1992 Volvo 440 GL review from Norway
"Best car for the money (at least in Norway)"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Generally not a lot, but electrical and transmission problems accrued.
Lately I had problems with the dynamo, but it was fixed in 20 minutes and it wasn't expensive.
Different story about the transmission. Gear change is not very precise, and nobody actually know why!??? Everything is in perfect order and it should be working perfectly...? But it isn't. But I can live with that.
General comments?
A good car. Nice seats, comfortable.
Driving is nearly perfect for a car of this class and age.
Dynamic engine and low driving costs.
Easy to repair "small" things by yourself.
