I’d rather have a RWD volvo like 740 or 940 :)
The 340 is rwd… In Holland it has is own racecup… And it’s a popular driftcar
242 for the win :)
Volvo 340 is a horrendous car, and I’m a swede who loves volvo. But that model is just no
Agreed
It’s a weird little car with questionable reliability. Get a 740 instead.
I had a 340 with a F4R (clio RS 172 engine). If you want more power in a 340 you WILL break propshafts. If you really want a 300 i would go with a 360 (the ones with a redblock). Those are a lot stronger and its more Volvo because redblock :D Maybe i’m gonna buy another one but if i do i will have a conventional gearbox setup (gearbox directly behind the engine)
i like to call these volvos spring volvos, some of them can go as fast in reverse as going forward :)
As long as you get one with a volvo redblock-eninge I say go for it. It’s the best Volvo ever made because it’s not actually a Volvo (it beginned life as a DAF), much more fun to drive than a 240/740/940.
A fun car! I had one with welded diff, Roll cage and rally tires. Used it on a ice track.
