2000 Volvo S40

[tony barnhill]

When my daughter graduated from law school, she gave herself a new car; a 2000 Volvo S40....Now that her son is a toddler, she's bought herself a soccer mom car: the big Lexus SUV.

So, her Volvo is for sale...now, I'm not a Volvo guy but I told her I'd help her sell it....here are the particulars:

+59,000 miles
+silver w/grey leather interior
+fully loaded
+always maintained/serviced by the dealer from whom she bought it
+one owner, lady driver

Biggest thing wrong with it is there's a tiny dent in the plastic rear bumper on the driver side (she can't back up in parking garages) & some scumbag broke her radio antenna in a parking lot & scratched a little paint right around it.

So, what's the range I should ask? I'm thinking low of $6,000, high of $7,500 - but I need advice...

NADA says $6,800 (trade) to $8,600 (retail).

So I'm not too far off @ $6,000-$7,500...think when I get it here after T'giving, I'll get my paint man to give me a quote on fixing those 2 little items; maybe I'll get them fixed.

As with food: "Presentation is Everything."

And the mileage is in your favor, too.

Don't forget a full detail of the interior, My brother managed
to get another $1K because the interior of his truck was spotless...

She's already had it professionally detailed....
