1989 Volvo 780 review from North America

"These were stunning cars; it's a shame they didn't hold value/increase in value due to scarcity"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Headliner is sagging.

Turbo hoses are going out.

Seats are worn.

Dash has cracks.

Heated seats no longer heat.

Tape player has gone out.

General comments?

I love this car. It's strong, peppy and has aged well. It will probably last forever.

It's rare and scarce, but is probably worth less than "normal" 1989 Volvos because of its scarcity.

Rear wheel drive makes it tricky to "go in snow."
