Thinking about buying a 1997 or 1998 965/V90 - some questions.... S90-V90

posted by  someone claiming to be tjts1 on  Fri May 13 11:52 CST 2005 [RELATED]

"Talked to my indie tech who said it is a relatively expensive car to own. He has run 240s for decades. He menioned that the rear shocks run $475 a side, so a replacement would be around $1,000. (He uses Volvo parts only, so fpc might be less.)"

I replaced both rear shocks and springs for $100 total. I believe in the long run the early 92-94 wagons have the lowest ownership cost of all 960 models.
