HI, I have opportunity to buy a nice condition 850 non turbo wagon. It's the 2319 cc.
Could you tell me what the performance is like?
Cheers

andybbrown--I've worked on (changed out the transmission) a client's 850 sedan and thought it was spunky enough--no problem getting on the highway, etc.
I'll point out that you have posted your message in the rear wheel drive section of the Brickboard where many posters do have FWD/AWD Volvos but you'll probably have more of response by posting in the FWD section. -- Dave
