92' 940 td
 
Would anyone be interested in my 940 diesel?

Looking around 1800.

Just secured a new job and my commute has gone from 6 miles to 80 a day!

I would have thought this would have been the perfect commuter car? I use my 940 for a 30 mile a day commute.

Too much fuel its averaging 26mpg. The m46 means it sits at 3k at 70mph

There's something wrong there.

My '90 740td also does 3k at 70mph and has averaged 44mpg over the last 20+thousand miles...

Yes Jim, you took the words right out of my mouth!! I immediately thought of those figures you quoted only last week.

The worst figure I have ever recorded with a D24 was 30mpg - and that was after a few weeks of nothing but stop/start, very short journeys and idling for long periods around town. And that was an auto.

Apart from that horrendous thirst, this example looks like a very nice buy. The indicators, grille and wheels will make it even more appealing to a lot of people as well.

My first diesel was a 940 GLE, again a K-reg with an M46. That was nudging nearly 40mpg with a mix of around town and motorway.

As regards to mpg im working it out roughly but i do have a heavy foot with the exhaust. It sounds so good!

Tic engine is a great match to the 940. Very rare, don’t think many around.

Beautiful car. Are there any issues/corrosion/problems at all? I've never owned a diesel 7/900 but would like to.

Unexciting question, but does it have a towbar?

Rich850R Dec 15th, 2018 05:40

Very interested in this, when was the heater matrix done? Also associated belts and water pump?

Isn't it an arse to change the matrix in any 940, also unsure if volvo can supply a genuine one either

Lovely car though
