The speedometer only works when it wants to... about 50% of the time... Just hit the dashboard and it goes up.
Catalytic converter and trunk lifters.
This is one solid car for a guy that loves to just abuse it! I am 20 years old and got this as a hand me down, and constantly floor it and brake hard and it does fine, especially in LA traffic! All she needs is a little oil and a wash... This is a great car!
Did anyone else realize that the foam-rubber steering wheel center could be pulled out. There was no airbag in that model year, just the space where an airbag would be. Great hiding place.
I have a Volvo 740 and it is in great shape, but the only bad part about the car I don't like is the 4 cylinder.
Why do you need more than 4 cylinders? In the United States they drive very slow compared to Europe. In Europe, 4 cylinders are more than enough. It hits the 190-200 km/h on the Deutsche Autobahn. Well that's enough for me. And I'm driving this baby since 1989, and never have let me down, except some small things which weren't expensive.
Since Ford took Volvo I don't like it anymore. I love the old solid Volvo's.
