Awww.....I believe the FAQ is a bit disconcerting.

A year and a half ago I purchased a 1995 960 wagon to haul the wife and kids around in. It was a trade in at a local Audi dealership. I bought it for too much money and I drove it for about 5 miles before the upper inlet on the radiator burst and sprayed hot coolant all over the engine bay. I had only had the car in my possession for about an hour! I had the car towed back to the (now closed) dealership and had to wait until the following Monday to talk to them about rectifying the situation.

Meanwhile, I was referred to the Brickboard for the first time by an aquaintance, and read all the things in the FAQ. The FAQ got me all freaked-out and I was having some serious buyers remorse. It was pretty disconcerting.

Anyway, I have not had a problem with the car since then. I'm very happy with my Volvo 960! I got ahold of the local Volvo service center and they gave me a rundown of everything that had been done to the car in recent years. A replaced PNP swith and new struts. A tranny flush. Synthetic oil. Timing belt. Other than the PNP switch, nothing out of the ordinary....just basic maintenance.

It the most comfortable car I've owned and I LOVE IT! I would buy another, and I frequently watch 960's on eBay Motors just to see what kind of great deals are going down on this Fabulous car!

Too bad it doesn't get better gas mileage.

Cheers,
