Hello everyone. My aurora has lots of issues that need fixing. IT doesn't have heat now and rear sub-frame need to be replace and famous cross over gaskets and list goes on. I going to sell the car:(.. It was already replaced with 2018 S90 volvo Inscription. However i still will have 1 Aurora in family that my mother drives. That i will keep for long time even if its need fixing in future since its 2003 and its has better rust proofing then 2001 had plus my mother only drive about 7k a year :)Yes i know Car payments but with baby and other things cant afford putting money now in Aurora . I did get good deal on the car. But from having car for few weeks i can say no new car will beat aurora in practicality. I don like the new car it does have some nice options etc but all new cars are feel synthetic not real. Here few pix of the new car.

I keep thinking about selling my '95 but there's so much wrong with it that I don't want to inflict it on somebody else and I can't bear to see it scrapped/parted out, so in the driveway it sits.

So some updates about my new Volvo. The car is gr8 most of my friends cant believe its a volvo. However there is few issues that i am sure no one had this with Aurora when it was new. First the brakes or rotors having issues already and i read its a deflect for new volvos and dealer will replace them free. The other issue i ran to that my steering wheel controls for the radio stopped working turns out the switch it self was faulty. The other thing i was hopping the Volvo Dealers will be better then GM but deff not the case only 1 dealer where i got the car is decent all others dont give a dam . Had to complain to Volvo corp about some of them. And of cause same as GM not so easy to get a loaner with Volvo unless its huge dealer with hundreds of cars. So yes for 70k price tag car(of cause i paid less with good deal) is not something you would expect. But i do like the car but Nothing will compare to Aurora . Yes it wont have all the Auto pilot and other things but i think the best and practical car ever build. Thats why my moms aurora will stay for long time and when she is done will be my project car:)
