NEW TO WAGHOON · OCTOBER 14, 2026

1991 Volvo 240 Wagon

Three hundred thousand miles makes this 240 interesting rather than invisible: it is the durable, unpretentious long-roof at the opposite end of the market from showroom collectibles. The $4,500 asking price and simple rear-drive four-cylinder layout put the emphasis on honest condition, maintenance history and remaining usefulness, not a low odometer reading.

Inspection priorities

These are questions suggested by the advertised configuration, not diagnoses.

Odometer and service history

Does the odometer still work, and what records support the 300,000-mile reading and recent major maintenance?

Structural condition

Can the seller supply underside photographs of the floor, rocker panels, rear suspension mounting points and spare-wheel wells?

Cold-start and road test

How does it start cold, maintain temperature, shift and brake, and which cooling, suspension and fuel-system parts have recently been replaced?

Before contacting the seller

Advertised asking price at the dated source review. Confirm availability, fees and an itemized total with the seller.

Confirm the exact vehicle remains available, request current exact-VIN photographs and the title and service records, and arrange an independent inspection. Waghoon does not sell, reserve or inspect vehicles.
