My jeep cherokee is on it's last leg, finances are tight - I went and looked and looked and looked at every car in town.
My requirements were as follows:
1) Good Mileage
2) A little bit of luxury - I've owned some plain jane cars and some pretty cool classic cars (mid 70's era bmw and mercedes)
3) has to be safe (was in a nasty wreck in 2003 and am paranoid about many cars)
4) I don't want it to look like every other car on the road.
5) my mechanic has to be able to work on it without maintenance killing me
I settled on the Volvo V70 (2002 model), was in my budget, the payments won't kill me, and so forth -- I pick it up tomorrow.
I'm thrilled to be here -- for my day job, I'm a photographer as well as a webmaster for Photo Books | Make Photo Books | FamilyMemories - we print custom coffee table books --- maybe we can put together a volvo enthusiast coffee table book...
will post pics soon
