Ain't no way he wants $7k for that

Would be really nice for $2k!

Black wheels predict teen- or twenty-something owner with 95% accuracy. And for that reason, I'm out. Not even $2k.

That's a good point... almost definitely.

But he knows what he has!

What has he got? A car that is an insurance write off? Low mileage but needs 2 x doors.

Looks like many of the P80 ads local to me and in western Canada. Car is perfect apart from the mashed front, blown motor and seized trans. Other than that it is perfect. Asking $5000. 98 S70 T5 with blown head gasket. $3200. Yeh.....

Wonder why nearly all P80's here are still on Facebook Murky Place after many months............?

I miss the days when you could pick up a decent P80 for $500. It's becoming harder and harder by the day.

Serious question -
Does anyone sell anything on CL anymore? Has it all gone to FB marketplace?

Post by **scot850** » 20 Dec 2025, 16:22

Same up here, except CL never really sold anything locally, but we have Kijiji instead, but it is also fading like Autotrader into irrelevance.

I actually prefer Kijiji as at least some of the people don't just waste your time all the time.

You can still find some deals on CL. It's been a while, but I've bought quite a few cars on CL since the FB Marketplace era took over. A lot of older people and people who just don't use FB will still list there. Granted it's few and far between nowadays compared to 15 years ago, but it is still active.

Very tastefully done 240 wagon, no expense spared:

I don't have the pocket change, but this would be it
