Yeah, that's not a bad deal. The only drawback is that it's an AW55. An M66 would be preferred!

Nice, sloughs of those up here well under $1k.

I picked up a full set of black winter Volvo mats the other day from an 85 year old man who looked just like Colonel Sanders. New in box, never been used! $40.

The seats should be interchangeable between most/all XC90s, I don't know the electrical differences though, if applicable. Fortunately they're plentiful at junkyards!

The owner gave the wrong VIN and huge dependency in mileage. Fender color in Photo 1, 2 and 4 is of concern. Friend just sold his Maxima to CarMax in the San Jose area. They lowered the initial offer of $1,200 to $900 because the first Estimator did not check the MVR at DMV for accidents. Carfax showed a no accident car.

CARFAX calculates the average mileage of the vehicle, based on make, model, fuel type and vehicle age.
It would be great if it was base more on reported mileage from title transfers and service records.

Yeah, Carfax mileage "estimates" are usually inaccurate. You'd have to see the actual report to get better info on mileage. It's not a turbo, the LPTs never came with a manual. Fender color looks fine, just a dent in that LR door. Any discrepancy is likely from the shadows.
