1987 Volvo 360 GLT review from UK and Ireland
"I love it but don't tell my mates. My wife drives a more modern car but I prefer the Volvo"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Corroded fuse/fuse holder for the petrol pump leading to erratic reliability until the problem was solved by re-fitting.
Rear exhaust rattled on bumps - solved by weld strengthening.
Rear shocks had to be replaced.
General comments?
A wolf in sheeps clothing above 3000rpm.
Heavy handling at low speeds.
Very high petrol consumption at high RPM (bit obvious!).
No street credibility - less chance of being stolen.
