The one I helped with cost just over EUR 10K. First class condition. I posted pics of this on the forum a couple of months ago (not to sell, just to show).

A clean, nice example (almost no work to be done) can be found for about £5-10K. One that needs sorting out about £1-4K.

Most of the older ones still about in Sweden are in A1 condition and do cost an arm and a leg. Much higher used car prices in Sweden than in the UK for any Volvo.

These spares could fill a 3 or 4 containers.These are as a result of running a Volvo restoration workshop for 35 years. These are however located in Durban,South Africa and needs a buyer as I am now located in London. If you have people looking o interested, my number is 078 2887 9494. Still driving my 123GT, PV544 and P1800E here. Ta, Kassie
