It's a Grampamobile but looks pretty clean with fairly low km's for the year albeit a little pricey. I think I saw it in town a year ago for sale then as well, if it's the same car it was very clean in and out. And here I was saying Volvo's never come up for sale down here. :oops:

$3K seems a bit steep to me - You don't need a turbo donor car and should be able to find one for under a grand. Not that I ever look at the 700 series cars, but my folks sold their '86 in mint condition (except for a faulty wiring harness) for $700.

Yeah I thought it was overpriced as well. As I mentioned to Matt in another thread I'm not interested in it at all, just posted it as a PSA and to make light of my comments that there are never any Volvo's for sale in Lethbridge.

A low mile (155K) 240 sedan just popped up on kijiji in Lethbridge, looks pretty plain jane. I think it's the parents of someone my daughter goes to school with so it's seen a bit of gravel as they farm south of Coaldale. I thought the price seemed way high but it seems close using KBB.com, low km's I guess but still its 19 years old... I know the comment about it being bought/serviced by Mr. Volvo won't endear to some here. :evil:

FWIW here's the link:

Hmmm, interesting. Does seem a bit steep, though the mileage is amazingly low.
For a second I thought it might be a nice 90's wagon with Classic wheels I saw earlier in the week on Scenic.

Ad now updated as SOLD, no idea of course what it sold for but that was quick at a fairly steep ask price.
