I have driven Volvos since 1961 when I tried to trade in a 1960 VW Karmann Convertible that the factory paint went bad on and VW paid to repaint but when it came out badly the dealer would not take care of it and even would not give me a good trade! Sure glad that the local (Champaign, IL) Volvo dealer came up with an offer I could live with. I have had one or two ever since! My son has three 122s, one 2 door that was his first car! the others are station wagons. I just sold one pride & joy (a 1971 164E I had rebuilt years ago) to a friend. Probably my favorite was the Red B18 1962 544, I had modified it to the point it would do over 112mph! I drove it to Ohio one late night and passed 52 mile markers in less than 30 minutes! I hated to slow down but we came to our exit! I have had a nice 1972 1800ES (Metalic Light Blue) but really didn't care for the automatic, to bad it wasn't a 4 Speed with Electric Overdrive.
