i want. Sorry i know i always copy you but i have only had sensible car's since my s13 and it is possible to run one of these on a budget. Plus no turbo to go wrong. Has a comedy element to it aswell. I said i would paint it yellow and sit outside my girlfriends work beeping my horn and drifting cos she said she would never get in it. Bonus!!!

If you wanna be different go and get a 2.0 DOHC Sierra
Weld the diff, or fit an LSD off an XR4x4. More power and torque than the volvo too
yeah sierra is a good idea but wont the insurance be more? I also have limited drive space to keep a car off the road if something breaks. Everyone knows sierra's can drift but i volvo would be much more of a suprise.
around 8-10 years ago a neighbour had one of these, lad was only 18 at the time, fitted a triumph quad exit exhaust sounded mint for a Volvo lol. rumour has it he fitted a V8.
would the gastley volvo 480 1.7 Turbo (i think) engine fit?
Well it drifts its harder than the 200 but it goes sidways and stays there just need to get the feel of the car as its been 13months since i last had a car sidways.
As its got no tubby need to be high up the revs and havnt got used to that yet.

woo...remember what clarkson did to his one on top gear....
u on about the £100 car challenge where hammond had a rover 216GTi and may had an audi 80?
if so clarkson used a volvo 760GLE in that episode,watched it the other day. Any other volvos RWD as i quite like volvos (id like a Vxx estate, or an 840 estate.im not fussy)
i was looking at a 340 (1.7l) of these a few months ago, always loke the idea of a trampdrift of to play and learn in!! my parents used to have 1 when i was a kid never went wrong!
