JohnK Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 Selling my 740 - I bought it in January to lug some stuff around then lent to my mate as a family hack/dog lugger whilst we got his E34 Touring back on the road. It's now surplus to requirements and clogging his driveway up.MOT - July250k but with pretty much a full history.It's not in bad nick, bit of rust on NSF arch, and OSR light lense needs changing.Drives really well, needs a clean up inside and headlining is missing (backing board still there).Clutch is high but doesn't slip.Has a load of spare keys, really good tyres all round. I was going to use it for shitefest as transport come accommodation but I'm going to tent it and take the RobT 440 instead.£250 covers what it owes me.Seats are mint under seat coversHistory confirms OMGHGF was repaired at 194k catsinthewelder and RobT 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cms206 Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 Can someone shout me on facebook when this has sold to let me know when it's safe to log back in? I've given the missus my bank card in case I get any ideas. GLWTS theorganist, JohnK, CortinaDave and 6 others 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cms206 Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 On Friday night I'll have four Volvo estates. If that four becomes five I will be a fucking dead man. Unless there's a raffle.

bub2006 Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 Seems very cheap seeing prices online lately. I would be considering if it was an auto too. Mpg might be a bit much for me too. Glws Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sierraman Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 When I move house this would be handy for shifting all my crap to wherever I end up next. I'm going to put the phone down now before I start agreeing to getting on a bus to Tyneside to purchase a 25 year old Volvo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone loves a raffle. (Still a no from me... ) If your missus sees this when you inevitably buy it this week, claim she is seeing double vision, then have her admitted to hospital immediately for a few months, and then buy more Volvo's. cms206 and eddyramrod 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CortinaDave Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 If your missus sees it and gives you earache for even thinking about it you may as well buy it You're going to get face melting pus either way so sod it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnK Posted April 29, 2015 Author Share Posted April 29, 2015 Ha! Just got it home, think I might get a couple of final tip runs out of it before it goes... Will be sticking on eBay over the next few days as well, at a higher price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Bell Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 Its already on ebay. At a fair price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnK Posted April 29, 2015 Author Share Posted April 29, 2015 Yeah just listed it. I think £395 or best offer is acceptable. £250 (fixed) still stands on here though which I think is fair enough. No doubt eBay tossers will dick me about and I will have to go all Mike Tyson and forcibly remove them from anywhere near it when I lose my rag with them. Will lob it in for MOT if it doesn't sell and just keep it. I'm sure I can find a use for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
