What things have gone wrong with the car?

Electric overdrive, small electric problems, heater fan, radiator, turbo, engine rebuild & clutch at 145K miles.

General comments?

Very solid for a car with over 200K miles on it.

Is this car really that great?

Aside from the fact that repairing the turbo unit will be somewhat expensive when it dies, YES! these cars are that good.

I own a Volvo and it has over 230,000 miles and the OD still works and running well

fourth cylinder has a misfire not because of bad valves, but because it is not aligned properly

the transmission seals are not swelling like they should so it leaks fluid, but not enough to care.

They are really heavy cars which is good.

I love my Volvo.
