FOR SALE - 1997 Volvo S90 3litre 204bhp auto
My 1997 Volvo S90 will be going up for sale shortly, and I thought I'd start by testing the waters on here before heading for Ebay and Autotrader.
1997 S90 3litre 204bhp automatic saloon, in Nautic Blue pearlescent with cream leather interior.
The interior is pretty good, very clean, with a little of the characteristic door car wrinkling, but not excessive. The drivers seat is worn around the bolster, all the other seats are in superb condition. The car is pretty much original:
Externally the bodywork is pretty good and it polishes up well, bearing in mind that it is almost 27 years old. The engine ticks over smoothly and drives effortlessly, the gearbox works as it should. There are no obvious fluid leaks and no untoward noises. The car came to me with a fully stamped service book, and I've changed the oil myself each year since then. The car uses no oil between changes. For someone looking for a "usable modern classic" with some scope for improvement this car certainly fits the bill, if you've a taste for a super-smooth 3litre straight six automatic. It will be for sale because I'm starting a new job in a couple of months time which will involve a 60-mile per day commute. I will need to change the S90 for something a little more frugal. I have topped 30mpg on a run, but realistically the car averages around 25mpg in daily use. As a family we could do with an estate car, and so will be looking for a newer V70 or XC70. Price wise, I'll be looking for something around the £1750 mark. Do you think it's saleable, and am I being realistic in my price expectations? Thanks Jack |
