call me crazy, but i love the volvo 240 wagons. for several reasons:

* they're built tough
* they go forever
* the seats are fecking comfortable
* they have a TINY turning circle for cars of their size
* they drive the correct pair of wheels
* they are a drift machine (no, i'm not kidding!)
* they will happily cruise up the highway at 150+ km/h
* the cargo space is REALLY FECKING HUGE if you fold down the seats
* if you get the dickie seat you can seat 7 people
* they're cheap and easy to get bits for
* there were turbocharged (and some intercooled) models
* they're 200-300kg LIGHTER than equivalent-sized holden/ford/etc

i dare you to find all that in a camry or subaru for under $16k:P i know, i own a 240 wagon myself. bought it with the purposes of shipping around corolla parts, highway trips, and being a daily driver. its great at all three
