Will post pics soon but the old girl is dying. Spares or repair if you are inclined.
Has covered 274000 miles. Still looks good, full cream leather, factory dog guard.
Exhaust valve on number 1 is gone so smokey on aceleration. Also vibrates quite a bit until you are up to speed then settles in fine. MoT to October.
May end up breaking for spares.
Has the Nebula style wheels 18" with all recent tyres. 7mm. Had a new dpf at 252k.
Dont really want to scrap it...

Scrapping her would be an absolute SIN! And £750 is too cheap even allowing for the problems she has, have you looked at s/h volvo prices lately?

Exactly my thoughts. I am still hoping someone will have a go at repairing her, my aim was always 300k.
