This 1999 Volvo V70R AWD is a rare Laser Blue "feeler" listing located in Rexburg. An Idaho vehicle for its entire life, this wagon features a solid interior, third-row seating, and several period-correct performance upgrades. While it currently runs and drives, it is being sold as a project due to common P80-platform maintenance needs like cam seal leaks and ETM issues, making it an ideal find for a Volvo enthusiast ready to preserve a legendary colorway.
