most exciting to drive. So older ones can still be found in serviceable
condition. Other similar large estates - like say Ford used to make - are
getting rare.

Scary prices for Volvo spare parts though, from what I remember.

No get them from people like http://www.eurocarparts.com/ or my current
favourite http://www.gsfcarparts.com/ coz they have just opened a local
branch. Any other difficult bits get them from the local scrappy. Course if
you have to go to a main street dealer they will rip you for parts - course
you will know they're not really cheap will you :-)
