1984 Volvo 360 GLEi review from UK and Ireland
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The steering rack failed, and the fuel injection relay needed replacing. I also needed a new battery and a new tyre. But thats about it really.
General comments?
What a wonderful car. Mine had been soundly thrashed and abused before I got it - but it happily bounced back for more mistreatment from me. I doubt it'll pass its next MOT, but I still managed to sell it for £250.
And I think I'll replace it with another 360. Mine did 20,000 miles in ten months with me in perfect comfort and very quickly too. I even had it up to 120MPH once - and it didn't sound too strained or touch the grey line. I reckon that 130 is a possibility. Not bad for a car that Volvo claim can only do 110.
I can't enthuse enough about this model - go buy one.
