All right, here's the deal: Recently, while just driving down the street (just regular ol' driving) my muffler started, well, not muffling. I drive an '89 240DL Volvo sedan. It went from sounding like a Volvo should to sounding how a Honda with a glass pack sounds. Now, I think it's rather humorous to drive around town with a Volvo that sounds like that, but the problem is that I'm trying to sell this car. My question is, how much should I knock off for the muffler? Insofar as I can tell, there's no visible outer damage to the muffler; a friend suggested that I may have lost some of the weld around the muffler and that's what's causing it.

So roughly, how much does replacing a muffler cost, so I know how much to take off the sale price?

Thanks in advance.
