your car (480 only) you can place an advert here.

Linky

Jiff's summary:
No interior shots.
"One minor fault only - mileometer needs replacing" - and has need it doing since 2015...
"Always been garaged" - Even photo'd outside a garage! It won't, of course, physically FIT in that garage, and the rear lights tell a different tale...
"MOT til Dec 2021 - has always flown through" Except in 2006, 2007, 2011, 2012, 2014, 2015, 2018 2019 and 2021.....

result: Smells like a wannabe dealer to me.

It is a nice colour, and they do polish up well. If the seller really has owned it for the past 15 years as they claim, I would guess there would be a decent pile of invoices / bills to pore over.

The MOT history isn't too bad, and the mileage doesn't seem to have been excessive at any point.
