Nope, the odo is electronically controlled and goes forward even if you reverse the car. But they normaly need repairing after 25 - 30 years so in this nothing is working in the dash. The engine is originally equipped with a Bosch L Jetronic injection, not with a carb and also with an electronic ingnition with flywheel sensor. I think this is also gone. And the M47 Gearbox is not the strongest, maybe the reason for driving only in reverse.

940 never came with that engine setup, its been converted from injection to carburator with a earlier B230 manifold and carb, probably from volvo 240/740.

I don't think it's much to be proud of that they handle cars like this. These don't look like this just because they're old, they just have no concept of taking care of machines. Not even the most basic maintenance... seats won't break because they're old. I agree with using what's old, also for minimal impact - as you say - but in this case it's not about being smart

Buenas tardes: En primer lugar felicitarte por tu canal y decirte que me gusta mucho tu contenido. Tengo una duda que me gustaría resolver: ¿ porqué los vehiculos allí están en tan malas condiciones ? Es decir, entiendo que no poseen los mismos recursos que en otros paises y por lo tanto es mucho mas dificil mantener un vehículo en buenas condiciones, pero el hecho de que todos y cada uno de ellos estén casi desguazados me tiene muy intrigado, ¿ que razón hay para que lleguen a estar tan destrozados ?, se compran asi ya? Es por las carreteras? Falta de mantenimiento? Malos mecánicos? Un saludo y gracias!.
