That's a dream car right there.
Up for sale is my classic 1990 Volvo 740 Turbo wagon with 65k miles. Yes, this Volvo incredibly and surprisingly has 65k original miles. The Volvo sat for a long time, hence the miles being low. I originally bought the Volvo from CA and brought her back to WA.
The Volvo is mechanically sound, it runs and drives great with no issues. I recently had all brake rotors, pads, and calipers replaced. I also gave it a fresh oil change. Currently the Volvo is ready for your next road trip. Super smooth on the freeway and fun to drive a classic iconic Swedish Brick Wagon.
Being 33yrs old, the Volvo does come with some minor cosmetic imperfections. The hood and roof have paint oxidation from the CA sun. There is also 2 minor spots of surface rust on the body. Also some of the interior plastics and passenger seat is sun faded. But overall, the Volvo is super clean and straight for the age.
Summary Specs:
- 65k miles
- Automatic
- Clean WA title
- No Accidents
If interested or have questions, please contact me Dan at 425-220-169 nine. No interested in low ball offers or wasting of my time. Looking to sell this Volvo to someone who appreciates classic Swedish automobiles. Please keep in mind, collector plates will be removed upon sale.

That looks like a nice car with a seller who knows his stuff. I would go into that without hesitation. Later M56 P2s are rare.Mike98 wrote: ↑30 Mar 2023, 18:34 2005 V70 NA M56 in North Carolina:

The outside, with exception to the LH front bumper mount, looks really good for the age and mileage. I don't think I have ever seem a manual trans in a P2 with exception of the 'spaceball' in the manual 'R's. I also have never seen the heating system in that car. Looks almost like the old MCC in the P80's! I also like the cloth seats. Again never seen those on a P2 either!
I have seen a few P2's for sale up hear running well with 250-300k+ miles on them that have been taken care of.
I'd say the price is a bit steep for the mileage, but it would be worth a good look and test drive.

Yup, most P2s came pretty loaded with options, so MCC, cloth interior, and M56 were fairly rare. It is priced a bit high, though.scot850 wrote: ↑30 Mar 2023, 23:15 The outside, with exception to the LH front bumper mount, looks really good for the age and mileage.
