Reliability of the 850 850

I wouldn't say that for the 6 cylinder 960. The 850/70 5 cylinder engines are at least equal to the 4 cyl red blocks. The trannies are also good if they get flushed once in a while.
Going 200K in an 850/70 is no big deal, but routine maint of the oil breather system is a must. Just like the RWD Volvos.

The 164 has a new home, all I am left with are a 95 854T and a 98 V70R :)
