My girlfriend and I are currently in the learning process of buying
our first car... which we will need to drive across the country before
we start using it as a daily driver. We've been looking around on the
local craigslist listings for preferably older wagons around 1200.00,
and a couple of Volvos have caught our eye.
The first is a 92 740, though we aren't sure which style, whether reg,
GL, or Turbo, and the people haven't emailed us with that info yet. It
seems like a safe investment, and will be offering a little bit less.
1000 would be ideal, but probably unlikely. Here's the link to the ad:

The second is an 85 740 wagon, and we haven't received an email back
yet, so what's in the ad is what we know: http://seattle.craigslist.org/see/cto/1484358902.html
We're just sort of in the dark here, and we don't want to make any
costly blunders. We've been researching the different volvos and it's
getting a bit overwhelming. Probably after test driving these, we'll
have a better idea, but basically I just hoped to get some sagely
advice from some knowledgeable enthusiasts. What to stay away from,
any particularly good years, etc.
Sorry for the long winded post, but the search is getting a bit
daunting.
Thank you,
Morgan
