By the way, thanks for the pointer Duvel78

i hope i can find one, even if dad claims the 360 is 'an inferior dutch volvo' lol, half of me wants to get one to piss him off, once shes done up, theyre going to be checking out my 360, not his p1800....mind u the p1800 is a sweet piece of metal....

262 was always nicer than the 242, with that lovely bertone styling.. mmm..

I'd prefer a 242 - 262Cs look too 'swankey' and american for me. Wanna buy one? I know of one for sale...

If you do get a 360...and it has Aircon....and you don't want it...sell it to me

You know you want to!!

cheers

Cops here drive mainly Astras and Mondeo estates. I've seen the odd V70, as well.

Heh, well, they're better than the knackered '57 Chevies that Cuban police primarily use.

According to insiders, these Volvo 300 series police cars, may look
like ordinary 340 1.4, but they were equipped with tuned 2-liter
engines and special chassis, suspension and brakes.
These cars could do 200km/h. In the early 80's that was quite fast.
To chase bank robbers etc, dutch police had Porsche 911.

Hey, the 300 series was used by the police in UK...

Look at that:
