Cool Wagons (Wagon Lovers Only)

WBC Brackenfell has a really nice Accord Tourer for sale. 2.4 VTEC, yo! Aside from some light road rash on the bumper, it looks to be in great shape with lots of nice goodies (Xenon lights, Lane Keep Assist, Cruise Control, 5-speed Auto box, towbar, sunroof and heated seats). Really a lot of car for less than R120k

Looks nice. It does however have gearbox oil leak and abs error.

And no vtec stickers, but that can be fixed !
 
Lekker morning pic!

I've been driving it for a few days now, running like a well-oiled machine!

Got the keyfob replaced, and all new tyres also fitted.

The aircon is also working now, just needed a regas Luckily.

Because I did not need a new aircon compressor, I decided to use some of spare cash for a stage 1 tune. So she pulls really nice now!

Might do some exhaust work, though I am not sure if my nabourhood will like the sound of straight pipe diesel in the morning :p

Excellent, looks tidy.

If possible please put the sums down for us, what numbers you had to splash out.

Big amounts :P

Car was R26000
Mechanic was R25300
Which included the following:
Major service
Control arms
Outer cv joints
Rear gearbox mounting
Headlight globe
Shock mounting front
Multi V belt tensioner
Front brake discs and pads
Glow plug timer
Front engine mounting

New tyres with aligment was R4100, should just go goodhope tyres from the start, the other places just could not beat the price.

Aircon regas R450

As least she should be good for a while now.
 
Yes please. Costs nothing to look.

The impression I get is that mechanically it’s good, it’s only a few wear and tear things which need work.

Could potentially replace your Audi?
If I had some spare dosh for another car, I would consider it. It looks really decent, although I am not too clued up on Volvo cars. I know they use a system called VIDA/DICE to do programming and diagnostics, similar to VW/Audi's VAGCOM (now called VCDS) system, but I think they are a bit pricier to buy.

I think you would need a good Volvo mechanic nearby for when things go wrong, but overall it seems to be in good nick.
