1980 242dl 4 speed white

tiberium6 · 08-11-2011, 11:02 AM

since for sale forum require price, I would like to ask here, how much would a turbobricker pay for this?

you guys do notice the rust spot when thinking of the price right?
the car has been in San Deigo all its life, I can't find VIN record for it (it's actually 2 digit less than today's VIN) but I have all the record since 1980!

fcpgroton · 08-11-2011, 07:09 PM

Great car and with only a little over 100K miles, it better run.

nice, what will be your 1st mod to make it a drifter to ultimately destroy it in TB fashion?

I'd hit that like a hammer smashes an egg

We had this EXACT car when I was in HS. I think my younger brother finally killed it.

amerbritcan · 08-12-2011, 01:38 PM

holy crap how many of these are there. A twin to Jen's first 242, and Mr Vagabond's up there^

I had an identical one for a while too. 1980, 242, blue interior, white exterior. Parted it out.

kampman · 10-26-2011, 06:45 PM

$1500-$3000 would probably be fair, depending on the condition of the wiring and such. Body looks good.

fcpgroton · 10-26-2011, 07:00 PM

I would say 2K.

Old Iron · 10-26-2011, 07:35 PM

Not a bad looking car, why is the plastic panel uninstalled under the front drivers side fender!

cookiemonster · 10-26-2011, 11:33 PM

Vagabond can haz 3!

olov · 10-26-2011, 11:36 PM

don't sell it to anyone in AZ, they'll crush it

Volvo was the #1 imported car into North America in 1980.

So I would say there are a few still left.

Nice car, there is a local guy with a mint green '79 for sale. He wants $3500 for it, but it has IPD bits and has been completely gone through (he was a Volvo salesman and bought it new).

I would say that car could pull anywhere from $1-2k pretty easily depending on its presentation in person.

Its hard to give a proper price off of a few pictures on a 30+ year old car.

Shimmy · 10-27-2011, 02:14 AM

2k is more then reasonable for that clean of a car. Very nice...
