Thinking about giving up 850 for a 960? Should I do it? 850

My 97 V90 was comfortable, but costly. Cannot even believe I considered keeping it instead of my old 740. Eventually had to donate the thing to get rid of it.

Rotor and brakes, rotors and brakes, multiple failures of power drivers seat, ignition coil - left me stranded one Christmas Eve, plastic handles breaking off everywhere, leather on drivers seat splitting (and I am not a big woman :-) ), CD player failure, hinges and clasp failed on center console, ac surging on and off, engine oddities, paint slicked off bumpers from people bumping shopping carts into it at the grocery store parking lot. And this is from an eight-Volvo woman who babied two of them (200 series) to over 300,000. Think now that maybe the car was a 1980s Chrysler product in disguise.
