1996 Volvo 850 GL 5-speed manual, 100k miles, $2,200

Post by **findude** » 06 Dec 2009, 15:23

I am the original owner of this car. See posts by findude in the 850 forum if you want to read about my experiences. I am not prepared to do the work this car requires at this time; it will make a great driveable project for the 850 fan who wants an interesting specimen. The car is located in ZIP Code 22101 (McLean, Virginia) which is right outside Washington DC.

There is a wealth of details about this car at http://members.cox.net/1996volvo850/ (you need the whole URL, from the "h" to the "/". I believe in disclosure; you'll find plenty on that web page along with my contact information.

I'm ready to sell this car, and will entertain serious offers from buyers who show me they are prepared to close a deal.

AH MAN!!! I HATE YOU!!! haha jk, 100k is nothing for these cars.
To bad its a 5-speed.

Hey I might not have 2k, but if you ever decide to part it out hit me up! Ill take a few parts!!!
1996 850 glt auto at 242k miles! ITS EVEN THE SAME COLORS! lol

I ran thru your post over at the site, Man that is a sharp car, I wish my seats looked like that! Front seats are starting to rip from the years/miles. more options than mine too! If I had the money, id take it just to replace most of the parts in my car and add the options I dont have!

GL on the sale, should have no problem.

New price. I'm ready to sell this car. Mention that you saw the ad here on matthewsvolvosite.com, and I'll throw in both extra sets of wheels as well as a Volvo roof rack that holds two bikes.

All yours for $1,750.
