The TDI variants are even rarer. They are now dropping off a cliff!

I have smashed my 1998 TDI and still pondering weather to have it straightened. It has only got 125000 miles and starts instantly, even if laid up for several weeks.

The 850 TDI is an even rarer beast now too. I have one as my daily driver and have done for the last 13 years. It has just got through another MOT, so should be good for a while longer yet!

I used to have a volvo amazon as my daily driver when i was in my 30's, in fact i have had several amazons that i used to play with. Unfortunately they are just too rare and expensive to have as a daily driver these days, that's why i have the 850 and V70. Cheap, reliable and economical as a diesel! The only trouble is, they are difficult to replace like for like anymore.
