1995 Volvo 850 GLT review from North America
"Safe high performance bargain"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing has gone wrong with the car. It runs perfect.
General comments?
The car is very quick off the line, but it struggles when it gets around 95-100. Awsome car. I'm sold on volvo's for life. Interior is good, engine runs strong. I blows the 1989 740 GLE 16 valve away with no problem. It even beat a 1972 164 E.
Can't say enough good things about the car. My best buy ever.
