Default New Member: Just bought a 96 850 estate

Hi! Just picked up my first Volvo, a 96 850 wagon with 317 kms (I'm Canadian) on the clock. It needs some TLC, but I plan on bringing it back from the brink and driving it for a while.

I'm a former Honda owner (have owned 4) including a 12 second turbo civic. I still love my Honda's, but it was time for something new, and I have a soft spot for wagons! I don't have any grand plans for this car, other than to fix what needs fixing and use it as a reliable daily. I might through some rims on it, but otherwise keep it mostly stock.

I'll post pics of the wagon tomorrow.

Welcome to the forum.

The following thread would be of help for keeping your 850 at optimum running conditions.
