I sold one which was cat-c, it was fairly tidy but needed a wheel bearing a couple of months back for about 1k...... hard to compare but totally clean ones are selling (or not!) for less than 2k. ( http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/2000-Volvo-C70...item414b1ccea9 )

No way is it worth 1800.... I would expect a working one for that money...... people are a bit scared of electrical type faults as well, would probably be easier to sell if it was fixed first?

Might be worth spending the £200 to get a better asking price??

I would probably take the £950 as it is, then again I always seem to end up selling my cars for 200 - 300 less than I paid.... so maybe you should hold out for £1250 or so.

No wonder our cars are worth peanuts, people don’t like putting there hands in there pockets to pay for what was a 30K + car I know its old now but what the hell would you get for that money in Norway, a pair of running shows I would think.

True............ The c70 is a well kept secret I think, for less than 2k you can get a tidy one, parked up on the driveway with a personal number plate they still look like a very expensive car...... they have aged very well compared to the classic V/S70 IMHO

Thing is if you can afford the running costs then you can probably afford the more expensive car anyway!
