Default Best websites for finding a new 940?

Hi All,

I'm on the lookout for a new 940 and I can't seem to find that many for sale. I'm looking for a 97/98 2.3 turbo with under 100,000 miles so I'm being a bit picky. Apart from on here, Autotrader and Ebay, can anyone recommend any other sites that might be useful?

Thanks,
Rick

The mileage will make it harder. Higher miles wont be a problem if you get the right car

Just the usual places, maybe free ads papers, various newspapers, gumtree etc etc.

I remember a few months back I was over Cambridge direction and drove past a place that literally had dozens of Volvos. I assume it was a breakers of some sort, but could be places scattered all over.

The place in question is probably the breakers / repairers / sales site adjacent to the A1 and A428 (I think ?).

It's been there for years and if that's the place then, yes, they do sell 940's etc, rather than just new'uns.

Google it and you will come up with a load of dealers with one in. But get through a few pages at least.
