164 at auction
Hi all
Having finally acquired a garage, about 5 months ago, I have since been looking for something to put in it. I'm interested in a few different cars, a 164 very prominently among them. I intend to buy a solid car, which I can enjoy immediately and take to a few events; not a project. I was wondering whether as people with far more experience with and expertise on these cars you might have any thoughts on the following 164, which is coming up for sale at auction on 27 April: https://www.swva.co.uk/classic-car/volvo-164-auto-1972/ The photos and MoT history look promising to me, although in the latter the gap between 2007 and 2016 raises questions about what sort of recommissioning, if any, was carried out. Less than 1000 miles in over 10 years usually isn't the best way to keep thianngs in good shape... I should say that the location of the car and of the auction is about as inconvenient for me as it possibly can be, as I live in sunny Lancaster... However, if the car is worth it then I can start thinking about possible ways forward. I'll be very grateful for your thoughts. |
