Currently have the R, and my wife has an 04 s40T5. Both are great cars. Have previously has 760GLE (much trouble with that one, I'm afraid) 99 s40 1.9 (pretty good car but the pickup was terrible) and an 00 C70T5 coupe (loved everything about it). Plenty of other non-volvos, but nothing worth mentioning. Committed to remaining a 2 volvo family, I think.

I had to drive my husband's 1999 Ford F250 Superduty and HATED IT!!! Am so glad to have found my 95 960----ahhhhh.....a car and a TRUNK!!! (Doesn't take much to impress me!) I also (only when in DIRE need) will tackle a moped of my daughter's but it doesn't like me much and always tries to throw me---and succeeds most of the time! I also have a horse, but i don't get to drive it at all.....

Started with:

1981 Yamaha Virago 750 (sold)
1981 Chevy Monte Carlo (traded in)
1988 Pontiac Firebird (sold)
1995 Pontiac Grand Prix (sold)
1959 Harley (still own) :grin:
1995 Honda Del Sol (via marriage, sold)
2001 Jeep Liberty (sold)
1950 Harley (still own) :grin:
2002 Volvo S60 (still own) :)

The Volvo is by far the most comfortable car, the Saab the most fun to drive. But give me the sun and the Harleys any day of the week.

Status: OFFLINE



Had -

1990 Honda CRX HF - 1.5 liter 4 cylinder - This model could reliably achieve better than 50 mpg, more than a decade before gas-electric hybrids appeared on the market.

1994 Nissan Se-r - B13 - 2.0 liter 4 cylinder - Bought this because I couldn't wait any longer for a CRX Si to come along at a reasonable price, glad I did.


Have -

1996 Nissan 200SX Se-r - B14 - Same sr20de engine as previous Se-r, sans the intake cam, due to more strict emmissions.

1996 Volvo 850R


I'd have to say the b13 se-r was probably the most fun car i've had, but that might be because my 850R is automatic and every other car i've owned has been manual. The CRX would have been my favorite had I ever swapped a real engine into the car. Stock output on the CRX HF was a dismal 62 HP.

Techs list of cars sounds super redneck right? :P Funny part is fox body mustangs are what got me into cars. :)
