So, I have been looking at RWD Volvos recently, and there aren't too many in my area (Columbus, Ohio) that are in great condition. I am looking to use one as a daily driver.

Locally, there is a 1991 Volvo 780 Turbo for sale, with 120,000 miles, but the owner is asking $4995. Do you think I should go for it or wait on something else? I am going to look at it tomorrow. I like the car because it is turbo, has a nice soundsystem, and it is low mileage. Where there are problems with these vehicles?

If this doesn't work, my other option is a 1993 940 N/A auto with 160,000 miles. The car is very well cared for, and everything works: A/C, heated seats, etc. It is $2500 with a set of snow tires as well. I drove it, but it didn't have much power. I may buy it in the mean time, if the 780 doesn't work out.

Let me know what you think. Thanks.
