How many people on here have turbo 240/244/245/242's?
If yours is turbo has it been converted or imported?

Mines a 1988 240 wagon, m46, b230ft conversion.
I reckon you'd find very few imported ones ... in fact, I don't think I've ever heard of one!
There did seem to be weird cars come up for sale in Canberra every now & again, I figured they were often diplomatic cars, but they also never seemed to be top-spec models either.
Mine's a 242GT, made in 1979 ('80 model in US parlance), repainted red.

I know of an origional Volvo 240 turbo in victoria
I had a UK import 240t wagon (glt I believe) which I saved of the back of a flat tray on the way to Simms...after discovering it's lack of floor almost everywhere & absence of original engine it recommenced it's journey & is now your kettle.
I think you should post pics for us gue555. Slowbrick has a 240T, Mike has a 240T as well..
And the pair of boosted gts I currently have;-)
Is one of them mine when I come for a visit???volvodriverman;17803 wroteAnd the pair of boosted gts I currently have;-)

GLT from the uk isn't turbo :p only John Johnston has a factory volvo 244t that was a trial.
Yeah volvo abandoned it due to steering shaft clearance
Im having a similar issue with my ft conversion………..
and also getting a 3 inch exhaust to fit over the diff has been fun…….

I'm running under diff on mine
Was either a factory rhd turbo car or a very good misrepresentation, had factory compliance plates & stickers in the bay suggesting originality (exhaust driven turbocharger etc.) Stands to reason it'd be interesting if someone dragged it here from the UK too I guess. Also, might not have been a UK car originally...who knows, was at least 10 yrs ago it went to Valhalla!Vee_Que;20398 wroteGLT from the uk isn't turbo :p only John Johnston has a factory volvo 244t that was a trial.
