Default FS 1998 Volvo Turbo Wagon $4250 (pics coming)

I am really sad to sell this great car...but like its time for this Swede to go...hopefully to someone with a family or a desire for a fast car...

For the speed freaks
This 1998 Volvo V70 T-5 with a 5-speed manual transmission (rare)...she has ~240hp...she can go from 0-60 in the mid 7's and is really quick

For the practical types
I get about 9l/100km (~26mpg) average driving (99% highway)...very reliable...safe (ABS, Traction control, side airbags etc)...as it a wagon so it carries sooo much stuff...trailer hitch

For the decadent
The Volvo's have the most comfortable seats in the business...great stereo...sunroof...power everything

I've always taken the car into the Volvo dealers in Edmonton/Calgary or Mr Volvo...full records available.

This car is discounted heavily since it has a lot of highway km's on it, however well maintained volvo's are almost eternal. I'd have no problem driving this car across the country...

Bottom line, you will have a hard time finding a faster, safer or practical car for this price. Here are a few reviews
