On the threshold of getting an S60 or a S70, S90, or 940 S60

posted by  someone claiming to be RB on  Thu Jul 15 15:10 CST 2004 [RELATED]

We have some of the older Volvos (B230F era). Mom is tired of something always needing repair and wants a newer car, or at least something with lower miles and better condition. I tried getting her to look at the competition (Camry, Accord, Lexus, BMW) but she is fixated on Volvo. She will most likely buy another Volvo. How new or what model I cant say - need help.

I have these questions and thoughts:

Is the S60 power train reliable? ... the electronics? ... the body built well to withstand corrosion?

Any years better than others?

The S80 is a great looking car but they are not available without turbos. Dislike turbos in any vehicle.

Features recommended?

Are Service Manuals or CD's available?
