1991 Volvo 240 review from North America
"This car is great, only had to do maintenance that would be expected of a car this old. Buy one!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Replaced front shocks (still had original)
Front torque rod bushings replaced.
Front brakes discs and pads replaced.
Getting ready to replace foam in driver seat.
General comments?
Car is a bit slow off the take off, but once moving handles great.
Amazing turning radius for a big car.
So much space a person almost feels guilty.
4cyl engine gives pretty good gas mileage.
I see so many with over 400,000-500,000 km that I have no worries about the next few years.
