My Daughter's 850 NA Sedan automatic is up for sale. approximately 200k mi. Car is silver and the body is in average condition dings and small dents. It appears to have a burnt valve - no compression ( as in 0) on one cylinder. Otherwise complete. I had planned on repairing but don't want to go through that and other stuff keeps making me put it off. It would be a good mechanic's special for someone who is willing to do the work, or a good parts car for someone with the space. The cars is drivable, in fact it appears to have burnt the valve when she was on a trip to Akron, Ohio. The independant volvo mechanic she took it to diagnosed the lack of compression. We researched the problem and had him disconnect the injector to the bad cyclinder and she drove it back to Tennessee on four cylinders (about 500 miles). It probably needs a valve job at the least or another engine. I am pretty confidant it can be driven a reasonable distance of few hundred miles as is and I can possible help with that some. The AC is still cold. I just replaced the ignition swich before her trip and some other stuff has also been replaced. All the glass and marker lights are intact. It has the grey cloth interior. We are asking $600 or make an offer. If you have any questions I will answer what I can at 865-803 7964 or email [email protected]
