If we're doing trip photos:

V70 2004. Piemonte, Italy 2017. And yes, that's all wine.

"Yes it does! Proof that Volvo never goes out of style!"

True! Indeed, unlike other cars, they never will, they never will.

By the way, new guy here as well. Whenever I'm taking a break from this particular interest, I'm usually found at home, feeding my Pomeranian with some treats and watching TV with my wife. And when we're not indoors, we would play catch in our backyard with our dog (though we had to secure one of those pet safe Stay+Play wireless dog fence, just so he wouldn’t stray far from our yard. Our neighbor had a weak wooden partition, and we once had an argument when the poor fella ended up on his lawn). Such a simple, yet, happy life. Cheers!

I love this photo, well done! The colors give it a serene feeling. The XC70 looks good too. Those wheels were an upgrade, correct?

Thanks Matthew, This is the colors of sunny south Portugal, Lovely country. The car was well cared by the previous owner, it drives like a charme. I like it a lot and enjoying it as much as my old silver 240 wagon for long road trips.
The wheels are Erinus 16' , i think they are common to 2005 - 07 XC70 along with the Xenia 16'

I bought a 1990-240 several weeks ago. An older person owned it, who has/had dementia, so it was sold, and then resold to me. Apparently, this gentleman respected this vehicle, and most likely, owned it quite awhile. Around 100k miles, and it was maintained, even with newer Volvo spark wires.

A rare find....previous owner I suspect wanted to keep it, but it had hard starts, and he couldn't figure out that the FPR was bypassing. Roof, front hood, and truck lid all have some sun damage, but other than that, a very clean vehicle.

I plan to make it a Sunday driver, or on trips, and mostly sit inside of a machine shed.
