wickey ◊ 2006-02-10 22:26	I think it is 264 - what have you guys (Kowalski, Junkman & Misteraverage) against poor old volvos??
antp ◊ 2006-02-10 22:30	I guess they do not like good cars with a box-shape
BeanBandit ◊ 2006-02-10 22:41	Unlike me. I am not a big friend of these modern cars, which, to be honest, DO look like suppositories.
wickey ◊ 2006-02-12 13:11	weel, the fact is, that during 17 years of production (1975-1992), there was no mortal accident in USA in Volvo 2-series but I like more 7-Series and 9-series.. The new Volvos (Fords) are just average cars..
Exiv96 ◊ 2006-02-12 17:34	How do you know it's a 264 and not a 244 ? Both cars had the same headlights for the US market. And the wheels don't look upmarket.
BeanBandit ◊ 2006-02-12 17:53	264 has the chrome grille, 244 has plain black one.
wickey ◊ 2006-02-12 20:43	not all 244s have the black one - it seems like 264 because of bonnet length + shape of sidemarkers. The long "nose" on 244s was started in combination with different sidemarkers
