Hi..seeking information. I have two options right now to replace my 1985 Buick..both are station wagons about 1991.one is a Taurus for about $1200 from my mechanic..the other is from a friend of a friend who is redoing a Volvo and it should be in very good shape when done.

I live far from any Volvo dealers, parts, etc. and don't have a lot of money for repairs, but I know it is by far the better car...

Any suggestions? The Volvo is about $2200...the Taurus is ugly to boot but the Volvo is black and I do not like black cars..also don't like greyish beige cars which the Taurus is...

Of course I could keep looking. mg
