Newb intro.

Post by Scarf man »

hello all,

I just bought a used 1996 850 TURBO about two months ago, (my avatar) and I love it.
My parents owned a late sixtys Volvo wagon, and urged me to get a volvo for my next car. So I did, and couldn't be happier.

I had a problem with the turn signals, spedo, and shift lock not working, and this place gave me the answer.
As I learn more about this wonderful machine, I'll try to help where and when I can on the boards.

Bravo, and thanks!

Good to have you here, and good choice on the turbo...they are fast and can become even faster ;-)
