Vehicle Details
AI Listing Summary
This 1993 Volvo 240 Torslanda is a manual, petrol model with 144,000 miles and a long MOT until July 2026. It has had only four former keepers, with the current owner keeping it for 12 years, indicating consistent ownership.
Despite its age, the car presents well in the photos and video, and the guide price of £1,000-£2,000 suggests it's being sold as a solid, drivable classic rather than a concours restoration project. The sale price of £2,998 indicates strong buyer interest and potentially exceeded expectations.
