1990 Volvo 740 review from North America
What things have gone wrong with the car?
In 1992 I purchased my second 740. I drove the car until 2005. I sold the car to a girlfriend, and she drove the car until 2007. The car was sold again to another friend. It is still going, with over 500k on it...
It was a wonderful car. The only issue with it was the fuel pump, which had to be replaced a few times. There were no major engine problems.
A great car, and I would buy another.
