My driveway has had nothing but Volvo 240's and pre-1993 Saabs for almost 10 years (except for the wife's Subaru, and that's really a "Saabish" Japanese car). I drive them because I like cars with character that don't look like every other car on the road. They also both demand that you maintain them; when you sometimes get those periods where every niggling issue is taken care of they make you proud to own them. I'd rather have my 18+ year old Swedish cars with dash lights not working, drooping headliner and missing flimsy trim pieces than any cookie-cutter "dependable" car. Also, I've had eight of my Saabs and Volvos surpass 200,000 miles; my two kids still drive the ones they got when they were 16 (good values, those kids!).
