Volvo Findings! (What have you found on FB/Craiglist/Kijiii/other)?

[abscate]

Saw this shared over on Turbobricks, 300k+ mile flash green wagon. It didn't sell, probably because people get so worked up over mileage. Probably the cheapest flash green around, these things go for stupid money.

Didn’t sell? $6500 and needs a cat, a RMS JOB, and probably 4x4C?

Who wudda thunk?

Right? Lol
I don't know why people think they're worth so much. I get it to an extent, but not every P2R is worth 5 digits (or even high 4 digits). It's definitely more reasonably priced than others though.

This one won't last long....

2012 Volvo S60 T5 Sedan

Mileage:157,702 (As of 6/25/21)

Car History:
Wife is the original owner of the car. It has never been wrecked, it’s paid for with title in hand, and has only had three repairs ever of it:
1) a fuel pressure sensor.
2) mass air flow sensor (still have original)
3) Positive Crankcase Ventilation Housing

Notice: Replaced MAF sensor myself thinking that was what threw numbers off. It ended up being PCV housing which I left service station handle. In the process of replacing the PCV housing, they noted the variance in pressure had forced some oil in the engine onto timing belt and the seals may one day need to be replaced, but felt this likely corrected issue.

All repairs needed have been performed by Swedish Imports in Durham, NC and I have records of each.

You’re more than welcome to test drive. Selling as is. Car routinely selling at dealers and private listings for 10-12K. Vin number listed for car verification. All pictures shown were taken this morning. Dashboard photo shows car on at idle.

I know used car prices have gone up but really ??

Maybe we should have Abscate check with the guy to see if he has misplaced a comma...

'72 1800E on Hemmings, with some extra special, undisclosed ingredient in the paint.
And, of course, it's an 'original barn find'.

Not a very rare one, but a good deal. Unfortunately these are becoming harder to find in this price range... people are fixing them up and throwing them up for sale at insane prices.

I was more curious about the third row seat. I'm with you, though, the late-stage rear drive cars are aging out of the herd.

Another good looking turbo 850 wagon, and there's a V70 and a Bertone in the background to see too:
