What's wrong with that? They're both correct...

240 is the series. 242 is a 2-door. 244 is a 4-door sedan and 245 is the wagon...5-door. 240 applies to all three models...in a general way...

This is the famed Volvette from T-Bricks and it's an automatic. If someone buys it we could have a Volvette VS. Volvord show-down.

oh, and the volvord is slow, Ian is too nice to it for him to beat anyone in a drag race - he wants it to LAST you know ;)

Not like my cars... lol, they break every two minutes :D

It's not the Volvette... That was a twin turbo V8 740 wagon and Ian's car would not have stood a chance, beating on it or not...

This one? Who knows...

Yep, Ian's car isn't the only Volvord either. In fact, I know of an Escort with a Volvo motor, the owner of which also calls it a Volvord.
