Default 940 GLE Turbo Estate £400ono

I had a buyer for this but the sale fell through so here she is up for grabs

Full leather interior is in very good condition without rips or tears
5x Alloy wheels + 1 steel spare
Towbar
Sunroof
Power steering
Genuine Volvo Dog Guard
Genuine Volvo Stereo
Recently had a low mileage turbo fitted as the old turbo was tired.
MOT - 02/2011

Bad points:
Laquer peel on the bonnet.
The A/C does not seem to cut in (might need recharging)
There is a wear patch in the carpet on the drivers side
Missing rear wiper Motor
An exhaust stud on the manifold has snapped though does not leak at all.
Tax has expired (On SORN)

Overall this has been a really good car and should continue to give many miles of happy motoring. Very comfortable to drive and will cruise happily all day. You are more than welcome to take it for a test drive.

PM me or call O7763 65696O

Based in Chichester (West Sussex)

I will add pictures soon.

This car needs to go pretty soonish so I have reduced the price to £300firm.

Sorry no offers though I think you'll all agree this is a fair price.

Here are some piccies:

I can't believe there's no interest in this.

I really need to sell the 940 so I can keep the 240 on the road (MOT time)

What am I doing wrong here. lol
Maybe some better pictures will help.

I'm not sure when the belt was last done though on inspection looks okay.
The snapped stud wont cause an issue at all as the exhaust does not leak and is very solid.
No rust or bad dents (the odd parking ding but please bare in mind it's a 17yo car and I'm only asking £300 lol.
It's the 2.0 Turbo and is very smooth. :-)

Cheers,
Mat

Not bad at all surprisingly, driving economically (60-70mph) on a long run I was getting around 32mpg. I only used the car on weekends though as I ride a bike to work :-)

As sugested here are some better pictures (well as good as I could get in the rain)



























Hopefully these paint a better picture of the condition of the car.

@ s.hammond
city driving won't be an issue, you just need to keep off the loud pedal and save that turbo whistle for the open road :P
