Default Volvo 850r

I have "Pamela Carson" for sale. She is a 850r, 5 speed, wagon. I don't really want to sell her but I am driving 100 miles a day to work and back so i need a hyper-mileage car. Thinking a VW golf tdi or a 325i but I digress.

Cons:
Headliner is coming down(easy fix)
Very small oil leak at turbo seal(1 quart per 3000 miles)
Rear springs need replaced
300,000 miles and counting
Can't get the dam readiness monitors to cooperate

Pros:
Slotted rotors and ceramic pads
New struts front and rear
Full tune up less than 3000 miles ago
CLEAN flametrap
New ECM
5 speed transmission
New radiator
New intercooler hoses (blue and pretty)
Seats 7!
Trailer hitch and wiring harness installed
Very small amount of rust (passenger rear door small patch)
No need to name the car


Asking 3000$ since I bought the car for that. I've put about 3000$ more into it this far. Located near St. Louis

Can someone tell me how to post pictures? HTML format always makes me go cross eyed.

Let me know if you are interested or have any more questions.

Location = near St. Louis and pictures I will have to take tomorrow. Can't figure out how to post them on here yet. But I can email them or text them to you.

Default posting pics...

Try this: when creating a post, click "Go Advanced" at the bottom

you should then see the paper clip icon or the insert image. If you want to grab a pick off your PC, use the paper clip "Attachments" feature. Click, select "choose file" and follow the process. If your pics are online, you can use the Insert Image feature and place the URL that points to the picture.

Here's a pic from my Google+ on how to align those pesky gen1 S40 strut mounts... This was done using the URL to Google+ (shared to the public) using the "insert image" icon.
