Default Volvo Newbie

Hey all,

Recently bought my first Volvo. 2000 S40 Auto. The car has been the best part of dreams, and the stuff of nightmares all at the same time.

Hoping the next few months can yield some more positives, and we can start putting miles on the car in earnest.

To be fair, we knew we were in for some work the day we bought the car, but at the price we got it for, it was hard to say no to a car that, once given some care, would easily survive another 10 years of heavy driving. I've had friends whose families swear by Volvo (one of whom is driving a '91 240 with over 300k on it).

Here's to seeing another odometer roll over the 200k mark and well beyond!
