I just recently bought a '93 850GLT non-turbo from a friend. I have had American, Italian, and Japanese but I always wanted to own a Volvo. Here's what I got:
128K teal green, tan leather sunroof automatic power doors, seats, cruise, blah blah keyless entry (no workee) service records since '96(recent repairs inc. timing belt, cv boots, struts) has been maintained well one crease in rear quarter panel, not too noticeable AC blows cold but the ac off, rec lights blink (problem?) dash is slightly looseI paid $1700 which seems like a steal to me . The car drives and looks great.
I understand that repairs can be expensive but I am prepared to buy a Chilton book and root around in salvage yards. I can do about anything but major engine/transmission work.
Any comments or advice is greatly appreciated as I am just starting out.
Thanks
