Description
The current owner knew the previous keeper personally and purchased the car last year. Since then, it has been fully serviced, fitted with a new cambelt, and had the lower sections beneath both doors repainted due to a few minor paint blisters and stone chips.
Always garage stored and clearly cherished throughout its life, the car still presents beautifully today with no known rust issues or accident damage. Any Volvo enthusiast will love this car – these old 740s are built like tanks and have a reputation for just keeping going and going.

Technical data
Condition
-
Mechanical condition
Easy to start with a little choke and the engine runs smoothly. On the road it feels solid and dependable, with stable handling, a slick five-speed gearbox, and good brakes. Fitted with spoke alloy wheels and good tyres, inspected until 2028-05-31, fully serviced, and ready to drive home.
-
Interior condition
Interior is very clean, tidy, and original, complete with the desirable factory sunroof. The cloth seats are in good condition, with only a minor repair to the driver's bolster that is barely noticeable. The door cards, trim panels, carpets, and headliner all present well. The dashboard is undamaged and retains its original instrumentation, which functions correctly. The radio works but would benefit from being refitted more securely.
-
Exterior condition
A super nice-looking Volvo with straight and well-aligned bodywork, showing no notable dents or visible rust issues. Some older repair work can be seen around the inner edges of the doors. The underbody is exceptionally clean and tidy with no signs of accident damage or standout corrosion. The paintwork is bright and glossy throughout, and both lower sections beneath the door mouldings have recently been repainted to a high standard due to a few minor paint blisters and stone chips.
-
General condition
A great-looking Volvo 740 GL with a substantial history file and plenty of recent service work completed. A well-cared-for, honest example that any Volvo enthusiast would be proud to own and enjoy for many years to come.

- During the auction days information about a vehicle may be updated up to the day before the auction ends. When you bid at the end of the auction period - and also if you have made an earlier bid - we therefore ask you to read the descriptions carefully, in case something has been changed due to new information.
