1987 Volvo 240 review from North America
"A great lovable car for the tinkering type"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Timing belt went at 250000.
A/C does not work.
Body very rusty, and getting worse.
General comments?
Does not handle very well stock.
This car is bullet proof!
Cramped driving seat and not much leg room.
Headlights fog up fast.
