The 700 is a very different car from your current cars. It will most likely outlast either of them and be more reliable too. It won't ride as well as either of them, though. Understand that one owns older Volvos for reliability, affordability, and truly great engineering -- not to slavishly follow the newest trends in automotive styling.

I bought my '86 740 GLE wagon new. My son has a '87 760 turbo sedan. I drive a '81 240 sedan. They are all great cars. I hope you love the 740.
