1992 Volvo 940 Reviews, Pricing & Specs

It was old and had its issues, but it was a good first car that drove. It was slow, the fuel gage didn't work, AC didn't work, sunroof broke and leaked, and sometimes the doors wouldn't open, but the engine and transmission always worked perfectly. It was my first car and it got me around alright. I bought it for $1,000 and after 3 years, traded it in for a 2006 Pontiac Grand Prix.Mar 31, 2014

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.Apr 03, 2008
