Default Seeking 940

Hi All,

I'm looking for a 940 estate with fairly low mileage (approx. 100k), in good overall cosmetic condition and working order. Can anyone recommend where to find one? My searches on gumtree and ebay over the last couple of weeks are leading to fairly expensive options.

Thanks in advance.

Hi. Really don't worry about buying a cheaper higher mileage example provided it's had regular oil changes. Mine is a 1996 and done just over 200,000 and still goes well. Bought at 175,000 for £250 over 2 years ago. No regrets.

The thing is consider if you bought a tidy looked after 100k one for 3k, you could drive it for another 10 years. They are durable and reliable. Go for a 2.3 litre. Top spec was CD trim.

James.

Have you considered that “barn find” that crusty coupe started a thread about.
