Somebody shook the 1800 tree again. I linked the ES over on the BaT threaad earlier; it had sold on that site a few months ago for something like $26k, and now it's passing through the hands of a dealer. Not sure that technique will work.

2004 Volvo XC70 AWD Wagon - $2,500, 143,500 miles
https://raleigh.craigslist.org/cto/d/ap ... 55632.html

Recently detected leak in the sunroof (not operable) is causing water to pool on driver side only after heavy rain. AC and Heat broken. Interior seats are semi-damaged.
Power seats, power windows, stereo all function. Clean and clear title.
One owner, all routine maintenance done at certified Volvo dealerships. Car sat outside and not driven since March ‘20. Recently cleaned and purchases brand new battery. Selling as-is. Runs great.

Looks like it should have the "Biohazard" warning over mold issues. I've never been a fan of cutting a hole in the roof of a perfectly good car.

'08 XC90 V8 in Richmond
https://richmond.craigslist.org/cto/d/g ... 41843.html
Looks pretty clean, seems to be a bit under market - maybe it's the miles ?

My first thought was having to remove the interior and cleaning! Do have an OZONE machine but who wants to go through all that work.

Personally, I think the sunroof introduces flex, less rigidity when needed besides not safe and a mess if something breaks it. Thought they were cool in the late 70's. Never used it when I had one. Too much noise and sun beating in regardless how it's designed.

I hate sunroofs for many reasons... funny enough, I only have 1 car in my whole collection that doesn't have one.

Why put a metal lid on top of a roadster, though! Leave a hole so you can get the small arms fire out easily!

Until recent acquisitions of Shaggkira and Evita, the only car in the fleet that didn’t have a sunroof was the manly New Beetle...
