Hi all,

Ok, my beloved 745 needs more work. Not expensive stuff but at 180K, parts are wearing out. I'm debating whether or not I should move over to a Honda Accord or CRV. I love my volvo but with the amount of traveling that I'm doing I get nervous about being stranded. I've had great luck with the Honda's and know that they also make a car lasting 250K if properly maintained. This is my first Volvo and not my last. Best car I've ever owned. I think in the four year that I have owned it I put at least 5K in repairs. So there are a lot of new parts that have been swapped out. It just seems that theres always something new every few months that needs replacement. At 180K, I'm sure thats normal. So what would you do? Sell it off and go with the Honda or keep it until it dies... or when I can't afford replacing stuff anymore... which quite honestly it's getting to that point.

How much are 1992 745 w/Third row seat going for these days. Car is in great condition and have all reciepts to prove work. Oil change every 3K w/Mann Fiter. Interior is shows well with no rips or wear. I can provide more details if you need.
