Looking for a used 240 240 DL wagon (or sedan) w/ manual transmission

My 1989 240DL wagon (manual transmission) with 328K miles has reached end of life. The motor is fine, but the body has too much rust (floor boards work). This together with the need for a new muffler, tires, brakes, etc. indicated it is time to move on.
I would like to replace it with another 240 DL wagon (or sedan) with manual transmission that does not have the rust problem.

Does anyone know of one for sale, or good web sites to look for used Volvo's?

thanks, Joe

I know a guy that SPECIALIZES in volvo sales. He lives volvo 240s... kinda freaks me out actually.. I have a 240 sedan in my possesion still, my neighbor SAYS he's going to pay me today, if he doesn't it's going back on sale: http://autotrader.com/fyc/vdp.jsp?ca...lor=&cardist=0

I know my buddy has at least 1 or 2 240s in his lot at this very moment.

Ha, I happen to have an '89 245 5spd. 228,000 miles, runs like new. New brakes, tires and rear suspension bushings along with tailgate wiring.

I really like it, it's efficient and SAFE w/o the hassles of an airbag.

My next vehicle will most likely be a Subaru Outback 5spd. The all wheel drive would be a benefit in snow of MN, and they get the same economy as my Volvo.

Sorry, it's not for sale.
