THIS CAR IS THE ONE
LUXURY FEATURE IT E NT HAVE
While many of today s presti
gious European sedans ofrei^fa-—
-uor-ahU. performance and han
dling, they also feature something
far more substantial.
Astronomical stacker prices.
But the Volvo 760 GLE is a
notable exception.
Inside you'll find room for five'
adults. An advanced climate con
trol system that completely
changes the interior air every
twelve seconds. And orthopedical
ly designed front seats to help
keep your mind off your Sack.
And on the road.
_And to help keep the car on the
road, a unique rear suspension sys
tem flattens out the bumps. And
"provides mOre "“predictable Han
dling in wet or slippery conditions.
It all adds up to the finest, most
comfortable Volvo ever built.
So before you purchase a presti
gious European sedan with an out
rageous European price tag, come
in and test drive a gas engine or
Turbo Diesel* Volvo 760 GLE.
Only then will you truly appre
ciate the difference between a lot
of money spent. And money well
spent.
