My Volvo is a 1999 V70 GLT with 126K on it. Its pretty much stock but it does have the rear "wing," I replaced the stock grill with the grill from a 99 V70XC (because I like it better), and I stuck on one of those aftermarket interior "wood" kits. I have the charcoal interior and had the kit made using a gray burlwood color. I kind of like it....

here's my 98 awd r, now with 294K on it and i'm shooting for 400K! i use it as my daily driver and tool/materials hauler when i do traveling contracting jobs, hence the inspiration for the plates. never underestimate the swede.

Denmark, Florida, and California? Sounds like a great 300k.

Hi to everyone,

I'm new here and I'm also a new proud owner of a 2000 V70 XC which is my first Volvo I owned, with 157k miles (234k km). I love it and I bought it for 4000$ with the previous owner spending over 6500$ to fix various things (new brakes, abs module, ETM, suspension parts and especially a new timing belt/waterpump combo 3 months ago). Here are the first pics :

I will ask questions about the various things but I'll do it in the proper places

We had a 1979 242GT. That was my favorite Volvo of all time. Slow, boxy, reliable, great car. I wish I still had it. This is a stock photo since we never took any pictures of it, that we kept.
