My daily ride is a 2006 Volvo V70 tdi, chiptuned it gets to 182 hp, hits almost 220 km/h and in regular use it does 18 km on a liter diesel. Some consider it as a tank, but have to commute 270 km daily,  doing over 80.000 km a year and my fantasy is that my tank is giving me a bit of protection and safety. 
Been a Volvo-fan for many years now. Had 2x 240's from which one was a 240 turbo (awsome ride), a 740gle, a 940gl, 850glt, and V70-classic.  
I think I stick to it
