Recently bought a S60 for my wife. What a joy! I have driven a BMW for years and this S60 is a breath of fresh air, great mileage, comfort, style and handling.

:00000732: Did you pick it up at Volvo of Louisville? I live down in E'town and we bought my sons 850 there. My S60 came from a dealer here in E'town. Glad to have another Kentuckian on board.

Actually I got it off EBAY from a dealer in Cleveland. Much better deal there than in Louisville at the time.

If you bought it used, then I hope you ran a Carfax report on it. When I was looking to buy my S60 two years ago, I spotted a number of very cheap ones in Cleveland. Turns out all had been in rather large accidents. I remember a 2.5T S60, low mileage, for something ridiculous like 10,000. Turns out it had been wrapped around a tree and had frame damage. They fixed it, of course, but still...don't want that...cars are never the same after a major accident - their geometry is off.

I did run a CarFax and it came out clean. It is from a corporate lease program.
