After many years of owning Volvo 740's,780's 940's, some converted to V8 cars, I am now considering an 850 sedan for my wife.
I am familiar with these cars,(my sister has a nice 1996 850), but would like some input from those who have owned 850's for a period of time and work on their own cars.
I do 90% of repairs on my vehicles.
Any way. Are there better than others when it comes to the mid 90's cars ? From what I have seen advertised, my price range puts me in the 1995-1997 850 segment.
Are the turbo cars as reliable as the non-turbo cars?
What ever you would like to share information wise would be helpful.
Thanks in advance.
