1990 Volvo 340 GL review from Netherlands
"Reliable and safe"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing! Just changed the tyres..
General comments?
This car is absolutely underrated. It may be ugly, but it is dirt cheap to buy, the safest car in it's class, very comfortable and surprisingly spacious. In the city fuel consumption is not great, but on the highway I managed to get about 6.5 liters per 100 km. I recommend this car to anyone.
