Looking at selling my 240 for another Volvo (thinking about an 850) and was wondering what more experienced owners would pay for this.
I bought it for $4500 in early 2020 and since then I replaced the engine mounts, timing belt, water pump, engine braces, handbrake cable and handbrake shoe. It's currently sitting at around 190,000kms.
I also installed a new exhaust system, $1000 speaker system, custom headliner, parcel shelf, and rear window louvre.
While I spent a fair bit of cash on fixing these parts I believe the car has lost a lot of value due to major exterior damage (from previous owners I swear) including a large scratch on the left hand side doors, sun damage, cracked vinyl accents, general paint damage and most importantly a wide and numerous coverage of small hail damage dints. It's gearbox (m47) is also on it's last legs with every gear change being forced in and feeling very clunky. Seriously sometimes I'll drive it and think "this is the day it falls out".
Other than the gearbox and exterior damage the car is sound mechanically and internally (the upholstery is mint) with the only slight issue being the fuel pump starting to change, but nothing serious.
With all this considered what do you think I could sell this for within the next few months? Thanks so much
