'95 850 turbo, now with just over 165,000 on the clock.Some service records. They guy we bought it from bought it from auction two months before we bought it. It is from New Jersey, still has the speed pass for the toll road. A law firm bought it brand new, the owners manual is filled out with original owner and selling dealer.
Needs some TLC, but we love it.

Nice looking '95 wagon. Looks my '96 Platinum Edition. I have 123,000 on my clock. Just did Blistiens HD struts and shocks. Great handling and ride. Great improvement I would recommend.

I can carry 4 single bikes, plus the one on the outside holds my Tandem Bike. The gap in the middle is for a Thule Cargo Bo when I go camping. Otherwise that hits me for about 2 MPG and can't afford to keep box on all the time.

My wifes only driven HER car twice, once to the mall and post office and once to the grocery store.
It has taken over as the family car and the Rover is now what I drive to work.
The leather is good, no rips or tears, the drivers sunvisor will not stay up, so we used velcro, for now.
Needs a fuel door, headlight wipers, drivers wiper arm and the front bumper and airdam needs some love. You cant see it in the pic ( it got cut off) but the pass side bumper cover is banged up. Not bad, but enough.
But this car seats all five of us AND luggage for a weekend trip. And come winter when the Blizzaks go on it will be one hell of a snow machine with TRAC and winter mode on the trans...
