Default 1991 Volvo 240 2.0 GL Auto - 53,000 miles

Now that I've purchased a 940, the time has come to sell the 240.

It's a 1991 240 2.0 GL Auto that has covered 53,000 miles. It is MOT'd until June 22nd 2012 (with no advisories) and taxed for 6 months.

It has power steering, front electric windows and central locking. The sunroof is sealed closed due to a broken spring in the mechanism and there is a slight knock from the exhuast when driving on uneven roads. There is no rust on the bodywork or underneath. The interior is immaculate and all original. Engine is quiet and smooth, as is the gearbox.

The service history is as follows:

First registered 03.07.1991

29.07.1992 - 3560 miles - Broadsword Volvo, Caterham, Surrey
18.05.1993 - 3842 miles - " "
17.05.1995 - 12569 miles - Pinewood Volvo, Caterham, Surrey
17.05.1996 - 15282 miles - " "
15.05.1997 - 18697 miles - " "
24.06.1998 - 22772 miles - " "
24.05.1999 - 25159 miles - " "
22.05.2000 - 27360 miles - " "
09.05.2001 - 29647 miles - " "
16.05.2002 - 31748 miles - " "
07.04.2005 - 37630 miles - D.P Storrier, Old Oxted, Surrey
24.04.2006 - 38272 miles - " "
03.05.2007 - 39435 miles - " "
09.04.2008 - 39917 miles - " "

It has been home serviced since then, with receipts to prove.

Other recent work that has been done includes:

22.12.2009 - Cambelt and tensioners
29.08.2010 - Gearbox fluid, radiator flush and antifreeze
13.10.2010 - Front link arms and bushes

There are also some old MOT's and tax discs.

Costs me £156 per year to insure with Footman James.


Would like £750 ono and a good home if possible.

All seems too quiet regarding my advert. How about some feedback?

I'm think that I'm asking a fair price unlike some of the dealers and dreamers that want £1000 plus.

Any old heap of crap with an MOT, regardless of make and model, is worth £400 at least so I don't think I'm being unresonable given the condition of the car.

Let me know...........

====low mileage-- good

==== saloon --- not so good as estate

==== 2.0 engine -- not so good- prefer 2.3


--------------------------------------------------

price seems reasonable for the car-- I think this ios 1/2 a collectors car
sunday car.


problem might be what people can get otherwise for 750.

perhaps an estate with 120.000 miles????
