FS: 1998 Volvo V70 Wagon...help support my cruiser habit

MT-PTK · 09-07-08, 10:16 AM

For sale, 1998 Volvo V70 Wagon….
A great, safe, economical commuter car, family rig, or first time driver car.

Help me support our Cruiser habit. Wife is leaning towards a 40 (also might consider 80 or 55's) but this has to go first...orders from the CFO.

139,000 miles (mid-life for a Volvo)
All leather interior (excellent shape...a few cracks))
AM/FM Cassette
Six disc CD changer (needs new magazine)
Cruise control
Power steering
AC (needs re-charge or comp)
ABS/Power brakes
SRS dual airbags
SIPS Side Impact airbags
Rear window defrost
Just inspected and tuned up. (new mass airflow sensor and front & rear O2 sensors)
Newer battery (about 2 months old)
Clock & outside Temp reading (both accurate)
A few nicks and dings that don't show in the picture, but nothing unusual for the mileage.
Oil changed every 3 - 4,000 miles

The bike pictured is a custom 64 cm cross bike built for since I'm too tall to buy off the rack. I just used it to show that with the seats folded down, there is lots of room for cargo. And I can still drive comfortably (at 6' 6" tall) with the seat all the way back leaving room for cargo or passengers.

Mud price. $2,300. I would ask about $3,000 - $3,300 but since the AC needs attention...

Pull those seats and stick them in your cruiser

Don't suppose the CFO would be interested in a 60??

Believe you me, the thought did cross my mind.....which was quickly slapped back out of my head by the

CFO.

She's more interested in a 40 but it doesn't hurt to ask (I'm the 60 guy in this family). Got any pictures?

Have a teen getting ready to drive soon? Nothing safer and more reliable than a Volvo (Well, some would argue a 60 is safer....touche

).

A reliable rig that's been well cared for.....help the habit.

Hey Jon,

Unfortunately your sister wasn't able to make it out to check out the wagon.

Still looking for a new owner for a nice car.
