    A V70R is my favorite of the lot though.

    PRIMAdonna...was your S40 any sort of special model? It looks a little different from the standard ones.
    yeah... ive never seen one exactly like mine. it was an LSE.. the very last set of the models that were 100% swedish. came with spoiler, body kit, ltd ed. color, chrome trim.. it was super nice. but it had 100k+ miles on it and with the new baby i just wanted something brand new. i really do like my sonata so far though... but sometimes i miss the volvo ... just not paying for the maintenance on that b!tch!

    I've sen a couple like yours and I was wondering if it was some sort of R-line treatment, though I know they only sold the 1.9 model here. It's nice...subtle and stylish, in typical Volvo fashion.

    Ahh maintenance...such is the case with any European car. Hah, I feel the bite of it every now and then with this SAAB.

    it was as far as safety, i just wanted something a little bigger. it was a compact sedan and the first thing anyone ever commented on when they got in it was how cramped it was in there. my baby's carseat barely fit in the back without touching my shoulder in th driver's seat.

    it could have been suitable... just a ton of miles, my warranty was up, and i started having to replace stuff. i just didnt want the worry or to take any chances with a baby, so i got something brand new.

    Makes me proud to be a Sweed.
    I want one so bad, I saw so many nice ones the last time I went to Sweden. My wife would straight kill me thuogh, cause i'de probably get a wagon, and she hates wagons.
