Looking for used wagon with good visibility and reliability
I have absolutely loved my 1982 Volvo 240DL wagon since my parents gave it to me over 20 years ago.
I have been blessed with a grandchild and my family feel a newer car will provide more reliability and safety for this precious one. I have to agree on the reliability factor as repairs need to be done very 4-6 months it seems. My daughter, his mother, is afraid of the car breaking down when he's in it.
What I love most about this car is the visibility. I am astounded at the lack of visibility in todays cars! How do car makers get away with this?
I'm hoping Volvos retained their excellent visibility for a few years anyway and would appreciate knowing what years those were. Once I get a list of Volvo wagons with good visibility then I'll look into reliability.
I would like to stay with the wagon to have space for my garden soil etc., and also because the hatchback is better for my back than leaning into a trunk.
Thank you for your help.
