1990 780 Turbo Bertone...
 
Found one for 1,000 dollars.

Needs paint and a turbo, otherwise in great shape, original wheels, nice interior except for a cracked dash cover..
No rust, no dents or dings. Marron exterior, White interior. The turbo went south, the shop pulled it..owner backed out of the repair...shop took possession of the car legally.

Does not run due to the turbo being out of it..

Good car? Good Daily driver?

Are parts availalble? It has all the emblems and such..really cool looking car!

The parts are $$$$ for everything but the motor. Body wise totally different parts from the 740 thats why so much.

Thanks Tech.

I do know it has the B230FT, with the Turbo+ or whatever they called...I think it's a boost controller?

The turbo plus is a Boost controller is a way yes it gives it more boost and a little more power. It is rare to find one.

So was it a good car?

Was it quick?

Were there alot made with the B230FT+?

Car was considered Volvo's bas**** child. Parts pretty expensive. Not all that many made.
