The US was spoilt with these...they were still fairly expensive, but nowhere near as much so as they were in Australia. Possibly the smartest car purchase of 1962.
Usually, I enjoy driving- even in bad traffic up to a point. Its very rare that I deliberately drive where I furiously skid the tires, weave around lanes around +20 speed limit like some sort of hummingbird or deliberately otherwise like a furious-asshole. LOL. Dad once abruptly gave me some crap for how fast I had his van go through break pads though- that however was extremely ironic to me considering that I was in extremely good moods around that same time. I'm certain I had a short lived habit of treating his big, 80s conversion van like an overpowered, big and heavy go kart. ROFL.
No car will last for long if you drive it like that, but a Volvo will last longer.
If you drive it like you hate it, eventually you will love it.
