Descripción
For (reluctant) sale is my gorgeous 1989 Volvo 740 GL Auto Saloon in Volvo Signal Red.
One previous owner from new.
The elderly gentleman that bought the car kept an incredible history file with the car, including original sales receipt and a photocopy of the actual cheque he paid for the car with! Full service history from new, incredibly low mileage at 72k. The owner since 1989 has kept a FULL history file organised in a bespoke Volvo folder. It includes all the purchase documents, newsletter cutting about THE salesman that sold him the car, a copy of the cheque he paid for the car in full with, a Volvo dealer questionnaire filled in about why he bought that car, and every service/ parts care invoice since new.
The owner, a one Dennis Simmons from Haywards Heath, was 89years old last month (April 2019) when he had his driving licence taken away due to I'll health. The poor old man physically cried when his pride and joy of 30yrs had to be sold... reason alone that I would like the new owner to carry on its care. He even put, at some time in the last 12yrs, a diecast model of the very car on the rear window shelf... he was that proud of his pride and joy retirement present to himself in 1989.
Immaculate interior condition, always kept garaged (same garage, infact) since 1989. The headlining which famously ALWAYS perishes on these is in perfect unmarked and unholed condition, due to it being kept out of the sun and in the garage from new.
Drives completely as new, very tight and quiet. Body and paintwork is exceptional, a few small parking dings and marks due to the owner being of gentle age and parking her in a small garage, but these do not detract from the cars appearance. Brand new MOT until late April 2020. everything works as it should. The pictures don't do this show worthy old girl justice, shes gorgeous.
Very restricted space forces this unwelcome sale. I want this car to go to a good home who will keep it garaged (for the headlining's sake) and take good care of it. £3950 or respectful offer. No part-ex or swaps, so please don't ask.
Lots more HD photos upon reqest. A comprehensive walk-round video is on Youtube here: - details above or by searching "1989 Volvo 740 GL Saloon automatic" in Youtube.
