A friend of the family is selling a 1984 Volvo 240GL sedan with the 4speed+OD trans, only 85K miles, for a good price. I dont know anything about these cars, but Ive always liked them. My sister totalled her car a few months back and Im thinking that this might be a very good car for her. I know some people on this board have experience with Volvo, advice??? What are their trouble areas? I heard that they have engine bay wiring problems similar to the '85 900. The owner of this car was real anal about the maintenance, but it has hardly been driven over the last 8 years. Im sure its gonna need all its fluids flushed/filled, tune up, etc. Are Volvos about the same as saabs as far as repair/maintenance costs are concerned?
Thanks for any advice!
Josh,
1991 900 base 4door (2.1L 5 speed)
