morch_66479 Hi mate, only 25 T5R sedans came into Australia, no wagons delivered locally, only 850R’s. All T5R wagons you see are privately imported.
Prices peaked around 18 months ago where you’d see some $30k plus results, but they were rare. There were some asking in the high $20k’s although I’m not sure what they eventually achieved.
In my opinion in the current market you’ll pay around $10k for a fairly rough auto wagon, around $20k for an exceptional manual wagon & some good ones in the mid teens.
I’m sure you’re aware of the usual p80 platform issues to check, but ultimately they’re pretty easy to maintain mechanically speaking. Parts are getting harder, especially good interiors so buy the best example you can afford, especially taking body & interior condition into account.
Good luck with your search - hopefully an enthusiast with a good example will contact you looking to sell to a fellow Volvo lover (we’re a weird bunch 🤷🏻😆).
