How Much!

Cleaned up the garage, found parts laying around, but it turned out to be a complete Volvo 480? If you want to sell your car (480 only) you can place an advert here.

being featured on the cover of a magazine doesn't justify thast kind of money. :shock:
and mine has a full volvo service history. And a similar mileage, and no rust. still isn't worth 3K!!!!

About a third that in excellent condition, would be more realistic.

Mine (turbo) was 2.5K! I'd pay the 3K if it was a turbo automatic.

Martin, if you are happy with your car, price is not important.

Bargained my way to £1200 for my Two tone, Didn't think it was too much. But really, if you compare that to what you could be getting in a Vauxhall or something for similar money, they are a good buy at any price :D
