May have been done before, but thought it might be interesting to see which models other members have owned, have you stuck to one or tried many?

My Volvo ownership has been as follows:

1st - 91' 240 Torslanda (H 733 ENH)
2nd - 87 340 GL (D 701 CFS)
3rd - 96 855 T5 (N 154 MMR)
4th - 82 244 GLT (MRV 840 Y)
5th - 91' 480 ES Turbo Auto (Current) (J 546 CYP but now- 4194 XT 56)
6th - 89 245 GL (Current) (F 847 SDL but now 4198 XT 56)

Cheers.

Cool

Golly, looks like I am the Volvo Virgin judging by the amount of some Volvos some of you guys have had.

1994 - 360 GLS
2007 - 440 SI - (with soon to be mended leaky water pump - finally! )
