Read my signature...

these are Volvos.. they even give your million mile badge.. i would say any volvo that doesnt make it over 250,000 miles should not deserve the name!

My car is pretty good ..needing some work though..main seal is going so i will be doing some major work on the system this summer.

Otherwise people are surprised its that old and mileage.

These cars dont rust so they keep a pretty good shine and yes we get little problems here and there.. but overall.. they are great cars!

this 850 t5r is my first volvo in my life,and i really think that i will stick to volvo for the rest of my life!! :lol:

not usual here in italy that people have cars with 350k km,they normally change car every 3 years and people say here that a car that has 100k km is finished its life,they think that engines are made out of butter,makes me crazy some times,couple of weeks ago i was having a discussion with a guy,he said to me...what are you doing with that old volvo,its time to change it...and all those kilometers...i wonder how that car can still manage to work!!!!

do you believe it guys!!!how stupid people can get??

btw people here get to crush cars when they have 10/12 years (i mean the scrap yard)
