1989 Volvo 740 GL Wagon review from North America
"Great second car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Water pump was just replaced.
Heater fan had to be replaced as it was completely corroded due to water leaking in from the faulty design of the windshield seal.
Radio display not functioning.
General comments?
The quality to dollars spent ratio is unbeatable with excellent reliability thrown in as a bonus.
