Re: 1996 850R - Worth buying with damage?

Well, the transmission on the car is an automatic (which I need to appease my wife - the last car I bought is a manual which she doesn't want to learn). I didn't hear back from the seller, so I am guessing that he sold it to the local person who was coming by to see it yesterday.

Re: 1996 850R - Worth buying with damage?

I also forgot to mention that the seller says that the brakes and rotors need replacing because the ABS light has been triggered. He didn't indicate if that was a recent thing that happened since he's owned it, or if it was something that was there from when he bought it. Either way, that's an addit...

Re: 1996 850R - Worth buying with damage?

That's kind of what I figured is that the asking price was a tad optimistic. I do have to say that there's just something that draws me in to the sharper angles of the 850 over the V70. But on the flipside the car that erikv11 just put a picture up is definitely tempting due to it's proximity to whe...

Re: 1996 850R - Worth buying with damage?

The odometer is listed in miles, so 116,000 miles, not kilometers. The title is listed as being clean, and the seller stated that a Carfax report shows no accidents and all maintenance history up until last year (which is when I assume the previous owner hit the deer and then sold the vehicle to the...

1996 850R - Worth buying with damage?

I am looking at getting a 1996 850R that has some minor cosmetic deer damage to the front end and was wondering what would be a reasonable price for the car? The seller has recent service documents that indicate the work done on the car (timing belt, tensioners, water pump, right front hub, right fr...
