My odometer stopped over 20 years ago at 189,000!

My '88 DinoVolvo finally died a few weeks ago. First trouble it ever gave me. The reason this car hasn't been resurrected is because you wouldn't need to buy a new car for decades! The best car ever made, in my opinion, if maintained properly.

These are the best cars dollar for dollar that were ever built. I love my 91 and I was fortunate enough to find one with the rare, manual, moon roof 👍

What my car lacked in style &sex appeal she more than made up for in dependability, ride & safety. I love this car, so much so I'm still driving it in 2003 w/ over 160,000 miles on her. She keeps going and going and going.

The quintessential old Volvo

A Toyota Camry from this era is probably a more economical car to own, but the Volvo makes more of a statement and has it's certain little features that I can appreciate. A word to the wise if you plan on buying a Volvo from this era; make friends with your local Volvo mechanic, becuase a dealer will take you to the cleaners. Also, finding decent used parts for this car has been very easy as well; my local junkyard usually has a few Volvos like mine lying around. I have had two front end collisions with the car, as well as a break in, and I was able to find used parts at a fairly decent price for each incident. Mechanically, the car has never let me down through much use & abuse. Period.
