Welcome to my car. She's an 89 Volvo 240GL, five speed manual with the obligatory 2.3 litre four cylinder and yummy blue interior.

This is how she was from 1989 until late 2008 when I purchased her from some young blokes in Sydney who had had this vehicle in their family for seven years. Apart from the "speed holes" in the boot and the wonky number plates she was unmodified.

I do really like the classic lines and stance of the 240's, I just liked the idea of the classic lines and a lowered stance with 20 inch wheels better. So now instead of 14 by about 2 inch wheels she now has 20x8 inch "ROH Blackhawkes" with custom front shocks and truncated king springs.

^This is^ what she looked liked just after the application of said wheels and before guard rolling and window tinting. And after window tinting below.

 These are some bad quality pictures of the other 200 series volvo's I have owned.

The red one was an 82 244, standard excepting the suspension and 19 inch wheels. The white one was an 83 240, standard excepting the suspension, the 17 inch wheels.......oh and the 5 litre V8 which I ruined the car with by installing.

 Just some pictures of my car with my mates 71 Kombi which I think looks horn!
