1990 Volvo 740 GLE Wagon review from North America

"A hardworking and versitile classic wagon"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

The rear window wiper motor doesn't work and every once in a while the antilock brakes don't engage.

General comments?

The car was a fantastic purchase. As the third owner of this family wagon I wondered about its condition. But Volvo makes a very strong car. It's not the most powerful or the most beautiful but it stands up to the worst driving conditions with class, comfort, usefulness, and most importantly safety.
