I've only seen old Volvo's on the road when the V44 club came to the U.S. I sometimes see Amazons, but they are few and far between.

Sometimes other Volvo drivers are interested enough to ask (at stop lights) about my car, and I've nearly caused accidents from drivers trying to see the VOLVO logo on the front to determine what kind of car it is.

I guess I should get the trunk logo and put it back on...

I hear about a lot of old Volvos, but I have to go hunt them down, as none of them seem to be on the road.

Which is strange, considering that all those old cars are said to 'run great' but no one is driving them. Perhaps the body design causes people to think they are much older models than they actually are.

Probably the most common question after 'What is it?' is 'Can you still get parts for it?'

It's easier to find PV544 parts than 2003 Dodge truck parts...

You might try the VCOA website to see if the car shows up in any photographs.

Meanwhile, mine remains my daily driver. It's just too fun to drive!
