Default New member & new to Volvo

Just bought my first Volvo. Been pretty much a Saab guy. Bought this to replace my wife's Honda but she finds the visibility of my Saab better for her. So as any good husband would do I'm giving her my beloved Saab. There is a lot to the Volvo I can used to rather quickly. This is a 2004 s60 AWD with 117k. The overall size is about the same as my Saab but sitting inside feels a lot roomier. Actually have space for a water bottle and cup of coffee. Controls are easy and well laid out. Quiet and comfortable. Definitely better with the safety items.

So I'm joining the forum because I really know nothing about Volvo and their unique quirks and how to deal with them. Fortunately I bought this from a friend and very experience Volvo mechanic.

Welcome to the forum and congratulations on your new Volvo, sounds like a great switch! Glad to hear you're enjoying it! Make sure to show it to us, when you have a chance.

What are your plans for this beauty?

Thanks. I have a lot of respect for good engineering and a good car. Everything seems fine except the leather is showing wear and the radio has some issues.
