1996 Volvo 960 CD 24v Estate for sale.

GrandadRob · Feb 21st, 2018, 18:30

After much agonising, I have decided to put my beloved Volvo up for sale.
It is a 1996 960 2.9 Litre 24v, CD Estate, in Blue. This car starts first time, and drives like a dream, so much silent power.
The recorded mileage on the clock is 96,400. Backed up by many MOT certificates. I have had this vehicle since 2002, and has NEVER failed an MOT. It has always lived in a garage under a cloth, often not used for months at a time. The bodywork has no dents or scrapes and has no rust whatsover.
It has the full leather in cream with matching trim, all in excellent condition.
Everything works as it should, with two exceptions.
1) The sunroof will tilt, but not slide.
2) The heated seats stopped working a few months ago, both at the same time, I was thinking possibly a fuse or relay, haven't checked it out yet.
The tyres are all in good condition. The cambelt etc has been changed at the correct times/mileage. There are no oil leaks at all. New rear silencer about a year ago. It does not use any oil at all, or make any kind of smoke.
It is due for a new MOT at the end of March, I will put a new MOT on this vehicle as a part of any sales deal.
This is an excellent example of a future classic.
The price of this piece of history in the making is £2,250.

Circumstances have changed overnight (long story) I have decided to reduce the asking price from £2,250 to £1,750 o.n.o.

Hi Rob,

I'm interested in your 960, however I seem unable to send a PM to you (not enough posts apparently). could you PM a contact number and I would be happy to give you a call. Thank you.
