1988 Volvo 740 GLE WAGON review from Philippines
"Great car! safe and reliable!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Car electric fuel pump replaced with fuel filter. had to replace shock absorbers and ball joints. driver seat is worn out. sun roof sometimes would not close. car just needs a little paint job on th hood and roof other wise it's still looks good.
General comments?
Car is actually great to own. very stable on highway driving. handles great power is just right considering the weight. it rides well than my toyota the cabin is very roomy it seats five quite comfortably. it gives you a very safe feeling while riding it.
