This is a very old photo of my project car. It's the only photo I have! The car is now slightly less dented but a little more rusty. Sporting Aries alloys, new grille badge, mudflaps, door mouldings, and blue headlamp trims which I painted this weekend. I miss my old steel wheels! I'll try to get a new photo when the car is back on the road soon. I was 3 when I had my first ride in this car.

The Volvo is still alive and kicking and being used semi-regularly, and is in pretty good order despite being 20 years old and having done almost 200,000 miles; it passed its 17th MOT a fortnight ago:
I regularly see at least five other 740s of various types and model years pottering around in the Volvograd area, most of which are lasting pretty well, despite seemingly being in the hands of non-enthusiasts

Our 740 in Penzance earlier this year...
I have submitted an article for Driver which I'm hoping will be in the August issue but briefly, this is our '88 740 which we acquired in Nov '07 for the princely sum of £130 (plus 10% commission, £143). At the time the odo read 250-ish k; it sails through MOTs, regularly returns 32+ mpg on runs and has now covered approx 270k miles. What a nice car! C.A. |
