Soon after the announcement that Fido is dead, [livejournal.com profile] curlyeric contacted me. A friend of his had just moved to San Francisco and was selling his car. I look a look at it and I'm buying it tonight (with help from [livejournal.com profile] marnen.

It's a blue 1992 Volvo 740 4-door Wagon w/ 4-Cyl. 2.3 Liter engine and 176,000 miles. By the owner's records, it gets an average of 23 – 25 mpg (which is much better milage than Fido got).

Recent work, as stated by the seller- last year 2 new snow tires. New CD player/radio, IPOD connection in glove box (IPOD not included) installed this summer. Radiator flushed 7-07, Transmission Service 11-06, and New Air-Conditioning System Installed 6-06.

The car has: power windows w/ child safety locks, power door locks w/central locking, ABS braking, driver's air bag, cruise control, roof rack, and heated front seats (Bun Warmers).

I'm looking forward to getting the car. All the doors and windows open and close and the heat/ac works. Which for anyone who has ridden in Fido in the past few years will know is a major improvement. And the heated seats is a definite bonus- considering I don't have lava for blood like some of my friends do.
