Condition
-
Mechanical condition
The car drives excellently and shifts smoothly. The AC cools without any issues. There is a slight play in the volume on the original stereo. The brakes work excellently but the ABS engages just before the car stops, however no warning light illuminates. The service light is on, indicating that an oil change and new timing belt are due.
-
Interior condition
Original upholstery in very fine condition with minimal signs of use. Has anyone sat in the back seat? Slight wear is present on the driver's seat backrest at the entry point. Original rubber mats are included.
-
Exterior condition
Well-preserved original paintwork with a few minor imperfections. Stone chips on the bonnet, damage from a fallen sign on the right front wing, the lower rear edge of the left rear door has been repaired. Fine original wheels with good tyres.
-
General condition
Swedish young timer in fine and well-preserved condition, a car that today is uncommon in this state.

Facts about the model
The Volvo 850 was presented in 1991 and became one of Volvo's most important launches during the 1990s. It represented a major technological step forward and in many ways replaced the traditional 740/760 series.
The car featured front-wheel drive, a transversely mounted five-cylinder engine and an entirely new rear suspension design, called Delta-link. The engine was a 2.5-litre five-cylinder petrol engine producing approximately 140 hp in base form.
1992 was one of the very first model years, making early examples particularly interesting for collectors. The sedan model came first, while the estate version, the 850 Estate, was presented later.
Technical summary:
Engine: 5-cylinder, 2.5 litre
Power: approximately 140 hp
Drive: front-wheel drive
Gearbox: 5-speed manual or automatic
Body: 4-door sedan
Introduction: 1991
Model year: 1992
The Volvo 850 also formed the basis for the later, more sought-after 850 T-5, T-5R and R variants, and the model also attracted considerable attention through Volvo's commitment to BTCC racing.
A Volvo 850 from 1992 is therefore an early example and can be particularly interesting if it is well-preserved, has low mileage and extensive original specification.

Auction information
General information about the condition of the vehicles .
- At this auction, many vehicles have been included in car collections and have been stored (mothballed) for a long time. For this reason, they are described from a collector's perspective and may need technical reviews and maintenance service - oil, battery replacement, new tires, brake review, etc. - before they can be used. .
- During the auction days information about a vehicle may be updated up to the day before the auction ends. When you bid at the end of the auction period - and also if you have made an earlier bid - we therefore ask you to read the descriptions carefully, in case something has been changed due to new information.
