General discussion about Volvos, Volvo parts, your DIY skills, Volvo ownership, and more. Come on in, introduce yourself and say hi! List Volvo events here. Have a nice Volvo? Show it off here. Do you have a question or comment about how MVS works? Ask here.
All of my Volvos are babies... all in the 180s. My GLT is at 184,600. My cousin's '99 S70 T5 is at 237k right now, and he still romps on it regularly. These cars can take a beating!
I added poll choices all the way down to "Under 100K". After some thought, I figured this poll is better with all choices available. No reason to keep it only high mileage Volvos.
Unchanged: you have up to 3 votes in case you have up to 3 Volvos.

Well my 1995 Volvo 855 Gle has around 315,000kms (only 275,000 on the cluster, thanks to Odometer gear), My cousin's Red 1995 Volvo 855 Gle is the least traveled at 270,000 (Only 220,000kms on cluster), And My Brother's bad boy 1999 V70R Awd will likely be rolling over the 300,000 mark in a month or two (Actual mileage, thanks to the digital odometer)
Quite Frankly, None of us think the other person's wagon is better than that of their own.
Except mine is clearly the best shape, thats why its gone the farthest.
346 K miles on the '98 V70 stick, but the engine was swapped out at 229.5 (due to a burned exhaust valve on #3 cylinder) with a used lower mileage example.
