Well it was a fun ride but some azz tard pulled out in front ofmy wifeon a wet night and so goes the red wagon to the great insurance holding yard in the sky (or industrial park). I will be looking for another wagon though after insurance settles up was thinking 1998 instead of 1999 or any otherwagon that is as reliable any opinions?? Anyhow hope you enjoy the pics oh and if anybody knows where i can find out how to tell where the vehicle was manufactured on the Vin i.e. VIN decoder i would appriciate it, will use in myfuture car search as I want to know where my next Volvo was made. Cheers

That sucks. Hope she's okay.

 

The vin plate under the hood should tell you where it was made. Also IMO get a 1998.
Glad she is ok!!!!
Another good sign of Volvo Safety!!!

 

She is ok except poppig Vicodin for two days and complaining about headaches and muscle aches better than sitting in the hospital wracking up $$$$$$ in medical though. I am very impressed with safety to say the least the police report said that the hit was a 45mph to 45 mph i.e. 90mph combined and it was with a full size ponitac 2003 pontiac suv and come to find out latera Suburban too. Anyhow the 1998 seems like a better car from what I have read think country of origin has anything to do with quality of the vehicle if so how can you tell exact country it was made in? The RIP 1999 was made in like botswana or something....good to see your still around tech

 

Like I stated before look at the plate under the hood behind the battery for the country of origin.
I have always heard that the car from either sweeden or Belgium are the best ones.

And yes the 98 years are a ton better than the 99's.

 

Terrible. Glad she is OK. Volvo does it's job again.
