Default models worth buying 1990-2010

HI group:
I'm looking for opinions on older volvo's. I'd like to pick up another older one, but I don't necessarily want to limit my options to another 240 (I have one I have restored)
My main concerns are "wrenchability" and availability of parts. ie relatively easy, and lots....
All comments and opinions welcome

My '98 S80 was a joy to drive, a bit simpler than the '99's. Parts were readily available, although it has been gone these last for years.
My 05 S80 was a problem free champ.....until 100,000 miles, now is typical volvo. Most parts easy but having trouble finding window rubber.

The I - 5 is tough and not too hard to work on although I've never rebuilt one or removed the head.
