of , oh, hundreds , or , perhaps, more like thousands of cars ive driven
( i own my own automotive business, ) .. . . the two most comfortable cars I EVER sat in, were a mint condition mid 90s' LSC Mark VII, ... or a 90s Volvo 240 or 940. . the 740 seats some of them were just too ... swoopy.
those 240 seats, were designed by Chiropractic SURGEONS, in Sweden, in the late 60s early 70s.. the Mark seats are JUST as comfy as a restored Volvo 240 seat. I bet even that pimpdogged out plush fuzzy trunk is comfy to nap in.

the Mark seats are awesome.. .for just being, pure plush lazy boy heaven.. the volvo 240 for being long term back health.
When my wife ( the woman of my dreams with a brilliant mind and also drop dead model beautiful.. ) told me that her office chair was making her size 5 trunk hurt on long days, I took it upon myself to build her an office chair. took a day of taking seats apart at the junkyard, time getting a collection of perfect seat parts together, .. then almost two days of building it, and finding a good chair base that would fit... but its been months now and she has never been this comfortable at her work.
It was a toss up between a Volvo 240 seat or a Mark VII seat. . i opted for the Volvo seat because the Mark seats are not single , they are almost always part of a multi section bench that can operate in sections, or together.. but , either way, the mark was far too complex to build into an office chair.. even as comfortable as it may have been. so, she got the Volvo 240 seat, . . and shes as happy as can be with it.
