My half-brother had a GTi until he started doing rally work in the local mall parking lot ...
But at the same time he was working on a 66 Stang with a newly put in 351
A volvo is pretty cool but it's just soooooo soccer mom carish that maybe he'd be more interested in finding new ways to drive it creatively
What does he say?
What does he want?
Every car that I bought, I bought because I liked it. Still drive'm like a moron but since I'm invested in it I drive it knowing that I'd have to repair it if it breaks.
Regards to the buying side of it, have him buy in on a loan from you. 0% interest
volvo ... I'd like one today but not 20 years ago
