1990 Volvo 740 GL review from North America

"It's crescent fresh!"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

No trouble other than the minor tune ups!

General comments?

Best car ever! I've driven over 230,000 miles in this thing and almost never had trouble! My only complaint is the lack of cup holders. I deliver pizzas for a living and I would never trust another car to get me through. I keep wondering how long the engine will last, but it's still going strong! I'm thinking of having the engine and transmission rebuilt someday, I mean, the car is safe. It handles amazingly. I'd like to own this car forever.
