Mr b00st
i like how it's a Volvo commercial, yet it's totally making fun of the 240 for being a boring old man's car.


that looks like 2 buckets of fun. God i love Volvo.

Volvo and Fun are 2 words that never belong in the same sentence.

And the 240 was a boring old mans car.

Put any RWD car with even a decent bit of power in the snow, and it's FUN.

The 740 was my mom's first car and what she learned to drive on actually, it was a great car, we still miss it sad.gif

my sis has that volvo, and its got a pretty hefty stock turbo
Mr b00st
a 740 Turbo?


what do you mean by hefty? they made so very little power.

Mum has a 98 V70 T5, and I cant get over how much power it has. Give it a boot and you feel like your getting pushed back into the seat by some huge hand, and then the turbo kicks in
Asher
Yeah, my Dad's got a '99 S70 T5. It get's up and shits.
Mr b00st
is he looking to sell it any time soon?
Asher
Probably not, unless you have a V70R with a manual to trade.
Jordan
That guy with the LS1 is on turbobricks. cool guy.

Told yall volvos are fun.

Mr. Boost, the 740 turbo made around 165 horsepower. Thats more than your VW if I am not mistaken.
