1991 Volvo 740 Standard review from North America
"Still a Thrill"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The electrical system hasn't been perfect; the light-out-light is on even though no lights are out.
Seats wore badly, but expected because it's an old car.
Exhaust leak, but common on all cars of this year.
General comments?
I really love my Volvo.
It gets up to speed.
Sound System is good.
Engine is as solid as it gets.
