1989 Volvo 740 GL review from UK and Ireland
"Toptastic"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing apart from a noisy fuel pump, which still runs perfectly.
General comments?
Now converted to 7 seats with a kit from a 245, cracking car, indestructible, lovely and comfortable, I've never had a better all round car. Although we do run a 1.1 Metro for my wife, both cars, bought, MOT'd, taxed and insured, Comp on Volvo, and TPFT on Metro for less than a grand.
