Of course, this seems to be the only one in the NW and it's about 150 miles away.


I bought my X-wife one of those (and a house, and half of everything else). I think it was an 05. Too small for me to get in / out of without cussing a bit, but once seated, it was OK and I'm 5'10". The seats were very comfortable for long rides (I love all Volvo seats). It's a solid little car, will hold the road well at over a buck 130. Doesn't get there real fast, not fast enough for my tastes, but over all, a damn nice car. If I were looking at sedans, the S80, V8 AWD would be on my short list. I prefer them over an A6 by a long shot.
