First of all, my user name is AlfaRomasochist which tells you a lot about me right there. I've owned at least one Alfa at any given time for the last decade plus, everything from a 1960 Giulietta Spider to a 1987 Spider Quad. I've also owned a few fun BMWs, Mazdas, and Datsun Z-cars over the years. With a wife and 4 kids under 12 – including one with special needs – I decided it was time to spend a little less time in the garage. I put the last Alfa up for sale ( http://ift.tt/YbOd4T ) and started looking for something for a manual V70R.
The Volvo appealed to me because it would work year round in Denver, fit the whole crew to keep the miles off my wife's leased CX-9, and still have the potential for a HPDE now and then. Plus there are lots of good independent Volvo shops in town. I found the car on Swedespeed after missing out on a number of cars with lower miles. I decided to pull the trigger mostly due to the remarkably good cosmetic condition considering the miles, plus it already had the 3rd row and integrated booster seats.
