Closer, but pretty outrageous. He's pricing it like an R, which that is very much not.

That said, I'd rather have this than an R anyway. Much nicer non-spaceball shifter!

That 240 is much more reasonably priced than this pile of crap that was posted on FB the other day. Flat tires, sinking into the ground, non runner, broken window... $3,500 :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

It looks straight, Good Atlantic blue color has a low pressure turbo (I think) and it’s in an area where absolutely everyone has a Volvo who wants one. I’m too far away or I’d pay the guy $600 tomorrow! Somebody go rescue this wagon! :)

Looking for a V90 to be my next Volvo, at the very least a T5.

2017 XC90 Inscription - My best Volvo by far, but Ex-wife departed & I had to sell. 😕
2001 S80 T6 - rebuilt trans, head gasket, fixed & sold
1997 V70 - kid car, sold
1996 850 GLT - found under bridge, 2 year refurb project, commuter car, kid car, T-Boned - SIPS saved passenger. Totaled.
1997 VW GTI VR6 - exceedingly fast.
1971 VW Type II/231 - it was pointed out by management that the children would be killed in it.

Shame about the color mismatch from behind the RHR door, but otherwise looks like a well maintained car. $8500 CDN (a bit over $6000 US) for a car with about 125,000 miles.
