Default Volvo 940 Spares or repairs

Having just had my eightieth birthday and a major operation, I have had to accept that I am never going to repair my stock of old cars. In view of this, I'm hoping to have a clearout and just run my C70 Convertible.

I think it would be a shame to scrap them so if anyone is interested, I have for spares or repairs:-

1. 2001 Volvo V70 Torslanda Estate Petrol Auto in dark blue. Reg: Y727CSH. This has been a good reliable car for the past few years but has recently failed the MOT mainly due to emissions which, I'm told, is due to a faulty Oxygen sensor (Lamda) that needs replacing. Other failures are, rear seatbelt, handbrake and headlight/ number plate light bulbs. Failure certificate is available. The only other known problem is that the drivers window only goes half way down. The car starts first time and runs well and is completely driveable but obviously not legal as it stands. No obvious rust

2. 1995 Volvo 940SE Estate Petrol Auto in dark green. Reg: N881KHS This has been standing for a couple of years but has no obvious rust. It was taken off the road when the auto box intermittently refused to change up.(possibly just needed the oil changing) At the time it had just passed the mot but this has now expired. It has heated front seats, sunroof etc, all working when I stopped using it. It has almost new tyres all round and had a new CAT fitted. Nearside front sidelight smashed due to lady driver being in close proximity. Needs battery.

If anyone has any interest in the above, I can give you more information and take some photos, prospective buyers are welcome to have a look. My email address is geoffpay@hotmail.com but please type the heading in block capitals so it doesn't get lost in the junk folder. I am not looking to make a lot from them, any sensible offers will be considered.
Cheers,

Geoff Payne

Hi olliehood,
Possibly do a deal if you want to take it out. Nice alloys with good tyres as well.
