I didn't know about teh Volvo tred, Svenn!

My old 245T. 1984, intercooled, cloth seats, couldn't find a manual, sorry. Bought in Ballard, yah sure! You couldn't move in to that neighborhood without an old Volvo - there were 5 240s on our block.

A nice old guy with dementia plowed into it sitting in front of our house and totaled it. They took away his license. Sad.

So we bought an 850T wagon after that.

94 850T 225hp
much torks
Porsche-designed cylinder head
fun to drive
great seats
high speed highway cruiser
you can sleep in the back
solid and safe
camp, boats, furniture, haul, bikes - we did everything in this car.

When these were new, they out-hauled, out-towed, out-handled, out-mileaged, out-comforted, out-safety-ed, and out-accelerated a new Mustang GT V8.

vvv For this reason, I bought an Audi A4 quattro Avant..

White Block is such a nice motor

240 Yah Sven!

My old mechanic Odvar in Seattle had many interesting cars (V8 Studebaker Hawk, Volvo 544), and he once gave me a ride in his 242. Plain Jane 242, red, not really shiny. Inside was a 302 Ford and 5 speed. Virgo wheels, sat low, down slightly in front. Went like stink.
