	Volvo 240/260
		Volvo celebrated its 50th Anniversary in 1977 and released a limited edition version of the 240, the 244DL "anniversary" car.
		During 1977 Volvo also won British awards for car safety and in the USA the 240 was selected to develop guidelines for US safety standards.
		I am sure the Volvo 200 will be seen on the roads for many years to come and one day I expect to see it listed as one of the great classic cars of the great era of motoring.

	Volvo 240, 242, 244 & 245 Forum -
		I recently bought a 240 wagon at a reduced price because the head gasket and water pump were leaking coolant down the passenger side of the engine block.
		Now to be serious, I have two volvos, one is a 1989 244dl (for those who don't know that is the one with the B23) the engine runs great but the tranny is shot, and i can't for the love of me find another one.

	Volvo 240/260
		One 240 owner complained to Volvo UK after being told by a dealership that the only answer was to replace the reflectors, which are not cheap.
		In a letter from Volvo UK, the 240 owner was told that the life expectancy of the headlight unit was about 5 years.
		The other common problem with this model Volvo was that the front nearside tyre suffered excessive wear on its outside edge.

	Volvo 200 series - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Volvo 240 was and is Volvo's best-selling car and, from 1975 until 1982, the only Volvo imported to the United States automobile market.
		The Volvo 240 and 260 Series was introduced in the autumn of 1974, and was initially available as six variations of the 240 Series (242L, 242DL, 244DL, 244GL, 245L and 245DL) and two variations of the 260 Series (264DL and 264GL).
		Volvo increased the displacement to 2.8 liters in 1980 with the introduction of the B28F and B28E engines, which was prone to premature camshaft wear, lasting approximately a mere 120,000 miles.

	Volvo 240
		Volvo roept speciale afdelingen in het leven met als doel deze voorschriften in een en dezelfde auto te verwezenlijken.
		De eerste folder van Volvo Nederland had op de voorkant een groene Volvo 144, met daaronder de tekst: 'In 1966 introduceerden wij de Volvo 144, nu 8 jaar later introduceren wij de Volvo 244'. Ik denk dat deze Volvo, die op de styling van de 144 is gebaseerd, de Volvo bij uitstek is geweest.
		Volvo heeft hier mijns inziens de eerste basis gelegd hun auto's meer dynamisch te maken (onderstelwijzigingen), waardoor er meer plezier in het rijden ontstaat.

		Volvo advises you to follow the inspection program at 5,000 mile or 8,000 km intervals which is outlined in the "Warranties and Maintenance Records Manual".
		Each Volvo has a catalytic converter and must use only unleaded gasoline (as specified on the instrument panel and by a label near the filler inlet).
		Mixture of 50 percent Volvo anti-freeze type C (blue-green) or corresponding and 50 percent water should be used.

		Since most Volvos are "boxy but safe" - shaped with aerodynamics somewhat similar to that of a brick, and they're Swedish...the discussion group focused on Volvos was named "SwedishBricks".
		Many of us own 240 series cars, and the discussions on the mailing list tend to focus on maintenance and performance enhancements for these cars first built in the early '70s and on through the early '90s.
		Robin Williams in Garp drove an older Volvo, a PV 544, Roger Moore as the Saint drove an 1800, with the beautiful bull horns of the early English-built cars, and re-issue of the Saint featured a new C-70.

		A 1983 240 Turbo and a 1991 740 Turbo.
		This is a problem on early to mid 80's Volvos, which means the 240 Turbo's and, of course, the Harness for the Turbo's is 2-3 times more expensive than a normally aspirated 240(Think $900 or so).
		Volvos are relatively heavy cars to push around with 115 hp (vs. 160 for turbo w/ intercoler).

	Volvo 240 e-code headlight upgrade
		By then, the 240 was outdated and was slated to go extinct in the 1986 model year.
		A rumor about Volvo, that if true is really quite remarkable, is that Volvo continued to make the 240 without profit to keep their employees with jobs.
		Presumably to cut costs, the U.S. 240 now had the European front end sheet metal (why have a version for the rest of the world, and one for North America?), which meant the headlamps now needed to be "euro-sized" yet conform to US DOT codes.

		Since I've never owned a Volvo I am curious to see if this vehicle looks like as good of a deal as I think it is. I understand that the 240-series cars will routinely deliver 250,000 miles if properly maintained.
		I was very unhappy with the stability and shape of my car afterwards the Saturn went through the Drivers headlight and finally exited through the rear drivers-side door coming in close enough to break the turn-signal switch off and tear my seat off the bolts and taking both drivers-side doors with it.

		I agree with the other reviewers who say the Bentley is the One To Get; however the Haynes 240 book often has more details in its step-by-step instructions and makes fewer assumptions about the reader's experience.
		I'm finding that the Haynes Volvo 240 series manual is handy for cross refrence, using Chilton primarily.
		As a result, this manual is objectionably weak at covering the electronic fuel injection and ignition systems found on most 1983 and newer US model Volvo's - which just happens to be one area of particular interest to most owners - what to do when the "check engine" light comes on.
