Personally, Just as I wouldn't touch any Opel/Saab's, I wouldn't do an aluminum-engined Volvo either. Stick with pre-Ford. Find the nicest 940 Turbo you can. No 6-cyl, like the 960's... No front-drive, either. Best resource is http://www.brickboard.com. They have a great FAQ as well. My 1988 760T has 230k on is and is still strong. Easy to work on, parts are cheaper than Saab, and easier to get. Not as nimble, but remember, the REAL Volvo also made trucks, whereas the REAL Saab made fighter planes.
That all said, my boss likes his 2006 S60, and has had no real problems with it, except for the P6 4-Seasons which he swapped out for Conti's...
