I bought a new 1986 Volvo stationwagon, great car, 4 cylinder, 4 speed standard with electronic O/D lots of power and great mileage. Had it for about 12 years then it started to "nickle and dime" me. More like everytime I took it in for something I used to give them a cheque for $600 and said if it's more let me know.

Bought my Volvo V40 - the small wagon - in 2001, it's done 220,000 km without a hiccup and the service guy says it was the best Volvo model ever made and still better than most cars on the road today. And I did know it means 'I roll' every Volvo owner knows it.
I've always regarded Volvo jokes as disguised envy, and I've never worn a hat. Had quite a few speeding tickets though.
