Hey everyone, I'm Ian. I have been a mechanic for Euro cars out here in Colorado for a while now, this is my first time purchasing a Volvo myself though. I thought I'd drop in and introduce myself. I just bought a 99 V70xc with a broken timing belt for $800, and after a week of R&Ring the head and doing a valve job, she's finally on the road! There's still a few kinks to work out with her, but for the most part, a pretty nice car. I'm looking forward to learning from all of the seasoned Volvo owners on here, and if anyone else is having any issues, I will do my best to pass along what I've learned.

Thanks!

 

Hi Ian, welcome to the forum.

Glad to read that you saved a Volvo from the bone yard. Any pics to share?
