Default 1993 Dark Blue 244 (dad needs to sell it)

My dad has a 244 Estate, dark blue, registered 1993.

He is 91 and has to let his Volvo go to a better home.

It starts first time and runs nice. Good clean car.

There are only a few minor rust spots. The fuel level sensor is playing up so will need that doing. The passenger window wont go up with the passenger switch (but will go up with drivers door switch). Mileage odometer is not working but speedo is.

He lives in Stevenage, Herts

anybody interested?

Photos would help a lot- otherwise, mileage? Service history? Current MOT?

Cheers

That’s interesting, how long has he owned the car?

I am new to this site and replies to messages dont go as I need to achieve 30 posts before I can respond.

If you give me an email I can answer specific questions.

I have attached a couple of pics

Odometer is nearly 163K but since stopping he has probably not done more than 20K due to age and health.

Service / MOT's etc have all been done by the same Volvo specialist. Repairs have not been necessary so really its been MOTs.

Its a great car with only a few niggles which we could fix ourselves but hey we dont really have that luxury. Due to COVID mot was delayed and now is needed.

That is one of the cleanest MOT histories that I have seen, 'DaveChalky'. I hope your Father's car finds a good home.
