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.

Condition
6
The car is described as being in 'satisfactory condition for 321,220 km'. While it is fully functional with some recent maintenance, the high mileage suggests wear and tear consistent with a 'Good' rating. The description does not indicate perfect or near-perfect condition, nor does it explicitly state major damage, placing it in the middle range.
