That's a nice one. Front seats were swapped in from a 96 or 97 R.

Those look like '95 seats to me. '96-'97 had the alcantara in the center like a '98-2000 V70R.

Negative, no diamond-stitched Alcantara in 96 or 97. I know in part because I swapped 96 seats into my 95. Still have the 95 seats too ...

Here are nice pics from sventastic comparing 96-97 850 R fronts to the 98-00 x70R Alcantara: viewtopic.php?t=86033

And some 95 T-5R seats: https://ozvolvo.org/d/1074-95-t5r-interior-us/15

Right, but those are 95 seats on the yellow T-5R. No diamond stitching on the 850R, but the alcantara is in the center rather than the outside like on the T-5R.

I see it now - you're right, thanks!

You had me second guessing thinking I was missing something

How about this very sad 145 wagon in some yard in Montana?

"Clean title
This vehicle has no significant damage or problems." uh huh...

"YES, I HAVE THE TITLE FOR IT
NO, YOU CANT DRIVE IT ACROSS COUNTRY, AT LEAST NOT NOW.
I started the engine a couple of years ago, I'm sure it will start again with a little starting fluid and a jumper box. You just can't find these anymore so it's worth way more than the asking price in parts. Restore or part out, up to you once you have it out of my yard. I have a forklift to load it on your trailer, or I can deliver anywhere in the lower 48 states for a fee. "

A bold new definition of "significant ".
These days it's worth about $250 by weight.
