Hi Steve,

Sell the 850. Spend some money on fixing up the 740. It's a tougher car, plus it's a wagon. 850s are nice, but not as tough as a 700/900 series car. To add to that, I'm told by my Volvo mechanic that the auto trannys in the '93/'94 850s weren't very tough. The '95+ 850s had better auto trannys apparently. The '93/'94 ones can last a while if flushed regularly though. I'd keep the 740 if you like it. You should easly be able to get another 100K mi out of it if you take care of it :)
