Well, I think I need to raise my hand. My Mom said it best the other day when she pointed out that no matter how many cars I look at, I always seem to come back to Volvos. Problem is, with my budget, the ones I want are kinda sketchy, high mileage, or at a place that won’t give me anything for my C30. So, I decided to lower my budget even more, and was hit with an idea: P2R

I don’t care how unreliable it may be. Just look at it! And the sound! And the performance! For the prices of these, the maintence bills would be similar to car payments. And I get AWD and four doors!

I know its a terrible idea that will only backfire, but if I could find a clean one that has had most of the major work done, I might just have to pull the trigger.

Hey remember when your V70R made you want to ragequit life? Or how every Volvo you've owned you slowly start to hate? Yeah. Cut that shit out, dude

I learned that lesson when I bought a 2000 V70R with a rebuilt title, wrong bumper, and no records off a sketchy Russian dude for $1700

I actually haven’t had any major issues with it yet. But I don’t have a place to store it for the winter, so it’s got to go in the next couple of months.
