It's a 1984-89 740 or a 1982-87 760 because of how the windscreen is mounted. However, it has probably had a respray, or at least some modifications: - It should have had wheel arch embellishers if a 760. - The rear view mirror should have been black if a 1988-89 740 GLE. Both should have had a plastic strip along the side at waist level and should have had a VOLVO badge above the side indicator. Are there any other pics available? (interior, rear quarter, front grille, engine) |

Here are the ones from the Facebook page of the Wheels of History: ![[Image: 662576603_122234934212263322_468383768167950218_n.jpg]](http://pics.imcdb.org/22657/26/662576603_122234934212263322_468383768167950218_n.jpg) ![[Image: 666024938_122234934188263322_7454335719420586270_n.jpg]](http://pics.imcdb.org/22657/26/666024938_122234934188263322_7454335719420586270_n.jpg) |

That makes it even worse... It has the 740 GLT, GLT 16 Valve and Turbo egg crate grille which had a black frame originally. However, all those mentioned had 'Black chrome' which this clearly hasn't. I don't know what to believe. |

Luckily the MTSBU has all the answers: YV1704762F2108219 - so a 1985, whatever it is. I guess 704 is a typo and should be 740? |

740 is correct |

Yes 740 instead of 704. Thereafter: - 76 = Engine D 24 T = Volkswagen sourced Diesel engine with Turbo => 740 Turbodiesel. - 2 = M 46 gearbox = 4 speed manual with additional Laycock de Normanville overdrive. - F = 1985. - 2 = Made in Belgium. - 108219 = Serial number Hence a 1985 Volvo 740 Turbdiesel [744] made in Belgium. |

704 is not a typo, it's the standard VIN for 1982-1985 764 and 744. https://platesmania.com/ua/nomer26018330 |
