Buy an 850 or 940?

I just finished changing the Cam belt,water pump and Front Engine Seal on an – - 850 !!

Buy a 940/740 – - I am not sure whether the Volvo 850 Engineers were Terrified of a Ford Takeover when they designed the front end of this engine bay – - BUUUT its a shambles …Definitely Left handed son of Atlas territory

I had to manufacture three separate tools to do the jobs I needed to do – - and I used a 1.75 Meter long steel tube as a lever to get off the Pulley nut – - bent the Socket Bar !!

I loved working on the 940′s and 740′s – -always simple – -always plenty of room ( Except the Turbo manifold !! ).
