Chris Wilson Posted October 25, 2010 Author Share Posted October 25, 2010 I couldn't possibly comment. The most desirable would be a two door 240 series turbo, but they were never sold in the UK and you'd have to import one. B23 engined 7 series are good, and for a smooth engine and very last of the RWD models look at S90's and V90's. The same six cylinder engine was in the very last of the 9 series as well.

dangerous brain Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 I had a 940 2.3 HPT. It was a right hoot. 7 seats, it was no slouch and very cheap power upgrades available for it. Funny as ferk when I did a donut in the car park when the local muppets were badly trying to do burn outs in their saxo's.

Chris Wilson Posted October 25, 2010 Author Share Posted October 25, 2010 I have posted this before, but for any Volvo fans it's a cool engine.Note the supercharger belt flap though, that would be off I reckon, in extended usage, or break. http://www.gatesgarth.com/volvo_dyno/dyno_pull.mpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thorin Posted October 26, 2010 Share Posted October 26, 2010 A couple of mates of mine used to run modified Volvo 760 Turbo's, excellent fun, and I still have a hankering for one now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dangerous brain Posted October 26, 2010 Share Posted October 26, 2010 are they good enough in the winter? Good enough for what exactly? Narrow decent winter tyres and they'll be as good as any car is my guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
