One of them things... 3.6.. 225bhp? cant moan for £400~ tax and tested, £146 insurance... you try and stop me!

[volvosneverdie]

[CBA]

[volvosneverdie]

Seems ok, if it doesnt blow up first click then thats a bonus

[CBA]

took a minute to figure out if the link would work... the aim was efficiency.

I suppose the drifters could take a leaf out of my book. stop fooking 300's up!

Immobiliser and alarm, standard fit = secure car.. "disk-lock" = doubly so, wheel clamp.. gearstick clamp.. and one of these --> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HFoUL_bI ... re=related

Lets hope this one doesnt get nicked.. Idealyy i;d want a manual, but it wouldnt really be a jag with manual.. best with auto in jags I think anyway.
At least I can park outside the town hall without getting ticketed

Oh and anyone who's interested theres a LOAD of 7 series volvos down south.. none of them are bad, not one is a no goer.. one needs a clutch release job for about a ton with MOT. needs lacquer on bonnet but thats about it, bargain for someone.

linky no worky

[CBA]

works for me... maybe because the seale is over...
Attach the pics instead me will do so work it will.

having some right trouble with photobuckit.










Ahhh... cut,paste, repeat- a lot.

I do think theres a possibility his camera is just "shit"... not taken them blurry on purpose, that engine bay keeps looks sound to me... might try to enhance that pic a bit..

Impulse buy.. Could be nakkerd, could be a straight motor.. it;s an xj40, sovereign, 3.6 auto, 1989, stated to have NO body damage or scratches, repeatedly stated, I think it went for less than it's money -


If he doesnt cough up the goods for £460 or whatever it was, can I sue him ... I'm worried he let it go for too little and is getting cold feet....... no reply to messages yet, will phone him... fingers crossed.

Looks great for a sub 500 quid car man. Good catch.
Fingers crossed it's healthy and he parts with it.

[valman]

that looks like a very good purchase at that price, some wheels, a hit with the stick and tints for extra mafia points and youre onto a winner

[CBA]

Hmmm... I dont want to modify, not really, but I might.
Maybe lightly restore and get another mot on it... keep hold till it fetches more money - even store it if its good enough.
Its VERY well equipped, it's got everything from A/C to electric seats.. nice slice of capitalism before it [capitalism] dies

[volvosneverdie]

Should just about finish off the planets oil reserves too.

[CBA]

Ha, I;ve heard as little as 18MPG , But I have seen as high as 33MPG... just how you drive it, theyre known for giving some pretty good economy on a long run if properly maintained and the right tyres.. TBH I don't care about economy in this, worth the extra for the comfort alone

Looks like I'l end up paying £500-£550, he was a bit "disappointed" with the price, and has no legal obligation to sell (I checked it out) - so offered an extra ton and whooptidoo, pick it up on friday
