So I am looking at buying a used 850 through maybe S70/80 models.

I have owned many models; 122, 140 240, and 740.

I had the least headrom in the 740 by a large extent. I am not sure why as when I look at all the specs online it was virtually the same on paper as the 240!

It was the main reason I had to sell the 740, even though it had low miles and was a great car otherwise.

So I am concerned about say an 850 or S70 as they look more similar to the 7xx series rather than the 1xx or 2xx series!

If you can let me know what you all think from first-hand experiance that would be great.

I am 6'4"+
