Hi all,
First time here...great site!
Need some advice. Am getting rid of my Jeep Wrangler and want a Volvo. Had one in collge ('82 240) and loved it. Did most repairs myself, so can handle that. Everytime I get on the road in Atlanta, I fear for my life, want something REALLY safe. (that means a Volvo in my opinion).
Not looking for brand new...can't afford, but am looking around the $5,000 price range.
Since I am familiar with the 240's, wanted advice on newer ones.('85 and newer??) Also, any input into the 740's, 850's, 960's, since I am considering this also. Oh...and am interested in a wagon.

Let me know opinions about models, safety, reliability and probs. on any and all. Thanks in advance!

Could this question be any more broad ranging??
