Default 1995 850 Turbo Wagon SOLD

Selling my turbo wagon which I've enjoyed for about four years. It's not a perfect car, but a solid runner that has a LOT of life left and needs a little TLC to make exceptional. I would take this car anywhere but don't have the time or motivation to fix the "little things" that pop up with old cars. (Canoe not included). I will add more details and pix to this thread very soon. In the meantime, if interested, please email safsbay at yahoo dot com.

103,500 documented miles on stock engine
Service records back to when car was nearly new
Set of mounted (steel wheels and Volvo hubcaps) SNOW tires included
Thule cross-member roof rack (shown here) included
Turbo "R" wing
Trailer hitch (1.25") with electrical connection
Professionally tinted windows
Interior wood trim in excellent condition
Rear cargo liner
A/C blows cold
Volvo 6-CD rear mounted changer (never did figure out how to use it)
Timing belt changed at 73,000
PA inspected

Things that need attention:
PCV system
Front struts
Tires soon
Front window switch (sticky switch syndrome)

Newer:
Oil cooler lines
Fuel filter
Fuel line from filter to rail
Rear shocks
Rear brakes incl. drums
Interstate battery

Other flaws:
A few minor dings
Gas gauge (sender?) is never right
Fuel pump is not seated right so I only half fill tank to prevent leakage (I might put back factory unit)
Driver seat starting to tear is usual spot
ABS/TRAC light is on...assuming unit no longer works.
Driver door "stopper" removed
Ignition switch squirrelly (needs to be jiggled once in a while)

Also included:
Brand new heater core (which I bought "just in case" when I first bought the car)
Stock, unpainted grille



Asking $1,200 - in Philadelphia suburbs

Price Drop!

Something now draining battery when it sits longer than a day. It's a relatively new Interstate battery.

Engine check codes: 143, 314, 123, 113

Must sell this week. contact direct (not on here) at: safsbay at yahoo dot com

Great car for someone with the Volvo-know-how!

$750

Car is SOLD. Went to a good home....someone who LOVES tinkering with these things and has the time. Both seller and buyer walked away happy. (well, I walked...he drove...)

Enjoyed my time in the Volvo world...will miss those trips to the pick-a-parts....but with an '03 Subaru that has 145k, I'm sure I'll still visit them!

Thank you Robert DIY for the help along the way!

Steve
