Hello, it's been a long time since I have posted... I just need a little encouragement to get my next Volvo. What I'm contemplating is a "one owner" 1983 245 DL w/217k. It's manual, the o/d stops working for some reason once it's warmed up, the body is very straight, no rust here in PDX, and the interior is excellent (minus a few tears on DS seat). On the test drive it has a little miss that feels like something just cuts-out for a second, but otherwise it has every iPD suspension item one could ask. It's a non-turbo vehicle and it also has the iPD sport exhaust and adjustable cam gear. Just wanted a few opinions before I take the plunge, and see what you guys thought about the $1100 asking price. They have all the records since new... Thanks for any input! :)
