Vehicle Details

AI Listing Summary

This 1980 Volvo 245 GL, a second-generation 240 station wagon, is a 7-seater with a 1.9L engine and French registration. Despite its high mileage of 321,220 km, it is described as fully functional with some recent maintenance and a tow hitch, presented with no reserve price.
It's noted as a symbol of durability and a benchmark for U.S. safety tests, making it a potentially reliable classic. The condition is satisfactory for its age and mileage, suggesting it requires some level of reconditioning expected for a vehicle of this age and usage.
