Anybody here owned a Volvo???

For some reason Volvo is seen as the car you get when you are roughly 100 years old, but I've always liked them. Anybody here had one or at least driven one?

Was your Volvo good, great, shitty?

Really curious

Car as any other car. I kind of like certain models, same with Saab. For example C70 is my favorite, especially the older one... Looks sexy. Does not look like old man's car. Of course certain models do.

My parents used to own a Volvo 440 and that thing was a tank.. It kept going and going and never had any problem in 9 years. Great car!

I must admit though, the new 460 or so looks pretty sharp.

My only experience of a Volvo involves me in a Renault 5 travelling at 3mph throuh a car park.
The Volvo reversed into me.

Damage to Volvo = Nil
Damage to Renault = New Bonnet, New Bumper, New Cluster Lights..

My Mother had a couple over the years. She also bought my sister one when the first grand kid was born.

Dependable, safe, lasted forever.

old Hale & Pace sketch about prim and proper English people meeting scandinavians, within it was the line from the scandinavian "we will go out for a crash in the volvo - don't worry, it's quite safe"

Gem of a line which has always stuck with me, and I think of it whenever anyone mentions volvos

Was a mechanic in my twenties which might be more than a few years ago. Worked at a shop once that only did Volvo & Saab. What did I learn back then...

1)They run like shit to me but they run forever. Quite a few that came in were over 200k miles, 240 model.

2)Easy to pick. Guy I worked with always locked the keys in them. I got into them in seconds.

I have S80 T5 2011.
Good car, but quite expensive in service. Eats a lot of gas. Not a single break since 2011. Bought it because needed a decent car with less than 250 horse powers due to hig tax (but as much close to 250 as possible).
It's way better inside than japanese D-class cars, but slightly worse than German ones.

Bought my 83 Volvo DL new for about 16k and everyone thought I was nuts.

Kept it until 2007 - was mostly a second car from 1988 on. Very reliable and built like a tank. I am sure I did not put in more than $2,400 (other than oil, tires, batteries etc) in repairs.

Father drives a loaded AVD Volvo now which is very comfortable and now that he has hit more than 90k has had more repairs and problems (expensive $$$$) than I had in more than 20 years and he treats it like a baby. I figured out a few months ago my Honda civic with twice the miles has had less than 1/3rd the repairs, all being far cheaper.

Drive a 2012 V90 for a few months in the summer. Very comfortable. Handled OK, shitty mileage. For the money I would rather buy loaded Subaru AWD and keep what's left to pay for the insurance for years.

My folks had a few when I was a kid in the 1980s.

I think Volvos are nice cars really.

I loved driving my buddy's S60 ..... I had a VW Pasat, and I found his S60 more fun to drive, even though I am a huge fan of German Engineering.
