1995 Volvo 940 review from North America
"The best bang for the buck I have ever purchased!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The driver seat is pretty worn out (expected for this mileage). Electrical issues with window controls. Replaced alternator belt at 290000. The power is not impressive around town.
General comments?
Incredible car for the money. I picked this car up at an auction for $800 and I put $100 in it. That included: spark plugs, wires, cap & rotor and an air filter. It boggles my mind that it runs so well for this mileage! It gets 20 in the city and around 26 on trips. I am so impressed that I am buying a 960 with 177000 miles this week.
