  • WTB 740 or 940 wagon [NSW]

Hi Guys

I’m looking to buy a 740 or 940 wagon to use as a daily driver.

hopefully sometime under 200xxx km but not too picky

have clean interior and none to little mechanical issues as want to use it right away

I do have a 740 sedan that I’m at willing to trade

Just remember a car with more miles under its belt (especially a Volvo) (and especially an old Volvo) will be in better shape, having done more trips (longer trips) more servicing, less rust due to sitting idle, it is all relative

Of course it is up to the owner and the mechanic, in any case, to maintain any vehicle as he sees fit, or by the book, some being better at it than others

I always believe the car with more miles in better condition is better than one with lower miles in worse condition

Old Volvo's (especially) really do live forever

Yeah I agree with ramrod decently maintained volvos of this age sit around the 150k-300kms,

But you'd be hard pressed to find anyone willing to sell a wagon that you're looking for (well at least not for cheap).

Volvo wagons prices have gone through the roof in these last 2 years

I find I get roughly ten sedans for every wagon

I've lost count how many inquiries I get per week for people looking for wagons
