Please remember first and foremost the previous owner altered the engine so it is actually only just over 135k. I'll explain a bit more in a second.I bought this vehicle because it runs great, has a sunroof and has never had any real problems. Since I have owned it, the only time it went to the shop was to renew the inspection. I paid 2,200 dollars for it 2 months ago. If I wasn't so busy with school I would take it around the country this summer. I just don't have the time. So good luck, and whoever wins is a lucky duck!!! Congratulations. Understand the reason I'm so enthused about this vehicle is that the previous owner is a mechanic. This vehicle performs as if it had about 100k miles and I am willing to somehow guarantee satisfaction. I am removing the reserve price as Craig's List viewers are offering 2,200.00. It turns out that the parts from this '94 Volvo being in such immaculate condition easily total 2,000. I am commited to the auction technique and am still opening up the bidding at 999.00. I expect that it willl reach the 2,000-2,500 range but I can't be certain. My best advice is get your bid in, and with some luck you may even beat the Buy-it-now price. I have a buyer coming to check it out tomorrow afternoon for 1,500.00 and I'm half tempted to just pass it her way as it seems simple enough especially considering I am swamped with my Master's degree final courses and will sell to the first person with money in hand, (or deposited in my checking account. She's got a sunroof; economy to sport mode at the flick of a switch, discreet yet nice paint job, as previously mentioned the engine runs like it's less than half it's age. Great gas mileage, and an all around safe vehicle. 10 disc changer with loud after-market (BOSE) speakers. Like I said a different friend of mine with a lot of mechanic experience said I was foolish not to sell the vehicle as individual parts. He was saying I could pull close to 2,700.00 that way. I just don't have the time, truly I don't. It is not perfect, of course, actually the right interior turn signal will not light up, yet works fine outside of the car. This leaves me to assume that it's just a fuse; I just don't know which one. Honestly that is the only actual non-working aspect to this car. I have never had a stall or non-compliance while starting it. I believe the first thing that will need attention will be the right brake pad/shoe. (The cheap one). But the brakes perform quite good, I feel very safe in this car. I just want you to know all the little things about the car, good and bad. Please get back to me, and just because the last offer was 2,000+ dollars doesn't mean I have been paid that yet so this is still fair game. In fact a fair offer of cash in addition to something tangible as a bartering tool: car, jetski, jewelery, musical instrument, to name a few will be seriously considered. Thank you, Michael Sullivan PostScript: I know as far as warranties go it has tire coverage for years to come. I actually utilized this the day I had it inspected and had new front tires put on it.On Apr-18-10 at 05:10:10 PDT, seller added the following information: I am donating all proceeeds to Ether Inc. A non-profit organization dedicated to educating young teachers about the abundance of Epilepsy among young students. My reason for selling this car is equally related to the fact that after oveer two years of abstinence of seizures; I woke up the Saturday before Easter on my bathroom floor, and it took several days before I regained full use of my legs. That was the main side effect, and since I can't drive again, and I have a chance to help the organization out I might as well just donate my proceeds. I probably should have mentioned this sooner, however I didn't want to give an impression of using my disability just to raise the price. So if you have seen my car by now you probably just expected to be buying a great car. The surprise is you'll be donating to a great cause too!!! Thanks, Michael Sullivan
