Quote cast with your first car. Mid 70's red Fiat 128. 500 bucks right after college graduation. Spent that first summer zipping around the hills of Vermont pretending was in the Italian Alps.

Finally gave up after a year or two of weird breakdowns when understood “fit it again tony”

1998 Volvo S70

Had significant mileage, but only one owner who had taken good care of it. He gave me a deal (~$2000) because I was broke and he was an alumnus of the high school I had graduated from

I can still smell the leather seats and I loved how "heavy" and secure the car felt, despite being a compact. Miss it!

Classic, reliable Volvo at a steal. One of a kind find
