First off, this is my first post here, seems like a cool forum. Figured this would be a good way to introduce myself.
Anyone else here into old Turbo Volvo's? I've got a 1983 240 Turbo and I'm convinced it's one of the most well rounded cars ever made. They are insanely reliable, they are safe, they handle great, and even stock the Intercooled Turbo models are quite quick.
I don't prefer stock though
Here's some pictures and some info of my car
[The black one is a friend of mine's]

Much more to come!
