	BBC - h2g2 - Volvo 300 Series
		The Volvo 300 series was originally a DAF design, as was the Volvo 66 and the later 400 series.
		When the 1,136,689th and last Volvo 340 rolled of the line at Born in the Netherlands on 13 March, 1991, it marked the end of an era; it was the last of over 1.1 million rubber belt drive cars manufactured at the plant.
		The 2.0 was a Volvo unit from a 240.

		The Volvo 300 series was a rear wheel drive automobile sold as both a hatchback and (later) a conventional saloon from 1976-1991.
		The 300 series was unusual in having the gearbox mounted over the rear axle (which was of the De Dion tube type), with the 360 having the propeller shaft enclosed in a "torque tube".
		Volvo purchased a one-third share in DAF in 1973, increasing to a three-quarters stake in 1975; the DAF company's name was changed to Volvo Car BV that year.

		The Volvo 343 was important for Volvo as it entered the company into the compact market segment in 1976.
		The 360 models originated from the 340 models but the new designation gave the vehicles, and their higher specified equipment level, a stronger profile within the Volvo range.
		Bougicord HT leads, NGK spark plugs, Bilstein springs and dampers, Powerflex poly bushes, Nordic suspension components, Volvo and Nordic service items are the beginning of a growing list of Volvo parts.

		It was nearly identical to the Volvo 440, apart from the rear.
		Volvo abandoned this similarity when the 400 series was replaced with the S40 and the V40.
		The Volvo 460 had a 1.7-litre Renault engine at launch, carried over from the Volvo 300 Series; this was available between 1989 and 1992.

		Another problem was that, while Volvo dealers in the USA were keen to have the P900, the negotiators on both sides (correctly) guessed that the USA's safety and emission regulations would keep the P900 out.
		Volvo's opinion being that car buyers were becoming less fashion-minded and more rational, Volvo indicated their preference for the de Vries model, but as minority shareholders they refrained from imposing their will outright on DAF.
		And so, three years after Volvo acquired their first share in DAF and one year after they took full control, the practical yet distinctive 2½-box notchback shape of the Volvo 340, made in Born, was introduced to the world.

	Volvo Adventures, New Zealand - S60R
		Volvo's latest R offerings, its new, all-wheel-drive versions of both the S60 sedan and V70 Estate wagon, are very much wolves of the frozen steppes wearing sheep camouflage.
		Volvo claims the S60R's sprinting abilities for 0-100 km/h are 5.7 seconds, with the heavier V70 Estate wagon a mere two-tenths slower at 5.9 seconds.
		Volvo's new six-speed manual makes its debut in the S60R, and its shift mechanism is one of the best I have encountered, way ahead of both those of the Audi S4 and BMW M3.

	VOLVO SWEDEN AND SWEDISH CARS HISTORY \| DIRECTORY OF MOTOR MANUFACTURERS \| VEHICLE DESIGN AND TECHNOLOGY \| CONCEPT CARS
		Even at this early stage in truck development, Volvo trucks were built to a very high standard in terms of their reliability and quality, especially compared to non-Swedish trucks, which had not been designed with the poor Swedish climate and poor Swedish roads in mind.
		By 1964 Volvo had opened a new production plant in Torslanda, Sweden capable of producing up to 200,000 cars a year and by 1966 the Volvo 140 family was introduced firstly as a saloon and later as an estate, helping to cement a family market that Volvo was rapidly claiming as its own.
		The Volvo 240 range replaced the 140 with even higher levels of safety and quality and was joined by the smaller Volvo 340 models from Holland to take Volvo’s sales past the 4 million mark by the end of the 1970’s.

		Volvo's tests show the V70 R sprinting from a standing start to 60 miles per hour in a sports car like 5.6 seconds, although when equipped with a five-speed automatic that time span expands to 7.4 seconds.
		Volvo worked with Ohlins Racing, a Swedish suspension specialist, and shock absorber manufacturer Monroe to develop the system that measures rotational speed and vertical movement of each wheel, steering wheel deflection and velocity, cornering rate, engine torque and brake intervention.
		The engine generates 300 hp at 5500 rpm and 295 pound-feet of torque, with peak torque available all the way from 1950 to 5250 rpm, so there's plenty of grunt for passing situations, or for weaving around the cones on the autocross course.

		It's true Volvo merged with Ford in 1997 or 1998 I believe, and it's also true many people won't buy their cars now that they are owned by an American company with distinctly different ideas on how to built a car.
		Ford most likely realized that saftey is Volvo's callsign, and it would have been foolish to strip them of their callsign with a radical ideological change.
		Volvo as a maker of reliable rugged cars reached it's peak in the late 70's and early 80's, mainly with the 240 series.

		They were built in the DAF factories in the low countries rather than at Volvo’s Swedish plants.
		It took some time for the Volvo standards of rust protection to make it to the 300 series, and even the late ones were more rust-prone than a traditional Volvo, however this one was in pretty good nick!
