helllo all, my name is brad, i am going to be getting a 1991 volvo 240 5spd with 170k miles for $800 from a buddy soon so i thought it would be cool to talk to a few other volvo people and see what the scene is all about.

for any of you who have seen any of the "mischief" DVD's series, i am getting the car from someone who works with those guys, i am friends with all those clowns (check out there forum at teckeast if your a fan) . never had a high end car like this before so i was just looking to find out some more info on them, what are there strong points and weaknesses, is there anything i shouldn't do, like i know with my old car (a '93 saturn) we could never do burnouts cuz the diff pins couldn't take it and would get all ****ed up .

so sorry for any stupid questions, and bring on the flames for the newb.

 

Welcome to the forum nice to see you.The 240's are tanks just make sure the timing belt was replaced at 150,000 miles if it wasn't replace it. Good luck
