Fully refinished in Dark Olive Pearl, the final and rarest colour variation, over a refurbished interior and undersealed for continued protection.

Powered by Volvo's Porsche-developed 2.3-litre 20-valve turbocharged five-cylinder engine producing 240bhp, driving through a four-speed automatic transmission. It benefits from a refurbished turbocharger, cambelt replacement, refurbished gearbox, and extensive suspension and braking upgrades.

Other sympathetic improvements include a refurbished turbocharger, upgraded 302mm front brakes with replacement calipers, Bilstein B4 dampers, new silicone intake hoses, ignition components, rear brakes, a replacement front splitter, and new front lighting.

The car has been impressively maintained throughout its life, with a full Volvo main dealer service history up to 131,419 miles, followed by care from independent specialists. It is accompanied by its factory handbooks and an extensive history file documenting restoration and maintenance. The vehicle is offered with an advisory-free MOT.

Interested parties are encouraged to view both the car and its accompanying history file. This increasingly sought-after Volvo 850 T5-R represents an outstanding opportunity to acquire one of the marque's most iconic modern performance saloons.
