"The car was driven 60 km to our depot without any issues and has just received a new inspection, valid until 2026-08-31. It is also road tax exempt. The car starts up immediately and runs and drives well, with no issues in the motor, gearbox, or brakes. However, it is uncertain when the last cam belt was changed, and the odometer has stopped working. The last recorded mileage in 2022 was 255,340 km, and it now reads 275,512 km. The car will need some bodywork repairs, and the headliner is loose."

Description

This car was bought new from the Volvo dealer in Kinna in 1989 and has remained with the same owner ever since. The service history is stamped up until 80,000 km, after which the owner’s friend handled the service work. The car has been inspected regularly, with the last online inspection record from 2013 showing a mileage of 235,552 km, indicating it has been driven sparingly over the past 11 years. It comes with the original handbook, service book, and a few older inspection reports.

Condition

  • Mechanical condition:

    The car starts right up and runs smoothly, thanks to its dependable B230F engine, although the exhaust does have a slight blow. The automatic transmission shifts effortlessly, and the brakes are in good condition. I recommend replacing the cam belt and water pump, as their last replacement is unknown. The vehicle is equipped with steel wheels, scuffed hubcaps, and older tires, along with an additional set of older winter tires (without rims).

  • Interior condition:

    Interior is clean and fresh, with well-preserved seats both front and rear. The dashboard is undamaged, and the instrumentation is in good condition, although the odometer has stopped working. The headliner will need replacing.

  • Exterior condition:

    Bodywork is straight but shows rust around all four wheel arches and a few blisters on the rear door edges. However, these were not flagged by the inspection center. The underbody is generally clean but has a few blisters around the front floor area (see pictures). The paintwork is clean with a few small, normal marks, and would look great with a polish.

Auction information

General information about the condition of the vehicles .
  • At this auction, many vehicles have been included in car collections and have been stored (mothballed) for a long time. For this reason, they are described from a collector's perspective and may need technical reviews and maintenance service - oil, battery replacement, new tires, brake review, etc. - before they can be used. .
  • 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.
Important to know before placing your bids!
  • Once you have called in an item and the reservation price is reached we want you to deposit the entire purchase amount into our client funds account before retrieval can take place.
  • When you need to retrieve a called in object we want you to examine it carefully. If you consider that the item does not match our description you do not need to complete the purchase. In this case the deposited purchase sum and the entry fee are refunded.
  • If you do not examine the item on the spot the call charge will be debited, but you do not have to complete the deal.
  • If you make the entire purchase exclusively at a distance you have 14 days to cancel, but must return the item at your own expense.
  • Your shipping costs and other costs are not reimbursed when the right of withdrawal is exercised. Swedish court applies.
