1993 Volvo 240 review from North America
"Reliable"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing.
That is a tremendous endorsement considering this is my wife's car. She runs this car as if the brake and throttle were off and on switches.
General comments?
I have been in the automobile business for 10 years prior to my present job and needed a car I could rely on to carry miss speedy and the children 125 miles a day. She had sent three domestics to their graves in one year, so I chose a known good bet.
