They are becoming thin on the ground but as I said only collectors would truly want to save these cars.
I would love to own one myself but considering I would want to run it as a classic I would be wanting it pristine and original.Although your lovely car isn't to bad it would cost a fair bit to get it to a show standard which means it would need to be cheap to buy.I really wish you well with selling it to an enthusiast.

Cannnot help but agree Brian.
These facelift 760s are not as attractive (IMO) as the original cars, and saloons less so (I'm talking attractive with regard to buyers).
The facelift 760 was the model that Volvo used to take the product upmarket with the 960.
I think you'd struggle to get much more than £750 if the car was mint with low ownership (2 or 3), low miles (sub 50K) and a rock solid provenance. A person looking for a value for money classic can't go far wrong with an original 744 - these will be the cars to watch out for in a few year's time - if you fancy one buy now.
The OPs car looks like it needs at least his asking price spending on it - tyres, cambelt...etc.
Sorry but I think I'm being realistic.
Good luck regardless.

I think the pre-facelift models are more attractive from a looks aspect as well with their "squashed Lagonda" type styling. The rounded off 940/60 look worked well on the 940/60 cars but looked out of place on the 740/60.
From a buyers point of view, i would think the older ones would be more desirable in as much as they are the shape most people know for the 700 range and more easily identified as such.

No luck Lixah?
Keep at it, ultimately it only needs one buyer. Get it through its MOT as that will carry weight with selling the car. If you need a temporary exhaust for it, i'll take the one off my 940 if it fits!

na still have it. im sort of half hartedly selling, had it on ebay then in a moment of madness removed the auction because i thought i was making a mistake. would really like to keep, but really have no where to store, and could use the money. But yeah, i think i will put in for an MOT, i'll see what advisories come out and then get them sorted. appreciate the offer, will let you know about the exhaust!

thanks, matt.

Good man. Put it in for test. For a fifty odd quid investment, you might be surprised, they are very strong cars as you know and with and a new MOT, you may get closer to what you want for the car.

The sad bit is a lot of buyers won´t see it as an investment but just ¨another car¨ and as such an MoT will make all the difference.

ok she's going in for an MOT today, wish her luck!

[Laird Scooby]

Good luck!! Hope she passes with no advisories!
