If you want a car that is reliable, safe, has great low-end torque, a kicking turn radius and looks classy to boot, the the 240 is the car you are looking for.
Favorite car ever

This is my favorite car ever. It's closing in on 300,000 miles and shows no signs of quitting. The paint (black) is incredibly durable; still shiny after 15 years in New England. While some argue about winter driving, I've found it outstanding as long as you fit snow tires. I maintain it "by the book" and have never had anything fail. I do most of the maintenance myself; it's very easy to work on. I like the way it performs and drives.

My wife bought this volvo at 4 years of age and 40k... it now (2003) has 142k and is only driven 5000 miles/year. I don't worry about it at all and it costs me next to nothing to service and maintain... maybe $600/year at Say Ray's in Palo Alto. Im looking now to buy a 1994 940, the last of the great ones....but I think Volvo has gone down the tubes now that GM has put its greedy hands around volvos throat. Wouldnt buy anything newer than 1996. Swedes, please buy Volvo car back!

Compare this! The Volvo 240 has the trunk space of a car larger than itself. It has the safety of a car much larger than itself. It has the freeway handling of a car much sportier than itself. And in parking lots it has a turning radius that is smaller than even a small car! It is a combination that cannot be compared to any other car. The Volvo 240 is truly in a class by itself. And that classic understated distinctive European styling. Heater warms up fast in winter, and heated seats are a treat. You don't need more than 4 cylinders when you are in line at drive-thru food, the bank, stoplights, parking lots, coasting down hills. Those things comprise 80 percent of daily driving.

This volvo is a very reliable ride though the performance is 100% terrible, it weighs so much that it can not accelerate or corner on par with any other car. But volvo's are not performers, they are life savers, and the 240DL is a tank. If all that you are looking for a safe and reliable car and you could care less about performance and looks, this car is for you.
