After haunting the 700-900 side, this is my first trip to AWD land. Thinking of a later-model C30 / S40 / V50, after two long years with no Volvo.

Is there anything for sked maintenance and "pop-up" repair problems to differentiate between the three models?

My interests run toward a base engine and automatic transmission, but I can be persuaded if you wish to weigh in. We are a two-person household with little-used rear seats, and not even a dog to carry.

And having had a 945T, the care and feeding of a turbo would not frighten me off, if it was comparably reliable.
