"An unusually fine example of a period-typical 740 – a discreet package with just the right features. On the options side, however, they opted for central locking and air conditioning in addition to the standard equipment included in the GL package."

"An unusually fine example of a period-typical 740 – a discreet package with just the right features. On the options side, however, they opted for central locking and air conditioning in addition to the standard equipment included in the GL package."

Description

It started as a company car at an accounting firm in Gothenburg. It was there for a short time, and already in 1992, it was taken over by the wife. Since then, it has been passed down within the family up until today. The car is equipped with A/C, but it has rarely been used. So rarely, in fact, that it hasn’t been converted to the new 134a refrigerant.

Condition

  • Mechanical condition:

    A well-functioning car in all essential aspects, and it feels comfortable and quiet. The engine bay is tidy, with nothing disassembled or modified. The only thing that doesn't work is the air conditioning – which was fairly rare in the 740, and in this case, uniquely hasn't been converted to modern refrigerant. The original spare wheel and tool kit – including the gloves – are still there. The exhaust system was replaced in 2020, and the car has been driven very little since then. Earlier this year, everything related to the front brakes was replaced.

  • Interior condition:

    Overall in good condition with signs of use and some wear on the carpets. The seats and upholstery are in very fine condition. The headliner has been replaced at some point with light blue fabric and fitted with external bows to keep it up. A newer radio unit has been installed, and the instruction manual and code are included for it.

  • Exterior condition:

    Original paintwork that has held up well. There are a few stone chips, scuffs, and some touch-ups. The left rear fender was replaced early in the car’s history after a collision. There's no rust to speak of, just some beginnings around the rear fender edges, but essentially negligible. The hubcaps are very fine and well-maintained with a few marks, and the Volvo emblem has faded slightly over the years.

  • General condition:

    A fine survivor that has been well taken care of over the years.

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.
