Description
For sale
Would love to see her go to a new home and be driven again.
1990 1986cc Volvo 740 GL(Petrol) blue interior
Finally listing my first car (Brick) for sale.
Those who know me probably remember this car quite well. I've since bought something else so now she's sadly needing to find a new home.
Odometer says 36k miles, definitely done more.... Odometer stopped working at the time of my father's purchase. Estimated mileage between 150k and 200K.
Structurally sound, and in fair condition. Generally good condition for age (35 years) some signs of age and damage as to be expected. I've pictured most but viewing recommended. Minor damage NS front and rear NS panel.
So good points:
Mot valid until 5 June 2025
Seat Upholstery in good condition
Original Radio
Did start and drive just fine but been sitting on drive for 10 months.
Has drove me all around the country last year proving to be reliable and comfortable.
Recent work completed on car: new handbrake cable, clutch, brake pads, rear disc, etc. (see photos for list of works since 2006). last full service 30/01/2024.
Always a good convo starter and comments everywhere you go Used occasionally to tow a small Cheval horse trailer (1800kg limit).
Less good / character points shall we say
Steering is stiff to start off but them becomes fine, suspect new steering rack needed in due course.
Speedo decides to work occasionally when it feels like it but then just for a moment (plug in cigarette lighter heads up display speed travelling).
Fuel gauge has a mind of its own, not to be trusted, top up regularly and you're fine. Five litre plastic fuel can in back for emergencies included.
Boot does not stay open by itself - struts in place but not effective, trusty stick included in sale, does the trick.
New exhaust required, an original unused mid section included in sale.
Not perfect condition, some plastic cracked needs new fuel door, there's a dent rear ns left panel, best to come and take a look see for yourself.
Feel free to call my father to discuss 07470 768576
