I’ve always wanted a 960 wagon, I’ve had my eye on this car for a long time, and after talking to the owner recently he decided it was time to find a new home for it, we agreed on a deal and I got a lift down to Mornington to pick it up, I drove it back to Ballarat, taking the ferry from Sorrento to Queenscliff.
Its a 1996 960, 417 metallic blue with dark grey interior, B6034 and 4sp auto. Its an SE which means it has a glass sunroof, premium audio with CD player, CD stacker, leather steering wheel, woodgrain, and power seats.
The previous owner had taken very good care of it, but it definitely needs some attention. The front suspension is the main issue, it needs strut tops and shocks. It also needs a few bushes in the back, and an oil leak from the PCV fixed.
I plan to use this as my daily, and occasionally a tow car. Over the next few weeks I need to sort out all the suspension issues, and do some basic mods.
