For the Original Poster, because the car's been your father's since new & with a provable low mileage, even if the MOT came back with some issues on it, don't despair, post back on here with the failure sheet & I'm sure it'll sell.
Many S40/V40's are now in the "run it on shirt-buttons & don't fix it" price range so a good one with some KNOWN faults shouldn't be hard to sell.
FWIW scrap value from a recognised collector should be around £120 - £150 (I got £135 for my failed MOT S40 last year) so if you can sell it for more than that without the MOT your dad's helping to keep his car "out there" for another few years.
Good luck & come back when you've got more info
Whoops just seen m0eeb's post, who said what I've done. Sorry
