1993-2000 850
1998-2000 S70
1998-2000 V70
1998-2000 XC-70

That stuff. I'll have more for the other sections up soon.

I want to have the years be inclusive model years, not production years. If a model was MY 1992 in Europe and 1993 in the US, I need to list it as "1992 - [whatever]".

I don't have any of these memorized, and sources on the 'Net are sometimes contradictory.

Thanks.

740 1983 - 1992

Thanks Bill. Are you sure about the 850 being MY 1991? I've read that it was a MY 1992 car in Europe, MY 1993 in the US.

Matt,

VADIS shows the 850 from 1992. Autodata, which I used for this project, shows 1991 and this is supported by The UK Volvo Owners Club in their Volvo History.

http://www.volvoclub.org.uk/history/850sed.shtml

It was launched in June 1991 and, as far as I remember, the first cars were on the roads in August. So that would make it MY 1992.

Apologies.

Bill.
