I love the way my 940 faithfully starts every time I need to use it.
leaves many a newer way more expensive car for dead at the lights.
Once a month I do a 800 mile round trip and it never ever misses a beat.
can in minutes change from a comfortable 7 seater into a van to carry large loads.
Does not stand out in the crowd and attract unwanted attention.
Feels as good today as it did when it rolled out of the factory.
Cost nothing to maintain and can all be done at home with no labour costs.
Was designed in such away, that the wiring loom is the same on them all so options can easily be added as and when you want to fit them.
I can go to the local breakers and purchase for next to nothing upgrades and parts to keep her going at little cost.
My car is not depreciating like a two ton brick from outer space ever time I go out in it.

And most of all I love it.

The fact that there aren't squabbles for the front seat because the legroom is just as good in the back as it is in the front.

And when people say they got a good deal on a car, really cheap etc, you know you can always one up them when you tell them how much you paid and what it's got.
