Re: what to look for in a used volvo??? ALL

The cheapest and most reliable model in that price range would be a 940 sedan or wagon, non-turbo. Same ol' iron-block 4 that will run forever with proper basic maintenance. Bigger interior, quieter, more luxo-goodies, yet still a solid chunk of reliable transportation.

There really aren't any vices to speak of in the 940 series. The '91 940 GLE 16V can be trouble, due to the interference engine design. The Turbo models give you a lot more power for only a slight increase in operating costs. '93- models have CFC-free AC. That's about it!
