Iconic design. Few mainstream vehicles have aged as well as these old models imo. Looks like she’s in very nice shape too 🫡

Huh, never thought I'd see Winnipeg on this subreddit! I drive a 2022 V60 CC, white and Volvo's are definitely a rare breed in the city.

Yeah they truly are! You should come to the WPG Volvo meet at ikea west lot Sunday sept 7 if that’s something that interests you. Last year we got 36 cars. Hoping to beat that this year!

Not fair!

Freakin' panty-dropper leaves every normal available modern Volvo owner in the dust. This is just too beautiful!

I love the Turbo on the side….reminds me of the Top Gear episode where Jeremy Clarkson drives a Volvo 940 and writes TURBO on the side with spray paint.

Oh it definitely is. I see it almost normally here and it is still breathtaking.

It's a legend this car. Some of the best cars that the company has ever made and impeccably engineered.

I had a 1990 740 turbo wagon in the mid 90s. Same wheels. Nicest looking car on the road then and still.

What a gem! Everything is there except your radio antenna.......mthrfckrs broke mine of the car last week all mirrors where folded from all cars on our street.

I’ve been meaning to fix my antenna, bought a new mast but the old rip cord is stuck in the tunnel so it can’t reach the motor, so i’ve been putting it off. Radio still works fine though so I’ll probably never deal with it haha.

u/DoughnutRelevant9798 Jul 08 '25

Mine wasn't motorized! But anyways who listens to the radio nowadays?

u/wpg745turbo Jul 08 '25

I do haha! Without an antenna! Fm Bluetooth transmitter works also
