I echo John's comments above.
The first Volvo I had was a 145S, bought as an 18th birthday present back in 1973. It was a 1967 model with the early chrome grille and opening rear side windows, finished in Royal blue with a blue interior. I loved it so much it started a life long love of Volvos and continuous Volvo ownership ever since.
A 7 series or a P80 platform model is I believe the sweet spot for an interesting daily with some character and simplicity of maintenance.
