I'm sorry to say this, but I agree with what has been said. I paid £1200 for my current 940 Torslanda and apart from a few items having to be done, it is an exceptionally nice 2 owner low mileage vehicle. With the interior needing replacement as a minimum, I'd value yours at £500 tops. Yes the 760 Turbos are getting rare, but not that rare to command such a high price for what is essentially a project.
Hopefully someone on here will be able to save it, as I'm also of a view that this car should be saved not scrapped, but your price needs to be more realistic - its certainly worth far more in parts than as a whole in its current condition.

Hi again, no I'm not asking 1200 for the car. I was saying that the generous offer was from someone that was going to part it out and scrap the rest (something my wife was horrified about)
In 2010 we were going to give it up at that offer of 2k for scrap and get a new NEW V70 but he said straight out, "It would go to the fire dept" for practice. We ducked out of the offer for the scrap word was mentioned again. We would love to get what we paid for it but totally unreasonable thought process. What we want is someone to offer our 760 a new home, and for that we would accept reasonable offers for which you have already stated. Lastly, No I am not withholding photos, I am lazy and just haven't got to taking more. The car needs interiors (it isnt good in there) but mechanically it is sound and I even got the turbo and the overdrive to kick in the other day so "All is not lost" Speak soon Kirt

Ah I see, completely misunderstood you sorry!
If I had the space and the spare cash I'd certainly consider it, but I have 4x cars already, 2 of which I've promised the wife-to-be I'll sell asap, so the upcoming wedding would be in serious jeopardy if I took this one on as well I'm sure there are many like minded people about though - if you clarify your asking price and post some pics I'm sure you'll get more interest.

Good to see someone putting their money where their mouth is when it comes to seeing their car go to the right home. I hope it goes to someone who puts time and effort to getting it back to its former glory. |

Hi, We are Now in the market to SELL our lovely family heirloom (Volvo 765 Turbo Intercooler) so... offers again?
We understand all of the needs and requirements this particular car has. The reason we wished it restored is, this was a directors car and it had EVERYTHING on it back then even a cellular phone (still in the car) BUT as it was my mother in laws car and is a "Made in Sweden" version car, its extra-special to us. SO without further ado... For SALE! This care is rated SORN as we cant afford to run three (2 drivers) and I m too young to have the time to do whats needed to it (sadly) it isn't for sale anywhere but here either

addendum
We just wanted to say, this car is now SORN as we cant afford three running vehicles and storage isn't an option. The 760 passed its last MOT so it was running before we switched it off late last year (November I think)
Also I'm too young to have the time to restore it as I begrudgingly still have to work and retirement is too far away to hold on until... so we are sadly forced to sell. We also want it to go where it will be loved (either as a whole, or for it's parts) We are considering ALL reasonable offers too Thanks for looking Kal

4 star ! now theres a proper car. Does it have hardened valve seats ? Some lead-replacement additive might be a good idea.
