    What are they worth ?

    1. Toyota Camry, 1988 : Maroon; 2.0 engine, Auto, 55,000 miles, excellent paintwork and interior

    2. Volvo 740, 1989, Dark green / blue, excellent paintwork and interior, 95,000

    You can't go sideways in Camry (Auto box). Volvo is the best choice in my opinion.

    Modifiy it a bit and you have an ultimate hooning machine:

    With respect i wouldnt even consider a camry.....theres a reason they are so rare, they were all binned. Drove one and it did nothing for me expect it was a reliable car. Volvo has more soul albeit a box.
