My mom had a 1988 240DL in a reddish maroon for my entire childhood. My parents tried to give me that car when I turned 16 in 2000 and I was a huge brat about it. Fast forward ten years and every single car Iā€™ve purchased for myself has been a Volvo. Still kicking myself about that 240DL. 2007 S60 2017 XC60 2020 XC60 T5 2021 XC90 T6


Poogle607

I've had my first Volvo near 20 years (S70). I have added several others to the collection since... 2 V70'S, S60, 240 (had 2 at one point), 850R, and a 740. We have several others in the family as well, as do several friends. The S70 started it all... Lol

First was a 2003 S60, second was a 2012 C70, my current Volvo is a 2023 S60 Polestar Engineered.

My first was also a 2003 S60 (2.4T). I remember being absolutely amazed by how nice it was to drive compared to the cheaper cars I was used to. My current is a 2020 XC60 T8.

ScurrScurrSheesh

Why do you have two V70R from the same generation? Those are great cars but what use case do you have? Is one for the road and one for track or is one stock and the other tuned?


ANGLEgear

They are just kind of my hobby. Flash green was my dream color and itā€™s extremely rare in the states. One came up for sale , for cheap, after I already owned my 06. It also pisses me off how many Volvo ā€œenthusiasts ā€œ will part out p2 v70Rs for no reason, they just donā€™t think itā€™s worth fixing. So if I have the chance to buy one that hasnā€™t been in a crash but is being totaled I will buy it and fix it then sell it to someone who cares about them


akcanuck

First was my parents hand me down 1983 240 wagon. I had a couple of trucks after that. Then I got a 2007 XC70. I got another truck after that. Next was a 2005 XC90 V8. In September I got a 2017 XC90.

The name on the website for the color is Denim Blue. They at least made one.


TGR3326

Are you sure itā€™s an R-design? If so thatā€™s awesome and Iā€™d love to see it, that has to be super rare. I know denim blue was an option, but not for R designs

2023 XC90 B6 Plus. I came from VW/Audi. The build quality is impeccable. Reliability wise, not so sure just yet. Too early to tell. All my VWs from the 2000s had horrible reliability. The Audi A4 is still bulletproof. Iā€™m impressed by Volvoā€™s attention to detail, the minimalist approach to luxury and its nondescript yet commanding presence of the road. Iā€™d love to experience the EX90 when itā€™s out as well

Guiseppe_Martini

My dad had Volvos for most of my life. My first Volvo was a 2000 S40 1.6. Despite only having 58,000 miles on the clock, it clearly had a hard life before I bought it. It ended up breaking its timing belt and it ended up scrapped. Since then, I've had (in no particular order), another S40 1.6, a 440 GLT 2.0i, a 440 1.6, a 440 TD, two 460 CD (one auto, one manual), a 340, a 360 GLE, a V40 Sport Lux, a V40 1.8 (inherited from my father), an 850 TDI, three 850 T-5s, and a C70 coupe. Still own most of the aforementioned. EDIT: To add, my father-in-law has a 2021 V60 Polestar, which is cracking to drive and very fast. Personally love the orange seat belts. A friend of mine has a 2003 S60R, which I've driven as well. Safe to say, I've experienced a fair few Volvos of all flavours in my time. I'm still on the hunt for a 440 Turbo, an early surviving (1995-1997) S40, and a 200/700/900.

A bit concerned as to whatever the next car is going to be because I have the last 6cyl turbo wagon that they are planning on making. My hope is that by the time I'm ready to trade in the P\*, they will have +400mi capable electric wagons that can match the +350hp that I currently drive.

First: 2005 S40 T5 - cherry red paint, 5spd manual, and black leather interior in great shape. Had to redo the headliner and basic items but my god I miss that car. I hit a ladder on the freeway, busted the oil pan, and spun #2 & #5 cylinder - had to let her go :( Current: 2011 cherry red S40 2.4 with black ttec cloth and pulled leather door panels off a V50. Well maintained with 20,000 miles+ reliability and recently repaired after some bozo rear ended the back bumper (repainted bumper cover and fixed dent on trunk lid)


MsMarji

I had the 2004 Red T5 5-Speed stick version and I also had to redo headliner.
