For the love of all the angels, angles and protractors, someone, save this. Quickly. It's a free 745 Turbo.

Help keep MVS on the web -> click sponsors' links here on MVS when you buy from them.

Also -> Amazon link
. Click that when you go to buy something on Amazon and MVS gets a cut!

Just saw your post on FB a little bit ago, I didn't realize she was giving it away! Definitely good for parts. I really want to find a 740 or 940 turbo wagon.

That is 240 prices but have to say it is in great shape except for the drivers' seat base cover.

Those are really nice cars and mileage isn't too high for a red block.

I see a lot of older Volvos up here for sale with silly prices ($4000 + ) and the seller says great condition and then you see seats that are trashed and various lists of work needed like leaky valve stem seals. At that point they are $1000 at most in my book as if they have those issues what else is wrong?

The world is full of chancers and good luck to them.

One of them "great condition for age" which is meaningless.
Condition is an issue completely separated from age and mileage. Two totally different subjects.

Fair asking price for what looks like a nice, well kept 850. I love the last pic with the mulch!
