Re: Are we just fooling ourselves? ALL all

posted by  someone claiming to be George Downs on  Fri Aug 10 03:39 CST 2001 [RELATED]

You started your post:

"As the owner of two older ('86 245 and '83 244) 200 series Volvos...."

What you are fooling yourself about is that those are not older cars,

they are NEWER cars. The older ones are the early 444s and previous

that never got imported to the US. I finally gave up on the middle-

aged 444s and 544s in 1971 and got myself a modern Volvo - a '63 122

4-door sedan.

Because of long distance traveling in a borrowed car around the time

of Esther's accident I finally decided to buy the borrowed car after

I put 6000 miles on it, but it turned into a Volvo (a 92 Taurus) but

I still have 3 real Volvos, the 66 122 wagon, the 69 164 and the

Yellow Peril ('73 145E). Far as I'm concerned when they went back

to metric they left a lot of us behind. See Matt's website,
