Re: before buy a 1991 Volvo 240 Wagon 200 1991

A few more things... (I have a 91 as well as others)

The door hinges will start to rust if they've been twisted around, as in an accident. Check the car over for accident damage. It can be very hard to find. But that could possibly be the reason for the rust.

I agree with the Carfax VIN# check. It will tell you a lot.

The A/C can be easily converted on the 91, to accept R134 air conditioning. It is very easy and cheap if you find the right shop or do it yourself. A/C will not be your costliest problem or concern.

As far as driving... my 240 gets about 1500 miles a week. They like that :)
