A 164 is a bad engineering flaw. It's a nice loking car that Volvo never developed properly. The engine is to heavy and it makes the car handle like a pregnant hippo. The rear cylinders overheat because of poor cooling. The Automatic version is prone to eating gear boxes, the non ovedrive cars are undergeared. Personally the only version I'd consider is a fuel injection overdrive car.

It's an old man who smokes cigars kind of a car.

Regards


Pete
