1972 Volvo 145 Sport Wagon review from North America
"I hthink this car is great and if I could find another in better shape, I would buy it"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The master cylinder went, constant points replacement. I love it.
General comments?
I'm in a wheel chair {previous car accident}, this car suits me well. I put a lot of miles on in a summer, and bang it around a lot, dumpster green and all the chrome.
As stated by another, the trans shifts hard and sporty, unlike his mine will chirp second! Pretty cool for an old wagon!
