Good Evening, Were the 1985 Wagons better than the 1989's (ie in Paint workmanship and interior materials? Is it me or did volvo seem to slack off towards the end in this department? What are the pros and cons concerning purchasing an 85'or 89? or 89' over an 85'? I personally prefer the look of the 85's over the 89's. I test drove an 88 wagon some months back but noticed some differences in building material from my fathers 1980 240 wagon.
