(No problems at all except periodic brake jobs) I am interested in the new 740 series (also the 760, but less so) and would like any info netland has on these cars. My biggest question, given the new body lines, is: are these new models as 'crash-worthy' as the 240 series? The hood looks much flimsier, and my biggest love of Volvo has been the safety issue. Thanks in advance. You can replay to me via mail or via net. I will sumarize mailed responces. -- Opinions expressed are public domain, and do not belong to Lotus Development Corp. ---------------------------------------------------------------- Simcha-Yitzchak Lerner {genrad|ihnp4|ima}!wjh12!talcott!sesame!slerner {cbosgd|harvard}!talcott!sesame!slerner slerner%sesame@harvard.ARPA
