Value of my old Volvo Turbo

[Pablo]

Just wondering about the rest of the nation - what my old car would be worth.

1985 245 Turbo

Tons of everything, miles, crud, ect

I may start at $2XXX.00 USD.

What do you think?

I'd start out a bit higher in the hopes of finding a Volvo nut that's interested. I'd pay a premium knowing the car was as cared for as yours is. Put an electronic boost controller on it with a huge tack and boost gauge on the A-pillar and some 16 year old hot rodder will give you a pretty penny!

Pablo, I was going to say something smart like "you'll have to pay someone to take it".

But after seeing the pictures, it's obvious you've added lots of improvements and modifications. It's really hard to say how much it's worth, but you're probably in the ballpark.....

Got an actual picture of the car? The rest sounds good. I looked at the above site but did not see anypictures of the car, just under the hood.

I'll post some up later this evening. Thanks guys!

I'd make the price $2995. That way, when you're making your sales pitch, you can say, "You get all this for just 2995; but wait, there's more....". Ohhhhhh, I'm here all week.

Pablo, why sell it anyway?

 

[Pablo]

3 cars too many. Insurance, upkeep, broke

 

[MarkC]

I heard that.

This exact car, color and all, is for sale near me for $2000. It looks pretty stock and it may be an 82 model. I love the looks of those models. I wish I had money to burn because it would be fun to boost that car and run with stangs.

 

[Drew99GT]

Man, I like that car Pablo!!! Is it decently quick?

 

[Pablo]

Yeah ok turbo quick.

82 no have factory intercooler
