Hi folks i never thought it would be so hard to find a V70 t5 manual, ive actively been looking for just over a week and thought it would be easy to source one that's not at the opposite end of the country. I was wrong. I've looked in the normal places i.e. Ebay, Gumtree, Pistonheads, Autotrader and on here but nothing seems to turn up apart from a car that I was going to see in edinburgh on Saturday but it sold last night GUTTED. Can yous recommend somewhere else to look? Cheers all

There's a chap called Seb who owns a Volvo Sales garage in Warrington called SLR Motors - he always gets some gorgeous cars in, normally direct from the main dealers...I don't think you can go wrong with a car from Seb, you just need to act FAST when he gets a car in as they tend to sell very quickly. Not sure if I'm allowed to post a link to his Facebook page BUT here it is: https://www.facebook.com/slr.motors?fref=ts

I'm pretty sure Seb has a mint t5 manual or he did last week. Your finding out how rare these cars are becoming & I'd certainly say they are getting more desirable. I spent 6 months looking for my second one. I gave up at one point so be prepared. In fact I spent 2 months looking for my first & ended up making a hasty decision & buying a money & time pit.
