Hello,

Sweet Roll, our 1996 850 GLT Sedan will soon be 20 years old. We were hoping she would last our life times but we have been eating right and exercising and short of a catastrophic event we may out live her. Her AC no longer works as is true of her speedometer and odometer. The drivers side seat is starting to tear and sag and she was in a fender bender a few years ago (right front). She has new timing and serpentine belts and has had a complete tune up as well as a new control arm. The steering rack leaks a drop or two but never seems to get low on fluid. The cruise control does not work. She has around 85000 miles on her, taking in to consideration that the odometer and speedometer recently started working sporadically. Everything else works fine and she has more than half of the tread left on all four of her tires (she was aligned last year). She is garage kept but the clear coat on the hood has chipped away and she also has multiple scratches to numerous to mention. Please give an opinion as to Sweet Rolls' value?

Thanks
