Default just bought a 93 940! 205k miles

Hey guys, thought id introduce myself, im Tom from over in NH, i just bought a 93 Volvo 940 sedan, has 205,000 miles on it, runs like a top. I included a few pics! Im doing the front and rear rotors (brembo, hopefully a good choice) and pads myself this weekend, any pointers on that?...im sure its like any other car. Any quirks i should be in tune with? the timing belt was just replaced. A friend that just sold her 90 740 just gave me 4 new winter tires, i guess there the ones special ordered from the dealer. Im hoping it will give me a few good years of service, not really looking forward to the winter with rear wheel drive though.

cheers,

Tom

Welcome. Nice car. I have a 745t and it has 253000miles and still running like a new car. I wish it snowed in Cali, rear-wheel drive in the snow would be awsome. Changing the rotors and pads on that car is pretty simple. Just remember to have jack stands, and properly bed the new pads and rotors or you will "warp" them really fast.
