That is a lounge spec car too, not a 6 door funeral car. I would love to get my hands on an S90 with lounge spec.

I am the current owner of this former nice Volvo, but I do not use it at all so I am looking to sell it.
Who could be interested in buying this rare Volvo limo?

Sure it is a lounge spec? Probably made by Nilsson in Sweden...

I rented a Volvo limo (basically a Honecker Volvo) for a few days last year. Isn't the longest one, but with lots of space in the rear:





Although it wasn't that fun to drive... A/C didn't work (in Summer!!!) and the rear axle (rigid! Not multilink!) was dreadfully hopeless with keeping the car calm at higher speeds!

Thankyou daim thats a very nice limo.The interior has been done very well.I also like the wheels but I imagine they take a lot of work to keep them clean.

Any chance of some pictures please as I have a 940 Limo and enjoy seeing all the variants.

I need more pictures as I'm volvo crazy.
