1990 Volvo 440 GLT review from UK and Ireland
"New meaning to I Roll! Most pleasurable 1000 miles of my life!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Slight rust around the rim of the sunroof - paid 1K for the car, so not worth fixing properly (used filler instead).
Doors squeak (sorted with regular lubrication).
General comments?
A whole lot of car for a first car.
The mockery from college "buddies" soon halted on inspection of the motor. This is NOT A GRANDADS CAR!
