Default Goodbye v40

After a pre MOT look over , I have decided my car is not viable to put through the test again , it's a 2002 v40 1.9d sport . It has covered 142000 miles and still pulls like a train . If it is of any use to anyone it will be sold as spares or repairs , and if the scrap value is covered , I will be happy to see it go to a volvo owner rather than crushed. Located in RG9. ( south oxon)

What's wrong with the car? When is the MOT due? Do you have any photos you could post. Also, you mention scrap value, for the price. How much were you offered or thinking of?

Hi Gatos , my local garage have given her a look over , not an Mot ( which expires the end of August. It needs welding to the floor stiffeners just forward of the rear wheels , a steering rack gaiter, perished ball joint gaiters , a windscreen , rusty fuel pipes etc. The nearside front wing has some rust to the arch , discs are worn , air con pump is sized but the belt now by passes it. It has been a great workhorse , regularly serviced etc , but is not a viable repairer for me , sad after seven years of brilliant service , never let me down , has had a clutch and dmf ! Silver coloured , scruffy front spoiler £150 would buy it
