98 Cabriolet

[John Cody Forbes]

Following Huw's point, my brother-in-law bought a Volvo v70XC from a dealer without having it checked out. A few months later I put it up on the lift to find the drive shaft *not there*. He bought the AWD model specifically because he wanted something that won't get stuck the two times per year it snows here.
