Thoughts on Volvo 940? Posted by Rod [Email] ![]() ![]() |
I am looking at a replacement for my rusting 240 wagon as a winter car to help keep my 95 9kCSE in as good shape as it is now. I really like the look of the 240's but the prices are way too high for what they are - at least here in Ohio. They must be attaining classic car status I guess.
Anyway, I'm looking at a 940 wagon as an alternative (I want a wagon for its hauling capacity - the 9000 is good, but still not as good as a Volvo wagon). I've searched the archives and, Noel, I know you had problems with yours, but I'm hoping that was just an unfortunate experience. Anyone else own one of these?
Also - turbo vs non-turbo? The non-turbo has to be dog slow - 114hp in a tank like that. No worse than my 240 but at least that's a stick - I think the 940's are all autos. On the other hand I wonder how much the turbo adds to relaibility issues? I've never had problems with the turbos themselves on any of my Saabs, but I've had BPC valve,ECU and vacuum hose problems.
