Greetings:

How many miles does your 740 have on it and what is the most documented miles for a 740 (non-turbo) and a 740 turbo? I currently have 420,300 on my 1988 740 gle wagon (non-turbo/AW-70 A.T.) 359,250 on my other 1989 wagon (same as above) and 235,000 on my last wagon (same as above), no rebuilds. They all run excellent, get great gas mileage, have durable paint jobs and are a pleasure to fix. My Volvos get nothing but the best products including premium fuels, and no abuse. 98% HWY miles, and 25-28mpg, with an average speed of 80mph. Could I get another 400,000 or so miles out of them? They do not burn any oil, and the spark plugs (NGK V-power) are replaced every 10,000 miles (exhibit normal firing no problems)What say you? Please all experiences and or feed back are welcomed.


Best Regards
