These cars are quite expensive here in Sweden, prices went from 6 000 to 14 000 in just 2 years. 8 years ago all of my friends had a 240, 740 or 940 but since swedish roads gets salted during winter, every car rusts and so my friends bout newer cars. One great thing, when our cars turn 30 years there's no more tax and controls will be done with 2 years apart, insted of every year💪

As a Swede, watching people dream about getting a Volvo and complaining about parts being hard to find is actually hilarious to me. Not in the derogatory way, but mostly because over here it's so goddamn easy to find a good RWD Volvo 2/7/940 for less than $1000, and parts are absolutely abundant at car depots and junkyards. I've owned three Volvos so far and I've trouble imagining I'll ever get something else!

You cannot rationally state conclusively that the "Volvo" prolonged her life (you can't save a life, you can only prolong one), especially not by comparison with other cars. You have no control against which to compare, and you can't even quote statistics because 83% of statistics are misleading.

Given that just about one hundred billion (one hundred thousand million if you're British) people have lived on this mudball over all of human history, and not one of them has ever exhibited any sign of being immortal, the likelihood of human immortality is less than 1:100,000,000,000. That's close enough to be called a certainty for most purposes. Then you add in our current understanding of genetics in general and telomeres in specific and those odds get more extreme. We won't even get into the wholly irrational proposal of "time machines", which can only be thought of it terms of "magic", since due to obvious reasons they cannot be thought of within the context of real-world physics. There are many other aspects upon which I won't touch here. The notion of human immortality is, quite simply, ridiculous and insupportable.

The only damage I took was a broken nail. It took only 30000₽ to make it run again even though the parts has different colors. When I had a turbo 945 which I had to sell due to money problems. It was such a piece of a machine!

My charming wife sold me on Swedish cars so we bought/drove a series of redblocks. Two 240 sedans, three 240 wagons, (the '85 had a B21FT), a '91 740 wagon, a 240 sedan again and then, finally, 1 '93 940 sedan. These are all Canadian spec, mostly manual till the later models. Most built in Halifax. Forever cars.

I cooked a Ford Focus RS in the mountain passes a few days ago. I was in a 1992 240, and every corner I exited, a glance in the rear view showed him getting further and further away. It may not be the fastest car, but the dumbfounded looks I get when I rip that car around as quickly as I do is priceless. I'll never sell this car.

@nobodynoone25002 жыл бұрын
FWD had been pushed by other companies as being "safer" and "easier to drive". When really it was just "cheaper to manufacture" and "more fuel efficient". With AWD, either a rwd style or fwd style layout can work, and volvo with with a opposed fwd type. This enabled better packaging, and lighter weight. Companies like BMW continued with RWD purely as a function of legacy (ahem, "Luxury") marketing and lazy engineering, perfering to complicate everything else instead.

If you're from Finland buy one that is older than 1987 (not possible) or buy one that is not "Katalysator" eg. has no catalytic converter. This will make it easier to pass inspection when you're planning on modifying the car. Engine options are B230E, B200E, B230G or B200G. E-series engines (B230E/ET, B200E) are the good in that they're typically cheaper to buy than the somewhat rare G-series. E-series engines have a mechanical fuel injection which is worse for modifying than the electric fuel injection of the F-series. F series (B230F/FT/FX/FD etc.) are to be avoided as they have catalytic converters and thus make is harder to convert to turbo or modify in other ways. You're going to have trouble at the inspection if you don't know what you're doing. Remember one thing about inspection and Volvos. Emissions class (vähäpäästöinen/ei vähäpäästöinen(katalysaattorittomat)) is dependent on what the car originally came with so when you put a B230FT in a body that came with B200E for example it's easier because the original engine puts it into the "ei vähäpäästöinen"-category. Note that if you convert an B230F engine to turbo it's harder because the F-engines are in a stricter emissions class.
