Both models shared the same three engines, basic structure, and many features.Standard equipment included antilock four-wheel disc brakes, front side airbags, side-window curtain airbags, and Volvos anti-whiplash front-seat backrests and head restraints.Three models went on sale, each with an inline five-cylinder engine.

I recently bought this vehicle from a nephew who bought it new, but finally threw in the towel at 105k after spending over $17,000 on maintenance over his 9 years of ownership (not including tires/gas, etc.).I figured it would probably have a lot of "cheap miles" left in it after the care it had...
