Where do you live that you need AWD and a FWD car like the Volvo
wouldn't work with snow tires??
The other's comments are right on - you can look at the averages for
repairs but it really depends on your individual car - how it was
maintained and treated by the PO, how YOU maintain and treat it.
Preventative maintenance is a must - oil changes, timing belts, hoses,
etc. All of these things need to be done at the proper time to keep the
car in good shape. Do you have the service history from your car?
I give you a lot of credit for picking nice cars, however...! The 850
and A6 are certainly more than your average HS student cars! My oldest
son just got his license and we're looking at 850/S70 Volvos, VW's,
etc.

That's not much snow...
I think my next comment is going to be: how handy are you with tools,
and do you have a place to work on it? If you learn to do basic
things, you can save a great deal of money...
