anyone else drooling over this wagon?

That is the nicest, most awesomest cluster I've ever seen. If I build up a 242, that is the cluster I'm looking for. It screams fighter jet.
 
that's how a lot of those companies play it up for people that have lots of money but aren't very smart. it's all presentation to hike the price up.

however that p1800es does look like it may legitimately have 90 miles on it.

both seats having wear on them begs to differ. The car seems mint it it has some so t damage or so it seems if someone were to see it in person I ha e a feeling they would confirm wear and marks in numerous places.
 
So I just stopped by this place on my way home! I feel bad for not being freshly shaven and not being in business attire! None the less they were very nice to me and I take back my previous comment. I drove up to this place expecting to see a parking lot full of cars, but there were none! Instead when they escorted me to the Garage I found myself in a paradise full of classic cars of every make and year! WOW, I felt like I was at a museum!

Apparently this group of Volvo's came from a dealers private collection, parked next the 245 was a hundred absolutely breath taking cars and also to my surprise a 122 and a 144 from the same collector! I felt like I was in the same building that they stole all the Ferrai's out of in Gone In 60 Seconds!

If they say that 1800 only has 90 miles, well it probably does!

^ There a ton of pictures on their website, it seemed pointless to take pic's with my ****ty phone!

Oh **** that does look like a museum. I went to buy a couple of mufflers from a guy here off craigslist, round the back of his house he had a collection of about 10 immaculate 60s muscle cars. His "workshop" was more like a dentists surgery, white tiled floors :omg: He was working on them in there too, I have no idea how he kept it so clean. I almost forgot to take the mufflers with me after looking round haha.
 
It really was amazing to stand in there and think that these 4 old Volvo's have earned a spot in that awesome warehouse! haha

And no the 245 did not look made over, I was a little taken back by everything in there so I failed to take a really thorough look! The 144 did have a weird wear mark on the trunk lid...... the 1800 look as new as a 90 miles car could look! I wish I had spent more time and looked under the 1800 to see how clean it really was!
 
That white wagon's had a re-paint. Classic body shop mistake on the tailgate- Volvo on the right, and 245DL on the left.

If it's a 42,000 mile car, why does it have a Volvo 100,000 mile badge on the glove box? Seems fishy?
 
That wheel is the same color as my dash trim after I repented the OEM 240 classic wood trim...would fit like a glove.

Yeah those are e-codes that were not available in '77. even in Europe, I believe they are from 78, to late 79. maybe a part of 1980....
