Default 99 S80 T6 - For Sale CHEAP!

I have a 99 S80 T6 that I bought 3 months ago. It seemed to be a great car until two weeks ago, when it went into limp mode with no OBD codes. From the posts I've read here, it sounds like a possible TPS cleaning or replacement is called for but the dealer wants $300 just to look at it. I just can't afford dealer service and this car seems to be more than my technical and repair skills can handle. Other than limp mode, it is mechanically sound and has under 100K miles. The headliner could use some cosmetic work and the R/F fender has some minor damage from the previous owner. I've had older Volvo's that were great to drive and easy to work on but I'm out of my league with this model. The car is located in Northern Maryland, has clean title, and can be driven if you don't mind 20MPH. MY MISTAKE AND LOSS IS SOMEONE ELSE'S GAIN, SO MAKE ME AN OFFER IF INTERESTED!

Default Sure, I can always decline or hold out for best offer.

How about a trade for a 02 Kawasaki ZX-12R Book is $6200?

Just post a price and be done......everybody knows here what the car is really worth. S80's (especially the T6's) were not Volvo's finest hour.

Thanks Matty, I wasn't naive enough to expect a high value offer for it but it appears I'm the only one here who doesn't know "what the car is really worth", so didn't see the problem with my "make an offer" approach either. I appreciate your trade offer and would like to chew on it for a few days if you don't mind? I already have 4 bikes in the garage but the ZX also sounds like it could be an interesting deal. If I decide it might work for me, I'll get back with you. Thanks again!

I see these 1999-2000 S80's in the local salvage yards with near perfect bodies but the engines are usually bad and they typically need a new turbo or catalytic converter. I am amazed at what nice cars they are and the fact that they were probably purchased just for the metal value ($300). It's such a waste.
