I have found a late 1994 940 Estate - as far as I can tell, it has the D24tic engine.
It's a November 1994 reg. I'm guessing, since I've seen the engine and it has an intercooler, that it is the d24tic. First owner had it for 5 years, next owner had it for 8 years. At the moment it's not running, probably due to the pump. The bodywork looks good, interior is nice. On the downside, it hasn't been running for a few months, but it did have a full service by an independent Volvo mechanic prior to being laid up. It also has 243000 miles on it, which is rather a lot. It belongs to a guy whom I think I can trust, having had him do plenty of work on both my 960 and my wife's s40, and I think if he thought it was a lemon then he'd tell me.
The spec is SE. Will this have Nivomats on the rear, as I put new Nivos on my 960 just 18 months ago and I'd swap them if I could. It also has a rather nasty stereo. I'd like to be able to swap the stereo out of my 960, which is ace, but I don't know if they're the same size, same connectors, etc. Will need to have a look at that.
It's a manual 5 speed as far as I could tell.
And a strange/daft question to finish with. I have a recently replaced battery in my 960, as well as a brand new boxed radiator for it that hasn't yet been fitted. Would I be able to use either of these in the 940?
Thanks for any help you can give.
