dangerous brain Posted March 16, 2008 Share Posted March 16, 2008 I have for sale a 1997 2.3 litre high pressure turbo auto RWD estate 940 volvo. Its grey/silver in colour and has the 7 seat optional seats in the back. Obviously its no sports car but it is surprisingly quick. Its never missed a beat since I've had it. Only thing I have needed is an exhaust which I completely replaced including cat and I put two new falkens on the back. It has a full volvo service history to 100k miles and has 113k on it now and I replaced the oil and oil filter and air filter myself when I bought it with 105k on it. Speaking to the guru's on the volvo forum they say the car is registered by volvo UK group and explains the relatively low miles and virtually full Volvo service history. Its a nice spec with aircon that works, heated front seats that work, cruise control that works, an electric tilt and slide sunroof, electric front and back windows, electric heated and operated mirrors, electric drivers seat with 3 memory positions, radio cassette player thats actually not too bad at all, roof rails, factory fit fold down from roof dog guard, factory fit alarm immobiliser, remote central locking with 3 key fobs. Original owners handbook and leather bound case is present as well. Obviously I have the V5 as well. For those that like to mod a bit replacing the injectors with bigger ones from ebay (much cheapness) and upping the boost pushes it very cheaply past 200 horses relatively hassle free. RWD is a hoot on this motor as well Its not too heavy on juice giving me around 23-24 mpg and the insurance is only a couple of ton for me, it'll crack a ton no problems. Pictures now posted. Its MOT'd until the end of October and tax is 10/08 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dangerous brain Posted March 21, 2008 Author Share Posted March 21, 2008 Quick bump on this as I am more prone to selling this one than the rangey. Its by far the best run around I have ever had but I just don't think the rangey will sell and I need to clear an insurance space for my aristo.

dangerous brain Posted March 22, 2008 Author Share Posted March 22, 2008 I'm in porton which is near salisbury. I cocked up with the price I meant £1200 but will take bottom line £1100. If I advertise locally It would go in first week in my area because they take about £1400 for similar miles and condition in local rag. I thought I would offer it here first as there are so many people that need reliable other cars and this one has been. Don't suppose you'd like my other less than reliable motor would you lol??? To be honest selling this one won't be any great shakes and to be even more honest I would rather see the rangey off before I sell this one. Thats the main reason I haven't advertised this car in the local rag. Pictures wise I can sort that out next week. I am out for a special weekend away with the mrs til Sunday night so won't have access to the pc with the pics on. If you are serious about it I can drop you a call if you PM me a number.
