I'm asking for advice on buying a used Volvo wagon for a daily driver. It has to be ready to go-I'm too old for a project--and a wagon. I can't afford a good 240, can't find a 940, and don't know anything about FWD Volvos. I've owned at least a dozen Volvos over the years, but they have all been RWD. I don't want a Turbo, and want something that is dependable and doesn't need to go to the shop all the time. The closest Volvo dealer is 1 hour away and the local mechanics have trouble with Fords and Chevys. Would appreciate and advice. I'm prepared to spend what I have to in order to get something good, but would like to stay around $5000. Maybe a little more.
Thanks
Jim
