1991 Volvo 740 GLD review from Belgium
"Excellent quality. Not a sport car (to say the least)"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Two diesel injection pipes had a leak (local corrosion).
Replaced brake pads, water pump and belts.
General comments?
Very reliable car.
Very poor acceleration at all speeds.
No air conditioning available at that time.
