Great big Cibié headlamps with wipers for the win.
Very cool. I dig the lower valence and Turbines, too! I’d still love to own a 240 someday. Preferably a 245 but they’re getting light on the ground here in the US midwest.
Plenty of ’em in Germany, as it seems. Which is a good thing, because sometimes only a ’77 stick-shift carbureted 245 Feuerwehrwagen with under 20,000 km on it will do.
I’m just saying, is all.
Mind you, Fahrzeugzustand: unfallfrei!
Pretty neat aside from those foul-ass hubcaps!
Agree; it wants widened stock 164 15″ steelies with the gasketted, bolt-on stainless centre caps. Or Virgo (“Volvo 240 turbo”) alloys.
It is as though these have gone from being just another old car, toward classic status. Their styling which seems timeless, helps.
Just needs a bit of tuck pointing.
I saw a gold 240 today with the personalized California license plate UGLIEST.
Pretty sure that’s an early 264.
My 240 will have a license plate “LOLVO” some day.
Yep, it’s a 264 GLE.
