I'm the new owner of a 1991 240 automatic wagon. The car has 168,500 miles. Car was originally sold in PA then went to VA, to AZ to Cali, across the country to Nova Scotia, back into the US to NH and now to MA. No accident car fax, odometer is working, but will get new gears before it craps out. The car fired right up even on a cold start. Idled perfectly, no smoke, drove and stopped perfectly on a two hour drive home.
As I do with all my cars it will get a good base-lining including timing belt, water pump, all new belts and hoses, new fluids, complete tune up, etc... The interior is rather filthy, but in good condition. Nothing a bit of time with a shop vac and carpet cleaner won't take care of.
Car was a daily driver up until this past month. I think I got a good deal at $1500.00
Came with all original manuals, original jack and original tool kit.
Clean coat on the hood and roof has "patina'd"
Owners says recent timing belt, but for what they cost I'll replace it.
Rear bushing have all been replace with poly bushing.
Summer and studded winter snow tires included.
Needs:
Blower motor replaced. Ordered.
New door map pockets. Already ordered new ones
Yellowed headlights replaced. New ones are on the way.
Replace the two sun visors and clips. Not easy to find the round mount style.
Rear washer fixed
Some rust around the passenger's rear wheel well fixed. Looks like an earlier repair that has started to bubble.
Antenna not working
Factory radio/cassette missing. An OCD thing, but I loath newer style head units in these older Euro cars. Fortunately AM/FM is fine for my needs.
One front speaker cover needs replacing.
Dash is cracked.
AC system needs to be assessed.
Interior is being cleaned and the carpets re-dyed.
The seats cleaned.
Timing belt, water pump, plugs, dist. cap, rotor, hoses being replaced.
New headlights are on their way.
