After having had a number (6?) of different volvo's, I am now considering getting a v70 or 850 (1995-2000) with a manual transmission. It seems like it would be fun to drive around town, for local driving and short distances.

I've looked at a manual 850 and v70. I think they both have the 2.4L (non turbo) engines. I am looking for some feedback from the site members on the special maintenance/ wear out items for the manuals trans that are different from the turbo/ auto trans models.

Also, any personal experiences or recommendations concerning these cars. I can do basic repairs and maintenance on these vehicles.

Thanks a lot!
