I just bought a 850 Sedan for my wife, and safety was the Prime Consideration.
I was involved in a car accident which totalled my 4Runner after christmas.
Had me very worried about the car my family was driving around in (1990
Integra).


We have only had it for a couple weeks and are HOPING for a minimum of
repairs in the upcoming years (it is a 1996 base model with 73k).

It hasnt taken long for me to want to dump the Integra for another Volvo,
a wagon for ME to drive. We love the feel, look, styling and importantly
the safety. I do wish the sedan's gas mileage was a bit better(18 in town
and 27 highway), but it will have to do.

so...

3, 9, 10 and yeah, given my new found experience with Volvos I
will probably buy another. Knock on wood!
