Default Need to sell my 940s asap

well after arriving home and finding a letter telling me I'm going to lose my flat I need to sell my Volvo 940s
it has mot until January 15 and tax until november 14
it's an excellent runner and comes with loads of history and receipts ( 99% of it on volvo headed paper)
it does have a few faults but these are mostly cosmetic.
the rear lights have tape on them and there is a piece of chrome trim missing from the front bumper
the only thing I've found mechanically wrong with it is the rear brakes need new discs and pads and the system needs bleeding.
its an excellent car and interior is in awesome condition

pictures are on my thread here
http://www.volvoforums.org.uk/showthread.php?t=209985

I'm located in Birmingham ( 5 mins from Junction 7 of M6

ideally I'd like 600 for it so I can keep my flat but I'm open to sensible offers

It really is the ideal car for sleeping in ... not to make light of the situation but seriously consider it a "caravan" of sorts for as many homeless nights as you need.
Ours is very comfy!

that defeats the object...if I could afford a caravan then I would be able to afford to keep the flat.

still for sale by the way

For anyone interested ...

Whilst I'm sympathetic towards anyone in difficulties, it doesn't seem right trying to turn a profit off members on here when the root cause appears to be regretting recently buying a car at auction.

Thanks Forrest I too am sympathetic towards people with difficulties having previously been there myself but trying to take good people for a ride just isn't on.
