People are giving good advice. I will tell you two things: First, the 940 wagon of that year and mileage is an exceptionally well-made car that will last you a long while. The red block engine has a long history of careful tinkering so that the engineering is about as simple and well-thought out as you may find! The wagons are legendary in terms of room and drivability.

Second, if you decide to get the 940, something weird will happen. You have never noticed 240s and 740s and 940s in your symbolic environment. They have functioned so far in your vision only as background. Suddenly, these ordinary cars with flat lines will catch your eye. Soon you will be waving to other drivers of RWD Volvos. Before you know it you will look at the odometer of parked 240s and 740s when you walk by. You will visit this board daily.

It is some sort of Viking hex, and you may find yourself under the spell...;)
