Disclaimer: I don't know the owner, the car, or anything else beyond what you see in the CL ad. I'm sharing this simply because it appears to be a nice 850 R.
"Clean 850R for sale by second owner. 2.3L Turbo pushing 240hp. This is the perfect car for a Volvo enthusiast or a high school student, alike. It's safe and will run forever, plus it's quick, quick, quick! Power everything, killer stereo, front and rear spoilers, sunroof, suade and leather interior. 17inch sport rims including a full size spare! Tires still have lots of tread. There is a cover on the dash board and a liner in the trunk. Top of the line Volvo. This car cost around $40,000 in 1997. Everything works! I've only had her worked on by Volvo professionals, it just passed emmisions, plus I've kept this car posh because it was my dream car since I was 15. I honestly never saw myself getting rid of it but, alas, I need the money. There are a few minor dings and some of the paint is chipping on the top but I mean, this car is almost 18 years old, it's looking pretty good for it's age. I flew to Arizona to buy this car from the original owner, an old doctor, in 2010. It had 73,000 miles on it then and I'd been putting about 10,000 a year since then. The odometer stopped working a little over a year ago at 93,000 miles so you'll have to take my word that it's probably at about 105 thousand. I do have records that prove that I'd been putting on about 10,000 a year though if that helps. I might go a little lower on the price because I'm practical and I realize that that raises eyebrows. "
