Default Any good 940 2.3 turbos for sale

So I have had two 940s in the last two months, both with a fair few issues. Both described as mint, both bought from opposite ends of the country 400 miles away from me.

So the first one that was ‘mint’ had lacker peal on the roof, several little dents all over. Cracked and dull rear lights, a water pump leak, the overdrive didn’t work, ripped rear seats, 1 black door card, all the rest grey. So I fixed the water pump, a couple of second hand clear rear lights, some second hand matching good rear seats, all belts changed and a full service, including antifreeze charge and flush which mysteriously cured the overdrive problem.

Now the latest, has a vibrating noise (see other post) some light surface rust underneath, the sump plug has been welded up, looking through the history in 2011, it’s got service receipts since, so I’m guessing oil must have been sucked out, the indicator is not fixed to the headlight, aircon nackered, again several small dents. I have this one to tidy up now!

But I really want to find one that’s very good condition, and not a stupid price. I am probably with all I have done and what I have spent and got back at about £1400 so far. I just wish I had gone straight in ad spent £1800 and got something better. If such a thing exists? Anyone know of anything? Are there still really good examples around?
