1985 Volvo 740 GLE review from Australia and New Zealand
"This is a very quick and cheap car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The head gasket blew only a few months after warranty.
The interior is in bad shape and I recommend you do not buy this vehicle.
General comments?
This car is very quick.
This sr20 turbo can run a 1/4 mile in 11.0 sec.
However this car handles like a shopping cart and it is recommended not to go around corners.
