1990 Volvo 240 DL review from North America
"Reliable, comfy, and gets GREAT MPGs"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing so far, quite the "brick" of a car. It's got a bit of rust, but what car doesn't in Ohio?
General comments?
Very comfortable car, handles fairly well, and has a nice ride to it. It's nowhere near as quick as my previous car, it takes about 9.5 seconds to get to 60, sometimes 10. Not complaining considering most SMALL cars today take that long to get to 60, and this is a mid-size Volvo.
