re: How to convince your children to drive your NEW Volvo? 200 1993

I'd say fix the problems (water pump and coolant hoses #1, trans fluid #2, brakes #3) and then let the maintenance and more minor things wait a little while.


I got my 740T from my parents and knew I had no choice and wasn't going to get anything else unless I paid for it.

I think it comes down to why don't they want it? Do they have cars and not need one? Do they think it needs too much work and can't do it themselves?

If they just don't think it's cool enough for them, then they can walk and it can rot in the driveway for a few months until it looks better than a bus/bicycle. (Though if you can get around with a bicycle, who needs a car at all?)

Happy bricking!
