1995 Volvo 850 station wagon. 143,000 miles. 5-speed manual transmission. Gray cloth interior in excellent condition. Traction control Draw-Tite trailer hitch (3,500lb trailer weight, 300lb tongue weight) with wiring adapter so you can connect trailer lights without sending the bulb-out-detector into a tizzy. Car is currently registered in New Hampshire, but was last titled in Massachusetts. Stereo is an aftermarket Alpine head unit with AM/FM/CD/MP3/iPod playback. Front door speakers are A/D/S 5" coxial two-way speakers. Tires are Bridgestone Blizzak WS-70 snow tires mounted on the original factory 15" steel wheels. They've been run for two winters already and should have a third winter left in them. I also have a set of Sumitomo HTR A/S P01 tires mounted on 16" Volvo alloy wheels that the buyer has the option to purchase for $500. The summer tires are NOT included in the price for the car. Car is in good running condition. Body is in good condition with only a couple of small rust bubbles near the rear window which have been treated with touch-up paint. There are scratches on the roof, and some paint issues on the plastic trim on the right side below the doors. There is also a very small dent on the left-rear door. There is a slow leak in the power steering (I usually add fluid about once a month), and a very slow antifreeze leak (I usually add antifreeze about once every three months). Like most of Volvo's 5-cylinder engines, there is some oil consumption....I have to add a quart about every 1,000 to 1,500 miles. Air conditioning works well, but was converted to R134a, and it has had to be recharged about once a year. You will probably need to recharge it in the spring. Brakes work well with plenty of pad left at all wheels. Clutch and A/C evaporator was replaced in 2008 at 65,000 miles. New radiator in 2009 at 78,000 miles. Front suspension was replaced in 2011 at 110,000 miles. Timing belt was replaced May 2014 at 140,000 miles. New exhaust (cat-back) installed in May 2014 at 140,000 miles. Just installed a new ball-joint/lower control arm on the right side. New MAF sensor, ignition coil, spark plug wires, distributor cap & rotor and spark plugs. Overall, this car is in exceptional mechanical and physical condition for a 20-year-old car. I'm primarily selling because we just don't need it any more, and I need to cut down on the number of cars I own. I am the car's second owner. Although the mileage is very low for it's age, the car has been in the Boston area for all of it's 20 years, and there is some rust on the underside. 1995 was also the very last model year before Volvo went to OBD-II, so this car does NOT require a Volvo Scan Tool for diagnostics or repair.
