Well, that certainly is the anti-mini-van! We have a 1995 850 wagon
purchased new in 94. A second baby was on the way and my wife had just
turned 30. She did not want a mini-van or anything even similar (hec, she
wanted a convertable). I'm kinda sensing a family theme for Volvo advertising :)

Let us know how you like it.

P.S. 10 years later, still no mini-vans for us. A roof rack and
Thule storage box provides the extra space needed for family trips.
That is something I'd recommnned as the family grows.
