Default Bought my first Volvo - Willn't be my last!

Hi there, I recently bought a red/orange 78' Volvo 245 DL at a charity auto lot for $700 and I couldn't be happier. Body and interior are in perfect condition, except the seats which have covers on them, and the paint and crome are still really good too. Its got just over 300,000 on the odometer and still runs great. Has a few problems, but nothing major. This is my first foriegn car and I have to say, I'm amazed at the thought, enginuity, and simplicity that were put into volvos. I've driven a few german cars and they impressed me, but not like a volvo. VFL - Josh

300k is impressive. Quite a change from domestic cars.
