That looks absolutely stunning, a gorgeous colour and much want from me, GLWTS! Is it a turbo? Couldn't see from the engine shot.

I'm sure it'a turbo. You can tell because in picture 6 there's an intercooler pipe from the throttle body to the front of the engine bay.
Another way to check on those ebay listings when it's not immediately apparent, is the non turbo cars tend to have the ABS unit on the offside of the engine bay, whereas turbos have theirs on the nearside, due to the positioning of the air filter housing.

Lovely car, prices on the up? I bought my 940 lpt with 33k miles on it, and sold it with 45k or so for £1500. I considered it best original car in country...wonder what it's worth now...?

There seems to be a lot of 940's about for big money. Funnily enough none of them have sold yet............

Of course it's worth it!

What else would £3.5K buy you these days? A worn-out Polo or a knackered Astra?

Good luck with the sale - hope you get your money!
