What people say
I love this car, but it would not have been my choice if I hadn't been given the car as a present. The Volvo 940 Wentworth is the most reliable car of it's calss and for the year it is fantastic condition. It's not the best looking car, but I can't fault the reliablity, the only thing that has been done to this car in 15 years is the head gasket and that only cost £488 and that was with service and cam belt change. Once you turn the key on this car, you realise that for a 2.0 ltr engine, it has some power under the bonnet. The Turbo is only the size of a five pence piece, but when you put your foot down, be carefull or you will be in alot of trouble, because it only has a small turbo, it has next to lagg and that results in instant power. It also comes with leather interior, a/c, e/w, e/m, c/l, alarm(cat 1), heated seats etc. If you pay attention to what you are doing, this car is alot of fun to drive and it is very comfortable. It's only downside is fuel, it likes a drink and will empty a tank of fuel(75 ltrs) in about 200 miles if you floor it everywhere, but it is not too bad as long as you use the power it has sensebly.
With the GLE trim, full electrics. Driver comfort is good. Overall driving position is good.With a car of this age, everything seems to work well, Handling can be a bit exciting, especially in the wet! Rear wheel drive, a real car!
a good all round vehicle. it's reliable, comfortable & fairly cheap to run. the performance is also very good with plenty of power when needed. if you've never owned a volvo before, i would certainly recommend people try one & be pleasantly suprised.
Very comfortable to drive, accelerates quite well despite being big and heavy. Oh, and it's my moms car btw, I drive it almost more than she does. The best thing about it is the big trunk. The only really bad thing is it's apperance, it's one of the ugliest cars I can think of. It's extremely reliable, and if something breaks, it's easy to find replacement parts and they're fairly cheap compared to other brands. Most other cars I've driven have had the pedals too close to each other (my feet are pretty big), so when I hit the gas, I often hit the brakes too. But not with the Volvo. Also, the accelerator pedal is a lot easier to "feel" than on a Saab 93 for example. With that car, I can barely feel it, and therefor it's pretty hard to control. It spends a lot of gas though, which is no suprise, considering it weighs about 1,5 tonnes and has a 2 litre engine. It's also pretty long, so it takes a while to get used to. I used to have a hard time parking the thing. Overall, it's my favorite car to drive.
Good choice for a cheap, reliable family car. It's like driving a mini-tank and its longer than you realize when you look for parking. Parts can be hard to find. Overall an excellent value if you want something cheap and reliable.
