1990 Volvo 440 GLE review from UK and Ireland
"Faultless"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Starter motor.
Ignition switch.
General comments?
I bought this car 2 months ago at a bargain price of £390. The inside is in mint condition and the outside has also been well looked after. What I do find common with the Volvos of this age is the rust on the edge of the doors. Is this a design fault?
The best thing about this car is that you feel safe and secure. The car handles very well on normal roads or motorways, and there is loads of room in the back for your passengers.
The car drives like new, even though it is 11 years old!
I don't actually have a bad word to say about the Volvo 440 GLE and would recommend it to anyone.
