What year is it?

Awesome - Volvo is a great car.

They are bulletproof and will go on for ever.

Still have some of the most comfortable seats too in my book.

superdog · 15 January 2019, 05:01 AM

LOVE that thing.

What a total beast.

Drive it in good health my man.

gettocard · 15 January 2019, 05:03 AM

Love it !

Chiboy · 15 January 2019, 05:57 AM

Congrats! Looks perfect for a beater (in a good way)!

If they are really bulletproof, perhaps I should consider one when I’m going to the city.

utc66 · 15 January 2019, 06:39 AM

I had several of those wagons, the babysitter crashed the first and we had to trade the second for a minivan :(. Perfect car for a musician or photographer.

66Berret · 15 January 2019, 06:45 AM

It is in good condition, 250k kilometres on the odometer. Two small rusty spots below the back window and a few small dents on the right side, but that is 'character'

We used to have this exact same car 15 years ago.

Nice Bas. Slam that thing and put some BBS mesh wheels for that cool 80s look!

brandrea · 15 January 2019, 12:23 PM

Congratulations

I have a lot of love for the Volvo 240 Bas. That was the first car my wife and I bought and it served us well for 15 years and 500 000 kms

They’re kind of quirky in a cool way, and for whatever reason they were quite Popular a lot of movies

SearChart · 15 January 2019, 05:05 PM

Thanks guys

Not a bad idea, stance it with BBS, straight pipe.

Cool ! My friend had a 240 sedan that he put >200K miles (320,000Km) on it before he gave it to his son who still has it. It's probably >400,000km by now. You can't kill those cars.

This thing is awesome, I’d keep a blow up mattress in the back and drive cross country if I had one. Would be the perfect camping/traveling car. Used to have a blast with my 2Dr Tahoe but this thing probably has more space. What are the KPGs like?

Thanks mate!

It's drinking about 10L per 100km, not super fuel efficient.
