1993 Volvo 940

Upon us here is a Volvo 940. This car is a survivor, just as I'd expect to find an old Volvo on these cold New England winter streets. When I photographed this car, I realized I've been photographing the 940 and its 740 a bit more frequently. 

Within the fall and winter seasons, there have been multiple entries on various sedans and wagons of these series of cars. I think this in part because the 740 and 940s have begun to reach their "uncommon beater" phase, where they're not quite a collectible classic yet, but they've become a cool cheap daily you can buy that will last you a lifetime.

The 240 has already reached this status, but then again, the 240 is its own legend. It's absurd to think that these 740 and 940s were built to phase out the 240, but since the 240 was too popular, Volvo had to keep it in production after these had debuted!
