The first car was the 760 GLE, released in July 1982 and initially available only with the 2.8-litre V6 engine.第一辆车是760角,于1982年7月发表的初步只限2.8公升V6发动机. A 2.4-litre turbo diesel followed in January 1983 and a 2.3-litre petrol turbo six months later.2.4公升柴油涡轮遵循1983年1月和2.3公升汽油涡轮半年以后. All were called 760.所有被称为760.
The range remained much the same until the 1987 facelift.范围大致相同,直到1987年仍然整容. A year before, a new group of cheaper models had joined the 760s and were called 740.一年前,一批新的型号已加入760s便宜,被称为740. Engines were either a 2.3-litre, a 2.3-litre turbo or a 2.4-litre diesel turbo.要么一个引擎2.3公升,2.3公升涡轮或2.4公升柴油涡轮.

WHAT YOU GET 什么才叫 
If a big car is what you want, then the 740 or 760 may well fit the bill.如果是你想要的大轿车,则可能适合740或760条. Most cars are well specified, with standard equipment like central locking and electric windows; many have leather trim, air conditioning and heated seats as well.大部分汽车都指明,标准装备电动窗、中央锁;有许多皮革修剪、空调、暖议席. They have a good name for reliability and also for crash worthiness, so it's fair to say a 700-series Volvo is a safe bet, all-round.他们有一个好名字,也毁可靠性行驶,所以,可以说是700系列沃尔沃是打赌,全方位.
WHAT YOU PAY 您付出
Volvos generally hold their value well and the 740 and 760 are no exception.富豪普遍进行了740、760和价值也没有例外. As even the youngest examples will be at least 10 years old, they will usually have a high mileage.因为即使是最小的例子将至少有10岁,他们通常都很高哩. Therefore it makes sense to buy the most recent example you can afford with as much service history as the previous owner can muster.因此有道理,最近的例子你买得起并尽可能为服务历史上拥有可集中. Price-wise, these cars are best valued on an individual basis.价格上,这些车都是以个人身份获得最佳价值.
WHAT TO LOOK FOR 寻找什么
These cars are, in the main, reliable, but Volvo parts aren't cheap and these cars are complex, so make sure the car you're looking at needs minimal repairs.这些车,主要是可靠的,但所费不赀,沃尔沃轿车零件复杂、这样使你看车需要修理极小.
Both turbocharged diesel and petrol engines can be easily damaged by a former owner failing to let the engine idle down sufficiently (30 to 60 seconds was always advised) after a brisk run.无论柴油及汽油发动机涡轮增压容易损坏前任老板拖欠闲置下来足以让引擎(30至60秒,一直宜)之后活跃逃. Check the exhaust for excess smoke and, above all, look for service records to prove it's been properly maintained.检查尾气排放过量黑烟,首先找服务纪录证明,这是适当的维修.
All these cars are well protected against corrosion (think of those Swedish winters) but check the door bottoms, bonnet, boot lid or tailgate just to be sure.这些车均能腐蚀(想想那些冬天瑞典),但检查门擦屁股,头盖,行李箱盖或栏板只是要肯定.

(approx) An exhaust system costs up to £125.(大约)排气系统造价高达125英镑. A clutch assembly will be around £140, whilst a new radiator will be around £140.大会将围绕一个离合器140镑,而将新散热器140英镑左右.

ON THE ROAD 在路上
The petrol-powered turbo was always the performance 760 (faster and more sporty than the V6).汽油动力涡轮总是表现760(更快和更潇洒比V6导). If you're after a quick car with good handling, it's the one you'll want.如果你有好车后,迅速办理,也就会想要一个. The other cars in these ranges all hold the road well and a soft ride is also a strong point.其他车都在这些靶场举行,软坐好道也是一个支点. Don't expect sporty behaviour from any of these cars though; that's not what the 760 and 740 are about.潇洒不期望这些车虽然来自任何行为;这可不是什么约有760和740.
OVERALL 总体
Definitely a car you buy with your head and all the better for it.同一辆车一定买你的头,一切美好. They really are sensible, these cars, with the exception of the fuel bills a V6 760 will bring you.他们真的是明智的,这车,除了燃料法案带来了760V6导你. As comfortable family cars that are built to last, they take some beating.作为舒适的家庭轿车,去年建成,他们采取一些再打.
