Fellow Rennlisters I am selling one of my "R" cars. This 1998 V70R wagon has 200,000 miles on motor, automatic trans and chassis. The interior is in very good shape. The paint is fair. The PO was a family of avid skiers so there are a prodigious amount of scratches. Cool stuff includes:

OEM stainless dual exit exhaust
R suede interior
OEM Bose stereo
Titan wheels (negotiable)
AWD delete
Hi-pressure turbo
R instrumentation.

Over the past 18 months the following maintenance and upgrades:

Control arms
CV joints
Tie rods
Anti-sway rods
Front LH bearing hub
Low miles turbo (30,000 miles used)
Front calipers, rotors and pads
T-belt and water pump were done 11/22/2013 at 200,000 miles

This was my wife's car for the past year and a half hence all the work I recently bought her a sedan so we no longer need the car. This wagon runs and drives awesome and even without the AWD will run circles around most 4x4's on the highway during one of the worst storms we had here in the NE. I am asking $2250 without the Titan's or $2750 with. Open to offers. PM or call me (603 396 eight three five five) for more info.

Thanks -Pete

True story. In 2001 I traded my Saffron Metallic V70R Wagon (valued at the time for $19,000) plus $20,000 cash for a 1989 red/black Porsche 911 Speedster at a Porsche dealer in North Caroline (Foreign Cars Italia). The deal included transport to the NYC area and picking up of my Volvo. I kept the car 2-3 years and sold it to a collector in California for $42,000. I thought I was a hero at the time.

Thanks. Still available! MisplacedYankee got killed by NJ insurance coverage so he's out. Come guys don't make me park this baby. Make a reasonable offer. Cash, trade, partial trade.

I've got two project cars a 1987 944 NA going M030 suspension and euro pistons and a 1978 928 RoW looking for brake upgrade and euro intake runner and inlet upgrades.
