The V90 -merely a renamed 960 wagon- is powered by Volvo’s 2,922 cc inline-six gasoline engine  from the B6304 family. Late September, the daily driver had around 440,000 km (273,400 miles) on the clock.

Once upon a time, this was a Volvo 960 wagon. A big part of it, anyway.

The Volvo’s overall length is 6.10 m (20 ft) and it’s also powered by a 2.9 liter six-cylinder, good for 204 DIN-hp.

The next picture I’ll post of a Volvo this long shows an FM or FH 4×2 tractor.
