1997 Volvo 960 Executive
***NO RESERVE*** Executive-specification offered from long-term use and reliable mileage

Chassis No. – YV1965956V1041489

M.O.T. – NO

Odometer – 120,000

Presented in dark metallic green and shown to good effect in the accompanying photographs, this 1997 example displays the unmistakable stature and formality associated with the Executive specification. The long, straight bonnet line, broad grille and substantial estate body contribute to the model’s dignified presence, while the interior, finished in light leather with electrically adjustable seating, reflects the comfort-led approach characteristic of the marque’s flagship of the period.

The vendor informs us the motor car is offered with Registration P621 MEW and shows 120,000 miles at the time of cataloguing. Discovered stored in a garage, it is now offered as a project for spares or repair, having sadly failed an M.O.T. in May 2025. The cabin exhibits the expected patina of age but remains complete, featuring the model’s signature wood trim, clear instrumentation and capacious load space. The exterior presents honestly, with evidence of use visible in the images but still retaining the solidity for which these cars are widely respected.

Introduced as the pinnacle of the manufacturer’s rear wheel drive platform, the 960 Executive represented the height of the brand’s refinement in the 1990s. Powered by a smooth six-cylinder engine and engineered for long-distance comfort, it combined understated luxury with the robustness and safety ethos synonymous with the marque. Estate versions in particular offered exceptional practicality, earning a loyal following among those who valued substance and reliability above all.
