The 960 has a straight 6, not a V6.
I bought a 1997 V90 Lux 3.0 from another member on here for £900 earlier this year. A bit higher mileage but with a longish MOT, excellent paint and bodywork and not really in need of anything too much although I’ve been doing a bit of a rolling restoration on it. As such I think this one is overpriced.
Things that would specifically concern me are:
Looks quite rusty on the inner wing above the battery tray
Looks like it’s been filled with red (possibly OAT) coolant
The MOT has highlighted widespread rust
The engine bay looks unloved
The bodywork repairs - respray bonnet and replace wing could prove expensive
The shock absorbers needed replacing early on according to the MOT - hard life?
Doesn’t look like the cover over the spark plugs and coils has been off in a while
The outside of the allegedly newish serpentine belt looks very polished
There’s something weird in the boot floor near the handle
Personally, if I were interested, my target price would be less than I paid for my V90. Not more.
Good luck if you decide to go for it.
