1994 Volvo 940 Highlander Estate review from UK and Ireland
"I love it but it breaks my heart and my cheque book to fill it with petrol"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Inherent problem with rainwater seeping through the bonnet seals onto the distributor cap. New seal brought out by Volvo which cured this problem.
I've had 2 petrol sender units and 3 petrol gauges and they're still not working properly!
Interior trim suffers a bit.
General comments?
Driven 740s and 940s for 10 years and they're safest largest cars on the road today.
