#94 of 97 Re: 2005 XC90 V8 73k miles [qbrozen] by cla2021 Aug 12, 2009 (6:05 am)
Replying to: qbrozen (Aug 11, 2009 5:25 pm) The engine was replaced recently with a used V8 with 53,000 miles. It was not replaced at 20,000 miles with a new engine. I believe it was replaced because of an oil leak that drained the engine & blew it. I wouldn't consider buying it were it not for the fact that the engine was replaced by a friend who works at the dealership. He knows Volvo's well and I trust his judgment. It's also got roughly 30,000miles left on the warranty, which bring some peace of mind.   I'm more concerned about the overall selling price & the relatively high miles. Considering the replaced engine, reselling it would be difficult. I've seen similarly equipped V8's in my area for over $20k, but most have fewer miles and, of course, original engine.   Thanks.

Replying to: cla2021 (Aug 12, 2009 6:05 am) Ah, well, it is good that you know all of that. As you said, it helps YOUR peace of mind. I would make sure I get solid documentation on all of that and never lose it.   Would prefer they had replaced with a new engine, however.   As far as value ... well, I don't know if volvomax watches this thread, so try asking on the Real-World Trade-in Values thread.

Found a 2005 xc90 v8 AWD rear entertainment, Navigation, basically all options even running boards. Metalic Silver 31,000 miles. Is 20,000 a good price? New tires and brakes too. Replies to this message: qbrozen (Sep 02, 2009 6:53 pm)

Replying to: my2005xc90 (Sep 02, 2009 5:21 pm) Wow. Low miles.   If CPO, that's a great price.   If not, its a fair price for both parties. Just make sure it has no accident history.
