Default Inherited a 240... Open to ideas

Hi all, new poster to the forum, so apologies if I ask any daft questions. In short, please be nice! :-)

Short version. My mother is 91, and has owned this Volvo (240 SE Manual, 2319cc) from new (1992). Her eyes have gone now though, and she's given up driving, and I've "inherited" it. Its been garaged the entire time, and has just sailed through its MOT - so 12 months MOT on it and (relatively) low mileage (150k). Its in good condition but there are a few faults. Its missing one of the headlight wipers and the driver's electric window doesn't work is what I've found so far.

To be honest although I have a soft spot for the car, both my wife and I have cars and we don't need a third. Equally if we were going to sell it, we need to get top dollar as - to be brutal - the money will go towards mum's care home fees.

Advice and thoughts welcome. If someone could give me any idea on what would be a fair price for it that would be awesome.
