Volvo 144

Despite their reputation for solidity and durability the 70's were a bad time for Volvo, several models were blighted with excessive corrosion problems - more to do with the use of cheap russian steel rather than the actual manufacturers build quality. This very late 144 has done well to survive, particularly as it's the less useful Saloon version. The car was introduced in 1966, and that rear end styling from the B pillar backwards remained almost unchanged when the replacement 240 saloon was discontinued in 1993.
