..the 760 will be nothing but a big drain on your pocket. But before you do, what did you say the seller's name and phone number were? :) :) :)

I've only had my '88 745t (183,000 miles) home for a week and a half and I couldn't be more pleased. Mine was also serviced by a Volvo mechanic and while that is no guarantee of anything, I'm glad to have the stamped service book in my possesion. It's a very smooth running engine, and overall the car is a much better ride than my '95 855t. Nowhere near as fast though.

I wouldn't have considered a car with this mileage were it not for the help and information available on this board. The 700/900 FAQ is priceless. I don't have any piston slap or oil leaks, and the radiator, water pump and turbo have been replaced by the previous owner. Also, the A/C has already been converted to R134. I bought it for peanuts and enjoy doing my own work so I think I'm set.

Look at the FAQ (top of the page, pull down "Features" menu) and you'll get an idea of what to look for.

Good luck,

The 760 is exactly the same as the 740. Given that the car you are looking at is a turbo, it is the same basic engine as the 2 litre and 2.3 litre and the 2.3 litre turbo found in the 740's. The main difference between the cars are the optional extras. i.e. electric seat, climate control, etc..
