Default 460 volvo available

We have an all original volvo 1995 460 2.0si. We are only the second keepers of this car, it has full service history and has genuine mileage of only 127873. Everything works on the vehicle with the one exception of the drivers heated seat. This car has all round electric windows, air con, electic mirrors, PAS,alloys, volvo radio cassette, volvo tow bar, a recent set of tyres and a recent exhaust.

The vehicle currently has no MOT or road tax as it has been garaged since August 2011, bu is run on a weekly basis.

Genuine reason for sale. company car and space required.

Looks like this is not unusual for mainland Europe, 400 series.
You can find here other even more expensive 440/460/480: autoscout24

You wont believe some of the prices in europe.

Actually in france they ask for really silly money (lots) for a really ****e car.
In England you get a really good car for very little money.

This is why I import cars into france (currently 3 volvos imported). It works out far cheaper, including picking the car up in England, than buying the same spec car here. I've done the same for 2 motorbikes (though they are not volvo's ;-)

I'm actually thinking there might be some money in this. Lets see eh? (I'll put my s40 and the jag on the market to see what I can get. Bet its a lot more than I've bought them for (300 quid each)...)

Got a [slightly] better shot of my car wearing its OSCAM Vegas below:



Took it to Santa Pod yesterday. Ran a best of 16.8 secs @ 79.6 mph.



I think the shocks may need replacing, though.

Got 320 miles out of a tank, that was there and back including a trip to Liverpool to pick my mate up and two runs down the strip.

Top laugh - I beat an 8V Golf GTI Mk 2, too.
