1990 Volvo 740 Turbo 4dr Sedan
0 of 0 people found this review helpful
I was contemplating last year to be tied down on a lease or finance to a new less expensive car such as the Protege5, but I ended up looking at a sweet 1990 740 Turbo at my local Volvo dealership. Even though it's more than 12 years old, rust has not set in (and I live in Canada), the engine is beautiful (if not a bit tractor-like), and the interior is sweet. Go find one today-cheap, sweet, and reliable...not to mention faaaaaast!!!

I bought my Volvo 13 years ago and it still looks and runs like new (almost). Have had periodic minor mechanical problems and service/parts are relativeltexpensive, but nothing major after 170,000 miles.

I bought my 745T as a relatively quick,& extremely safe vehicle for my family. Quality of the interior is standard1990's Volvo-with cheap plastic that breaks easily, no cup holders, but the best seats in the industry! Records on my car, had shown that it had to be towed to the dealer twice with 25,000 and 27,000 miles on her... Unforgivablefor a car whose sticker price was $29,356! Records show the previous ownerspent over $5,000 in repairs before I got her. I do my own work, & LOVE Volvos-but you need to either know how to fix the quirks, or have a pocket of cash to have the dealer fix what goeswrong. (Not as bad as the 450 pagemanual on how to fix the problems on theJaguar XJ-S...)
The Perfect Car...Almost!

This 1989 Volvo 740 Turbo wagon was purchased with 138,000 miles on it. It's definitely the most reliable car my mother has ever bought. The car now has about 180,000 miles on it as of 12/3/02 and it still is incredibly reliable and runs great! The only work done to it is: replacement of both front and rear windshield wiper motors, alternator, gaskets and seals on the engine and transmission. A super reliable car! This car is quick too...0-60 in 8 seconds. Did I mention, you can easily get one of these car for CHEAPER than a Honda or Toyota?
Great in New Zealand too

I bought our 740 GLE wagon as a cheap runabout with an increadible 440,000 km on the clock. (It was a former Volvo country service car). I can now see why people love these cars. Our BMW sedan stays in the garage and this gets used as the family car weekends now. The kids love the back row of seats. Incredibly practical round Wellington which is a tight, hilly city with the boxy corners and great steetring. We like it so much we tried out a new one. Not as good! Suspect Volvo has lost the plot under Ford.
