And if ever there was a car that goes on for ever, then it's the 700/900 series. And the diesel versions go even further! I'm sure we will help you find something lol!! But not with 50k on the clock!! You be very lucky to find anything with less than double that. The lowest mileage one I know of is my father's 95 940 TD with 75k. No, it's not for sale because he loves it and he even says it will still be going long after he's gone lol!! And if it was for sale, I'd be first in the queue!! |

Im actually mulling over the possibility of buying the aforementioned red estate with nasty wheel trims and a long term loss of coolant problem with the view of possible rebuilding the engine at some point anyway. Only problem being, if the head turns out to be cracked. Where the hell im going to get another head/engine ! Taaa will vg |

Well. Im really not having much luck with this hunt.
I had found one. She was a beauty, located in swindon, i found the day it came on ebay. It was perfect. Dark green, lowest mileage one i had seen at 109k was going to come with a full mot and the guy i was buying it off didnt quite realise that the diesel ones are extremely rare. Therefore under priced it at 900 quid. He got it as a package of three p/x cars. So im jumping up and down, contacted him on the Thursday, was picking it up today (Saturday) There was a bit of confusion with the mot status on his part but no problem, he was mot'ing it that day (thursday) I had even named it. Huldra (nordic female folklore character). So i went to sleep thursday night propperly exited. I had found my baby. http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item...305480&alt=web Then it got bad... i woke up to this... Screenshot_2015-10-23-07-34-01.jpg 20151022_233532.jpg Needless to say. I was gutted. I have never had a car stolen. But i kind of know how it feels now and i dont wish it on anyone. Some b***ards had stolen it from outside his house at 11pm that night. Then what looks like the corner of someones house jumped infront of them. Being a volvo im suprised the house is still up... Typically if he had taken it for its mot it would have been at the mot station overnight. But they couldnt fit it in that day. The search continues. And there is one less 940 diesel estate around. He scrapped it the next day. Im so bloody gutted. |

Really sorry to hear that story, especially if you had your heart set on the car. It could have been worse I guess if it had been stolen from you instead after you had paid for it!!
In the meantime, for those of you who are after a manual: https://www.gumtree.com/p/volvo/volv...tax/1139996461 Unfortunately, only one photo so no way of telling if it's any good. |
