Well, I guess I have to watch out for all those people that are heading back
. They are coming straight at me as I am about half way there with my 850 at 105k.

So happy to find this thread! I thought I was the only one who wanted to drive to the moon, and thought I hadn't made it yet, but I was using the average distance (238k). 98 V70XC, 234k and change, no longer AWD. Most of the way through a Stage 0, excepting doing the vacuum lines. I love me a good harvest moon! Thanks to all the folks on this forum that'll keep ol' nordic thunder running all the way back to Earth.

Radiator, alternator, starter, ignition, timing belt, water pump, new leather, double DIN, usb ports, IPD bars, mounts, inserts, slotted rotors, cleaned injectors, sound insulation, roof rack.
Although "harvest" and "waxing" moon are more appropriate, I'm going with "Sailor Moon"..The aftermarket one.
Life is like a box of chocol- make that an engine compartment. You never know where the tubes go or how to rout a belt 'less you read the diagram on the underside of the hood. Do it right the 2nd time. So when all else fails, READ THE INSTRUCTIONS.

I got 281K on the S70. Since I've owned the car for more than ten years I think I can get the 300K plaque from the Volvo High Mileage Club if it ever reaches that
