Hi, I am AJ from Vermont.
This is my third Volvo, 1990 740, never had any problem with it. 2nd 960 1993 one of the best car I have owned never had any problem with it either. Now the 850...
This car runs so good and is so quit. sometime I am wondering if it has started. I just bought this car from ebay with 150000 miles. Naturally it was suppose to be top shape.... but when you buy a car from ebay you have to keep in mind that you may have to add 400-500 dollars for repair once you get it. the car looks like new, runs like new, Their is more power than I can use. and all instrumentation is in working order. I have paid $1700 for it, other than 2 oil leaks, one that JPN help me fix for $4.00. This guy know his sh*t . the second one is the oil cooler inlet, after Ii'am done withthis one I'll be in top shape for hummmm.... anyway I love volvos. I also own a Mercedes 1990 300e ,a Ford Mustang 2001 Convertible( wifes car) and a Chevy Blazer 1996 4x4 good for transporting stuff and perfect for the Vermont winters.
I live in Vermont with my wife and my 6y/o son, 2 daughters in college.$$$$$ in Montreal.

N/A or turbo?

It looks like the previous owner knew his way around Volvos because I notice the bumpers are painted.
