Well, props to the guy for finishing what was probably his vision of the ultimate 240. It would stand out on the showground.
I doubt he had any intention of selling the car until his health problems showed up.
I think to a greater or lesser extent we all try to build our own dream car version. However, we all tend to have different dreams.

You are probably right, the seller probably had every intention of keeping his perfect motor car - until the medical issues started. I wish the seller well of course, but the chances of finding a buyer happy to shell out 17 grand on another person’s vision may be small.

Oh that is lovely!!! if i had an empty garage and £6000 i'd be very very interested. My earliest Volvo memory is of one of these, same colour, same year, owned by the neighbouring farmers wife (actually she was a dressage instructor so a bit posher than a farmers wife!)..
