1984 Volvo 240 GLT review from UK and Ireland
"Ahead of its time!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Electric window switches.
Steering arm broke under pressure when locked at 45mph resulting in major crash.
Over-drive temper-mental.
General comments?
This car is fast as hell, no mods, this car has done the 120mph on the clock without clicking on the over-drive. Very ass-happy with the RWD. This engine is something special.
