So it's a 1995 volvo 940. LPT, low pressure turbo. Manual, 5 or 6 owners, 211k miles
Clutch and turbo recently replaced (2022)
3inch straight pipe from the cat, otherwise original in engine
Whatever history i can find on it seems okay
Front left fender got quite a bit of rust, but i can get a new fender.
Rear fenders are a little rusty, ut not rotten. A bit of paint could fix that.

They want 3000usd for it. I think it's a bit much, but these cars are have skyrocketed in price lately.

Replaced clutch and turbo is a big deal. Turbo can be a lot of money and work.

Assuming you’re going into this with a bit of a project headspace, remember it’s 30 years old so any of the plastic and rubber bits are going to be in questionable shape.

Tbh a wagon will probably be best for me and my work trips

#

Just having the cruise control is a big plus

I lost hope on whoever's selling the 940
