	Model: 940s estate, manual 2.3 lpt. Year: 1995 Mileage: 168,000 MOT: 1 Years MOT Location: Tilbury, Essex, RM18 Price: £450 ono Contact: Steve, 07585594586 Hi peeps, bought this a while ago after placing a wanted add, it has now done its job and it is now up for sale as with 5 cars I have no reason to keep it. (850 saloon for sale too!) I purchased said vehicle to use as a daily, transport a Discovery chassis's to the breakers and to tow a car from Brighton (which never actually happened) It has near full service history and a nice clean interior where everything works. The car runs and drives lovely, no obvious faults other then some dents and scrapes here and there. Fitted with a tow-bar (obviously) front electric windows and a built in booster seat it's perfect for throwing the family in with a boot full of curse word whilst towing a trailer full of even more curse word, Or weld the diff, crank the boost and hit a lamp post sideways (safely!) Minus the jokes its actually a nice car with years of life left in it, photo's are now here! Any questions or to view please call me on the number above. It will do you proud!

	Potentially interested in this. Odd question, but have you got any idea what the GVW and unladen weights are? I'm on the crappy newer license with the 3500kg GVW limit...

	Hi, it weighs 1430kg unloaded (I was on a weigh bridge recently and it's the same weight as a Focus ST!) and the max braked towing weight is 1500kg (Volvo figures) So loaded sensibly (see below...) with a tank of fuel and 1500kg strapped on the back your looking at around 3200/3300kg. Not that I'm proud of it but my last work-horse 740 (non-turbo) estate had a train weight on the scales of 4125kg after a clear out at my workshop. It was loaded up with Disco axles/chassis in the back (in bits) and a 3 axle Ifor Williams trailer with a Smiley Transit full of scrap metal hitched on the back. It drove so well that I didn't believe it at first, but when I drove back on the scales un-loaded it come up as 1550kg with the trailer. I nearly cacked my pants!!!

	I was wondering if it was black so checked online and it is. I've already got one and fancy a matching pair. I don't think I am going to be allowed though !

	Hi, just to answer Tom, the lowest I would take is £425. Pay-day-delay happens to me too!

	I can hope it's still up by the time payday arrives! Does it use any oil? Also I presume it runs on all 4 cylinders? A feature mine no longer has!
