I do like the front end of the SD1, it must have looked even more menacing when they first came out.

I am selling this on behalf of a friend who has moved abroad and has no further use for the car.

The MOT has lapsed - hence the "spares or repair"

I wonder if this has just been sitting on someones drive and only needs an MOT with nothing actually needing to be done to it.

I should have checked the MOT history before saying that!

 

Parking brake: efficiency below requirements (3.7.B.7)

front registration plate deteriorated (6.3.1d)

nearside front Headlamp not working on dipped beam (1.7.5a)

Parking brake lever has no reserve travel (3.1.6b)

Exhaust emissions carbon monoxide content after 2nd fast idle excessive (7.3.D.3)

Exhaust emissions Lambda reading after 2nd fast idle outside specified limits (7.3.D.3)

nearside Windscreen wiper does not clear the windscreen effectively (8.2.2)

nearside rear parking brake recording little or no effort (3.7.B.6a)

offside Front position lamp(s) not working (1.1.A.3b)

nearside front Direction indicator not working (1.4.A.2c)

offside front Direction indicator not working (1.4.A.2c)

offside Headlamp aim beam image obviously incorrect (1.8.A.1b)

nearside front Brake pad(s) less than 1.5 mm thick (3.5.1g)

Apart from the usual shit Volvo handbrake issue, the rest doesn't look that bad. Emissions depends on how far out it is - may just need a good drive. Or just a new cat/O2 sensor. Or its fucked.

 

It's cool because it's a modern volvo but still has tiny little wipers for the lights. None of this pop-up high pressure jet rubbish.

Totally!

 

I've always wanted one of these, or the equivalent Chevy/Pontiac.

 

"The Cadillac of minivans" as Elmore Leonard wrote in Get Shorty.

That looks ace for the money. Shame it's not MOT'd though.

 

It's not far from me either...

This looks cheap for one of these.

Think you might have time to go and look at it for me?  Just in case I suddenly found some cash down the back of the sofa, you know... ;)

That's bugger all failures on that Porka .... 7 years ago.

I'm sure that could be done! No idea how we'd get it up to you though without MOT? Unless you just pre book an MOT and go for it?

I 'might' be able to store it for a little while too, since there's a space on the drive as my Capri is away being rebuilt.

It looks pretty minging inside tbh but other than that appears ok in the pics. It's up to you...

Someone on my course at uni had a tuned 9000. Pulling nearly 400bhp. Absolutely mentally insane. Required a massive steering wheel fight when he floored it, to keep it going in a straight line.

It had done 240k when he started fiddling with it. By 255k he lost 3rd. By 258k he lost 2nd. Pretty much on the dot at 260k the gearbox died.

20k miles on a 240k mile gearbox with double the normal hp I would call that a win...

Logistics is something we could look at later.  What concerns me more is, would it be viable for someone with no time/space to take on a project?  A trusted pair of eyes going over it would be very helpful.

As for the interior, I've had worse.  Much worse!

I do like a Cavalier TD, this one needs some repairs for the MOT test.

 

 

Oh. :(

That's a Corsa B diesel donor car...

nice, i'm sure this was big derek's car, 

$_57.JPG

if so, then it is up for sale again, and with another £1000 put on the asking price....

$_57.JPG

it certainly looks like dereks, and if it is, then i can tell you that it is as immaculate as it looks. in fact it is probably better than it was when new.
