I don't know about the 240 GL but I have been eyeing the 850/S70 models myself, even test driven a few, and my opinion is that they are solid machines as long as you find one that has not been abused. And generally I find Volvos, especially manual transmission ones, priced far below their value. But they don't seem very popular. I asked for reviews upande wa Market and never got even one.

You are not suggesting all cars are the same, are you?

Nope...I meant you can get an old car in mint condition...and a fairly new car in terrible condition...it all depends on how the owner of the car treats "her"
