This was the station wagon to end all station wagons. 2.0 liter Garrett turbocharged Bosch K-Jetronic fuel injected with sodium filled exhaust valves and a sweet suspension. Also leather seats, power windows, mirrors and locks, and a sweet 3-speed Borg Warner automatic with overdrive that was built like a tank.

An absolute blast to drive AFTER the 302 5.0L V8 swap. The 2.5L 4cyl Turbo wasn't bad though.

I've had four 240s in my driving career and am about to purchase my 5th, despite my parents' moaning and groaning. I love the look, the way they handle and I feel safe - it's built to withstand hitting a MOOSE for crissakes! I also love how you can have the heat and defrosters going on in every part of the car all at once; newer cars don't have that - you have to choose and that has never made sense to me. I live in the upper Midwest and gets quite cold, so that feature is really important to me! My dream someday is to be in the Million Mile Club. I wish I could find a brand, spanking new 240s series Volvo that has never been driven so that I could be the sole owner from the beginning. Oh well. Like everything else, born in the wrong era!

3 speed auto = 8 klms per 1ltr or 100klm to 12.5 ltrs Fun to drive in the wet as the old tyres have no traction. in a couple of yrs this old girl will be 30 & she's starting to get some nostalgic looks from oldies & unusual street cred. from the younger croud. It really wants a 5speed box & a turbo
