Default 1995 Volvo 850 breaking

I have reluctantly decided to break my 850.
Engine is a 2.0 s model.
MOT ran out in April this year and she has simply sat under cover since then just being started up weekly......not getting used.
She is a gold automatic estate with beige cloth interior.
A 1 owner car from new when i bought it 2 years ago,runs very well and mileage bragging rights of a genuine 422k miles.
Good body panels with only the usual rust along top of tailgate below the glass.
Not sure why i am rambling on here...maybe hoping someone might buy the car as a whole even though she is worth more in parts.....sadly.
I have not uploaded any pictures as of yet as i am breaking her.
Please PM me with any questions and i will reply asap or alternatively call me on 07957 859200.
Based in Essex

John

Hello John, I presume the whole interior is beige?
