1979 Volvo 245 DL review from Portugal
"A car to last a complete live"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
It was necessary to change the clutch, two years ago.
Unfortunately, last month, I had an accident. The front of the car is really damaged but the two powerful shock-absorbers of the front buffer just protected the motor and me. So, the car still works and still moves! Nevertheless, because it is very old, I found difficult to repair it. Are you interested on this car? If yes, just send me a mailto:isabel_doutor@hotmail.com.
General comments?
Even if it is a very old car, it really never stopped to amaze my relatives and me. Always ready for short and long trips, it can carry 5 passengers and a great amount of luggage without problems.
