1998 Volvo S90 Limousine Volvo factory built limousine Blue/gray , 6cyl, automatic , 485k , all rebuilt at 275k, runs and drives great , everything works as it should, inspected 2/20 negotiable, new rotors, pads and calipers all around & second set of wheels with winter tires.

----------------
Pros: Factory conversion
Cons: 485K
Pros: complete rebuild
Cons: rebuild was done 200K ago
Pros: one of a kind??
Pros: at 485K it has nicer door cards than my 1999 s70

To me the conversion makes it look like a 60's/70's soviet era car.

I liked the 960 and S90 Executives. They were a plusher car with a slightly longer body. Drove beautifully and quiet too. Never seen them in NA though only in Europe.

$7900 with close to 500k miles?

Yeah, priced pretty high. Also a lot of miles for a Volvo limo, I'm surprised it's actually been driven that much!

I wonder if that was imported. I never knew they were sold here.

Special order only. The Executive were only inches longer. That limousine looks feet longer. There was quite a increase in price. It seems to me for a even bigger upcharge it came armored, unless I'm remembering that from the S80 Executive option sheet. June

Not too far away, if only I had a trailer and a whole bunch of extra time ...

Where are all these non-running platinums coming from? There was a wagon somewhere in NC last week, don't know if it's still for sale. I think I saw it posted over on Turbobricks in the orphan thread.

Manual v70r in Boston

Finally, a reasonably priced M66 V70R! That would probably be worth fixing up.

Post by **scot850** » 31 Jul 2020, 23:08

I disagree. Looks like it has had it ass thrashed. The interior is filthy as are the wheels. There are no pictures of the seats and interior and probably for a good reason. Those codes and axles could be big money if related to the active suspension.

At half the price it may be worth a chance, but is the interior is trashed walk away.
