My brothers dream car has always been a wagen. Any wagen. I agree with him
in seeing the complete and total practicality of a wagen body style, and he
grew up hearing legends of the older volvo wagens. When the time game this
summer for him to be able to afford to buy a car, he knew he wanted an older
volvo wagen. I found him a '85 240DL in AMAZING shape for a measly $3K.
something like 120K miles on it, perfect body, no rust, all major
service.....it was a collectors car. Well in 2 months, he put over 30K miles
on it (we travel I guess). He has even camped out in it on several
occasions. I sleeps 2 as comfortably as a vanagon when the seat's folded
down. Truely a great car. Its mechanically simple, and the legends are
true.....if your going to start the "swedish war", i guess this can be a log
on the fire.

Keep the old volvos alive as well!!!
(especially the OLD volvos)
