Hey guys, like the title states, looking to buy a wagon, ideally I would like a 7xx or 9xx but any will do.
MUST be manual transmission, and be either turbo or rwd - if it's both that's perfect :)

Don't want anything that's got a lot of damage or rust, but it it's not "mint" that's ok. I also have a 98 S70 sedan I can throw in for a trade if that interests you. As for budget, don't have a strict one, but I'm not going to overpay. These car's aren't worth too much anymore - it's sad but true.

If you're planning on selling your wagon or know someone who is, let me know! Thanks.

1. All 700/900 are rwd
2. Only something like 6% of 740s were sold with manual transmission in north America. So finding a manual, turbo, wagon is not easy. Two Cvc members do have one though!
3.940/960 were never sold with manual transmission in north America. You can convert them with Volvo parts though.
4. Good luck!

How about an automatic, non-turbo 2-door? I'll be selling my 780 soon...

if you would consider a 240 wagon; 1988 is supposed to be a good year, you could add the turbo later if you want, relatively simple with factory parts

Yes, do tell. That does sound interesting. Can you post some pics and give some more details?

And that 240 is a little rougher than I'd like, thanks though!

If anyone has an 850/S70 T5M they are looking to sell, I would be very interested.
