A heads up
In case anyone is looking for one there is an ad in a classic car paper for a 1988 740GL auto estate,said to have been owned 10yrs and a new M.o.T. Advertised at £495ono.Got to be worth a look by someone at that price?Car is apparently somewhere in Cheshire.
I will stress I'm in no way connected with this car. |

Have you got a number, or know which particular paper it is in?

The above car is still being advertised for sale-whether still available or not I don't know[it could I suppose have been sold but the advert not cancelled]-this week it's been joined by a 1990 740 saloon said to have fsh,fresh M.o.T. and recent timing belt change with 102,000mls for a firm £850 this one is in Warwickshire. Both cars advertised in Classic Car Weekly £1,000 and under section.Again I have no connection to either vehicle.

Tried looking the cars up online but only got as far as the "Subscribe to CCW" page after reading the blurb all about it.
As i already have Practical Classics on subscription, i've tried CCW a couple of times (same publishers) and haven't been impressed as it seems to have copies of articles i've already seen in PC. However for some people looking at buying/selling a car, it's probably pretty good. Maybe someone who gets CCW could take a pic of the ads in question and post them up in case someone is interested?

I can however say that the following Volvos are advertised (on page 66) inthis week's copy: 1) 1998 960 Auto Saloon in Yorkshire priced at £1200 ono 2) 1998 S40 1.8i in Oxford priced at £3995 (Yes, really!) 3) 1969 164 in Lame (?) priced at £7500 And on page 72 (Under £1000) 4) 1990 740 Saloon in Warwickshire priced at £850 5) 1988 740 Estate in Cheshire priced at £495 ono If any member is seriously interested (please, not just curious) in any of the above cars and do not have access to a copy of CCW, they may pm me and I will give them as much information as there is in the advertisement. Although I subscribe to the paper, which I consider a very good read, I would respectfully point out that it is also widely available at a cover price of just £2.80. Regards, John.
