1985 Volvo 244 DL review from North America
"Safe"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Water pump, timing belt, stereo, front end struts, ball joints, center bearing, belts, just normal stuff nothing ever went wrong with the engine or trans..
General comments?
The VOLVO 244 DL is a fast and comfy auto to drive and is allso good looking.
They are HONDA spanking.
I like when other people ask me why I drive a VOLVO at such a young age? I reply with, I never get stopped by the law and never has the car left me broke down at the roads ends.
