"The color and angular design of the eighties in neat condition, combined with the rear-wheel-drive Volvo feel on the road. An attractive combination for enthusiasts of the brand."

Description

It was delivered to its first owner in October 1986 by the Volvo dealer AB Verdexa in Malmö. He drove the car for just over two years before trading it back at the same dealership. In February 1989, the current owner’s husband bought the car, drove it, carried out much of the servicing himself, and cared for it meticulously. Since 2013, the car has covered just over 7,000 km. The most recent approved inspection was carried out on 2023-10-09.

Condition

  • Mechanical condition

    That familiar good feeling in engine, gearbox, and chassis. Older budget tires with good tread on nice original rims. The equally fine hubcaps from the winter wheels are stored in the trunk. The previous owner had a tow hitch and self-leveling suspension fitted early on in preparation for caravan adventures, and the latter still seems to work well.

  • Interior condition

    Surprisingly fine, well-kept interior with stylish plush red upholstery, complemented by good door panels and only a slight characteristic vinyl lift on the upper part of the driver’s door. The headliner is intact and clean, and the sunroof needs a little assistance on the right-hand side when opening.

  • Exterior condition

    The car was, and still is, finished in a period-correct all-white paint scheme with a red trim strip and white wheels from its first owner, most likely ordered that way from the dealer. Back then it was referred to as ‘painted down,’ making the car a fine marker of the styling trends of the time.

  • General condition

    A sound 740 in well-kept and representative condition with a cheerful color combination – a worthy representative of the eighties’ white car fashion.

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.
