Default Volvo 765 Turbo Intercooler Estate sale

We have a cherished family heirloom for sale.
It has seen better days but is still mechanically sound and water tight.

We don't want to see this car scrapped (fire dept practice tool) and such, so are putting this up for sale to those who would love to make her their classic beauty.

Pictures to follow

Posting this to see if there is any interest... many thanks
Kirt & Lisa

Currently we own 3
1. 1989 - 765 Turbo intercooler Estate,
2. 1997 2.5 V70
3. 2005 2.4 Turbo XC70

Hi again,
It's an F reg White Volvo 760(765) Turbo Intercooler with an old 4STAR petrol engine pre-catalytic converter
Auto Gearbox
The turbo is failing
The AC works but there is a leak so it hasn't been used in about 7yrs
It has 209k+ original miles
it was fitted with a factory mobile phone (still in car)
Stereo no longer works
Sunroof needs new motor
Driver wing mirror working but needs repair (new glass)
Full winter pack with wipers on the headlamps
All alloys including the spare
it's an old car that has been slowly let go to our newer cars but still drives lovely and is very comfortable for our dogs and other "rough" duties.
It has 200k miles on the interior as well :O
Oh and it has a fully functioning tow bar but we have never towed (the previous owner (1) did tow, which is why we replaced the rear suspension at about 150k miles
We use Tesco 99 octane petrol just fine
VIN starts with YV1765865k0027***
Current MOT and Tax and yes it drives lovely

I'm still awaiting Xzibit and the gang to come round and "Pimp my Ride" but I don't think that will happen somehow haha




I have no price in mind except that it would be nice to think it was still worth more to someone than just scrap (Volvo Dealers)
The car is currently residing in the South of England

I really hope I can sell something to buy this!! I assume it is MOT'd and can be driven home? EDIT: Just seen it is!!

If I can interest you in a deal with a 206SW or a S60 Bi-Fuel get in touch!!

NINut, let me know if you proceed and if I can assist in some way with collection. I work in London every other weekend and could get a train down to sussex and drive it to Bangor if it helped you.
