1996 Volvo 850 Platinum Edition -Oklahoma-

Post by Arwing »

This is an excellent example Volvo 850 that has been well cared for. I bought the car from the son of a Volvo dealership manger. I have service records dating back to the car's purchase. It has been maintained by the dealership, a Volvo specialist shop as well as routine maintenance by me, a true Volvo enthusiast. It’s had full synthetic oil changes every 3,000 miles. It has 190,000 on the odometer and is in great functional and cosmetic condition for the age. The car is completely stock except for tinted windows and silicone intercooler hoses.

I’ve loved this car so much a bought another one, and now I have too many Volvos so I’m going to let it go. I am willing to travel a reasonable distance for a committed buyer.

Excellent car! Of course I may be a little biased!

Thanks all. Car is SOLD.
Sold it locally. I think I priced it too low, judging by the amount of attention I got. I sold it for what I paid for it though. Couldn't have kept it that nice without help from this forum so thanks again.
