Re: what to look for in a used volvo??? ALL

These replys are all so wonderful. I forgot to mention that the reason why have decided to get another Volvo. Last month my father and law gave us a Ford Conversion Van. First day the relay for the power windows blows up. This requires a trip to the dealer (there is no way of finding relays on conversion Vans) this costs $150.00. Two weeks later, she won't start in cold weather so I try to adjust the choke...the four barrel holly is non-adjustable. Turns out to need a carbeurator Kit and two hours of labor...$300.00.

My wife now refuses to drive the van, she has confiscated the Volvo, the kids and the dog, and I'm left driving the pride of Detroit-a converted nightmare that is specially engineered NOT to work on.

This is why we are selling the van and buying another VOLVO.
