I know this is 10 years old now, but I'd love to have that car. Brought back a ton of memories. I had 2 of them when I was a senior in high school back in 1984. My favorite year was '79 because they had the rounded tail-lamps and not the flat ones from '76-'78. I only ever saw one 264 GLE here in the States back then. Mine were both 264 GL's with the 4-speed + OD manual and leather seats. I later found out, of course, that the PRV V-6 was kinda crap, but I loved it back then. The fan clutch was very aggressive and I loved the way it roared. Not much acceleration but it sounded like it had it. ha ha. Always loved the cute little tachometer in the middle too. Being 17 and driving a Volvo to school didn't get you many dates but I loved those cars. Solid as granite and very quiet inside for the time; you just learned to ignore the key buzzer.

[@rogermouton2273]

Had one as the family car when I was a kid. Effing V6 blew up on a road trip. I was just a kid, but I seem to recall it being a big issue and expensive to fix. It was a real limo though, quiet and rode well. Still remember the leather seats, and the rear reading lamps that just seemed to shout luxury.

[@benjaminsmith2287]

I had a 72 164 and this is an update of that car. This car really has great visibility and had a nice heft on the road. The PRV V6 was problematic and Volvo didn't use an independent rear suspension so it jiggled some in the back on bad roads, but it was still comfortable, quiet and felt like a lux car at the time. This was the flagship sedan until the 760 came in the early 80s.

[@muckle8]

The terrible french engine let Volvo down and quite a few disgruntled owners too - me included , a “ boat anchor “ drivetrain

[@garethifan1034]

@@muckle8The 2.8 Litre that came after this engine (2664cc) was much improved, as used in the last incarnation of the 760.

[@muckle8]

@Gareth Ifan. Yes it was a bit better but still a boat anchor , not in the same league as the 2.8 and 2.9 straight six engines Volvo used

[@RichieRouge206]

What a stunning, beautiful car. Of course there's going to be marks and dings on it, but the overall condition is stunning. The PRV is not that bad if looked after and it even went on with a big turbo bolted on in the Renault 25 V6 Turbo and Alpine A310/A610 sports cars from France.

[@LeGortie]

It is a very special car. Also here in Holland , you can find them here but they have a very high mileage , but this car is so clean it is defenately a must have for a Volvo Lover.

[@Philip.Magnusson]

i was about to say that, mine's an OM616 1983 its only got 350 000kms but i picked it up from a nearby field where it sat 4 years, payed the owner 50€ for it and drove it home, engine has never been a problem on it, only time it stopped was when it ran out of diesel.. :P though i know one who had a w124 250TD with 900 000kms and he never used a block heater on it when it was below -20°c. the battery dies before these engines do in cold weather!

Lambda Sond is referring to the Oxygen(Lambda) sensor that measures the oxygen level on the exhaust allowing the car’s fuel injection system to trim the air fuel ratio. Fraternity lol.

[@masonbriggs874]

My grandfather bought this actual car for his VP of sales back in the day. After he was let go the car sat in the garage for a while and eventually he gave it to my dad as his first car. -That toggle switch on the left lower part of the dash was a manual override my dad/grandpa put in for the electric fan. -Those mud guards on the back were falling off so when he brought it into the dealership their fix was using a self tapping screw and went straight through the spare tire.

[@CerealMarshmallows]

That is SO freaking cool man!!! I love these Quasi Classics!! Thank you for telling your story made my day... It was a very well cared for car and was fun to drive ;-)

[@lincolncwynar1547]

[@lincolncwynar1547]

I would be in the market to buy that model, but I am afraid of the V6 option. Im more into the '80's 240 Turbo model. Im more familiar with the mechanics of the Turbo, and the '87ish-93 240 B230 redblock cars. Ive had 6 in my lifetime, and still have a 1990 240DL since 1998 with now 150,200 miles on the clock.

[@soehnchen03]

Lambda system was found on several European cars, including several models of your 'specialty'-- Mercedes-Benz.

[@LocoAsasino]

[@njmvermont]

@CerealMarshmallows lambda sound was an emissions reduction system for volvos. it measured something about the exhaust and sent data back to the engine

Lambda Sond .. Swedish for Lambda Sensor ... *nothing* about soUnd

That Volvo looks like it're ready to transport 3 friends to go see KISS! (Detroit Rock City!)

[@Henzzman]

yes but then again the fuel consumption is compensated by the supreme comfort,ride quality,performance and size of the van and the good thing is that the consumption doesnt really change when you load up the van completely with stuff.

[@geoffdundee]

that car is so worth restoring and will be good for 500k miles if looked after

lambda sond means it has Oxygen sensor

[@Henzzman]

yup,solid diesel engines without any electronical garbage.its almost if they were built on the principle like tractor engines,which is basic,solid,reliable.the om engines work very well also with vegetable oil also and as far as i have seen work the most happiest with it compared to some other diesel engines.

[@georgesnyder5337]

I am not sure if you are joking with some of this. Volvo mechanical sunroofs, despite your assertion, break all the time (well, the cables stretch). I found it bizarre to hear you talk about how great the exterior is - and then show us a dozen spots where it is beat to hell.

[@dude...are-you-sure]

George Snyder well.... considering this car is 36+ years old and with those flaws pointed out, IMO, its pretty clean~

[@LeGortie]

Allright! Thats funny , i hope to see him one day becouse i think it did go to someone who loved these cars.

[@pingouin125]

The Peugeot Renault Volvo was an engine with an aluminum block and head produced between 1974 and 1998, 150 kg This engine was a collective project for a big sedan as Peugeot 604, Renault 30, and the Volvo 264 series II, used also with some AMC products. Unfortunately, the engine disliked Canadian winter, the alu engine contracts with the cold and failed at an early age. Curious because Renault use alu for a while. For example, Lotus picked a 1.6 l alu bloc from the R-16. De Lorean installed the PVR in his famous car. French car manufacturers developed numerous versions, some very powerful with a turbo that had from 250 to 400 hp. upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/2/25/PRVenginevolvo.jpg/800px-PRVenginevolvo.jpg en.wikipedia.org/wiki/V6_PRV_engine

sounds good, but here nobody can afford to drive a v8 every day, although "yanks" are very common here in Sweden, there is kind of like a yank culture and there are dated days when they close the streets in cities and they drive old cadillacs, chevs, buick, all those models up to a year of 1970 something, and its simply called the "cruising". i think Sweden has the biggest number of yanks in the world not including US of course. ;)
