For this video, we hop in this hilarious Volvo 240 that he loves to drift. One of the most fun I've had in a review in a long time and probably ruined everybody's day. It's no crazy supra, awd GTR, or anything nuts- just one of the most fun project cars. Thanks for watching!

Two guys conversation
A: Yo dude I'm getting a 240.
B: Bro sick we gonna do tandems.
A shows up in a Volvo 240
B: Man wtf 😂
very capable engine fyi
Still does tandems lol
I’d rather do tandems in the Volvo than the Nissan lol
I would drift the Volvo because I would probaply crash xD
@@DaddyRusdy I own Volvo 240 and you can whip that bitch
I own a more offensive volvo. Rust bombed 740 with one seat, off road lights and a flying tigers shark face.
I live in Atlanta, you can drive it if you want.

Dont ever underestimate a brick with a Volvo badge on it.
This car looks totally brand new... What's the problem?
Tom's day I literally laughed so hard.
ThatDudeinBlue I still don't understand 😂 😉
ThatDudeinBlue why are you laughing
great condition too
It doesn't even have Lane Assist
Thatdudeinblue is one of the best car channels out there
Jake Foster thank you!
Jake Foster this channel is slowly dying...
TurboFLash word
He always kept everything good about his channel all the way from the beginning, like he never changed because we all liked it from the beginning and the crazy diversity in the cars he review makes it good too. Thatdudeinblue is definitely one of the best.
The back seats moved in like every different scene lol
Conner Jones I noticed it too lmfao
That's a nice Volvo 420
A car model that don't exist, he moved the original lettering.
Braaten Safe that's why he made the comment more than likely.
BraatenSafe-- My Gawd, you get put on blast in a thread up above for this comment, and your ignorant stubborn ass is right her- just a few comments down stating the EXACT SAME SHIT all over again!! I mean really dude, how DUMB can you possibly be??!?
im from sweden ive seen a bunch of volvos with 300 000 miles PLUS. and yes it is true that volvo is the most common platforms for drifting and dragraceing. verry popular to put bmw engines in them but also LS and 2jz. this 240 your driveing got a b23 (hints 23 2,3L) but a b230 is a 2,3L but many of them got turbos stock and those are know to make 700hp there is a guy thats going for 900 wheel right now and that will be the record. But there is the volvo 850 T5 motor witch is front wheel drive but its known to make 1000+. And you can take the t5 engine and put in a 940.740,240. Becasue the t5 engine bolts right up with the 960 transmission (m90h transmission) and then you get rear wheel drive. the nice things about volvo everything bolts toghter with everything. KINDA like honda.
jompa zx Volvo is love
Yea kinda
jompa zx
At last somebody says something worthwile and VERY USEFUL!!
Many thanks Zompa ZX!!!
jompa zx no stop we don’t want people to see the cool aspects and raise the price on our 240s
Var i Sverige är du ifrån?
Volvo is a great automotive innovator. One of, if not the first, car manufacturers to see the value in front and rear disc brakes. That's not to mention how readily available they are, and easy to upgrade. I think the 240 is one of the car communities most overlooked options, but anyone who owns a Volvo understands the quality and practicality of the car. For me it was love at first shift.
This is SO COOL. Ive got a 1978 estate/wagon 240, planning to put a 2jz-ge in it early next year!
h o l y s h i t
Josh Briggs that's way cool!, I've got an 86 245 wagon I'm LS swapping this year!
Josh Briggs i have one too. im swapping in a rb26dett!
Jesus, are you guys part of any clubs??? the LS and RB are amazing engines, better than the GE, i've heard that getting an RB to fit is a real pain in the ass, but i think thats a rhd problem.. not sure RangerGecko44 FaZe Rain
Josh Briggs i know some one has the same setup as you're planning.
I love that you're not just all about what's the best and fastest. You're not like any other car channel as far as I don't know anyone who has as much passion for cars as you do. I love that you find the unique and fun things in any car and find the awesome parts in all the ugly. That's true passion man, and I feel like you deserve more than you do. Keep it up man!!
First of your videos Ive seen. You do a great job! Good presence, solid audio, great personality and awesome subject matter. Keep the videos coming!
Omg the exhaust. 😬
Nitro 95 Very Japanese.
Nitro 95 I read that as I saw it lol
Nitro 95 much bozosuku, so Japan
But 80hp....
.... MUCH MISLEAD
mislead? bozosukustyle isnt about being fast...... only style
Just made my day when I saw you uploaded a new video.
Absolutely love this, everything about it. You gotta do more of these lol
Posted on my lunch break lol Thanks for the amazing content man! Keep it up :)
a 240 volvo in good condition is another beast, it's a very predicative and comfortable car that is as fast or faster than many cars supposed to be "fast" cars on long trips
Reminds me of that Saab that was on Regular Car Reviews.
A-Cup Gamer Girls
What I gots big. what I gots BLACK
nah that saab was pretty clean. loved the chalk/blackboard!
troopmasta7 Nnngnnnngnn #COCKSDAILY
Everything about this Volvo '420' is amazing. So much personal style! Props to you Austin
i love this video man .... i am glad people still appreciate these cars..... very nice please do videos on more iconic cars like this if you can... thanks
The 2.3 can be very powerful. People are running over 1000hp on them and they can also be bored and stroked to over 3 liters
Will Riley yea if yoy dumb 10k you gotta get an evo rally head or a 16v head... and a stoker kit from Sweden is 6 grand it's a total money pit
Yes, he's not wrong though lol.
Bob Sagit Pretty sure any car making 1000+hp is gonna cost well over 10K to build. If it didnt, then it's a complete shitbox.
razflyer Yeah you are pretty much right. But for how long a 1000hp B16 would blow up after 3 1/4 mile drags or 3 dyno pulls
2.5 with the marine crank, 2.7L bored but that’s stretching it; the walls are quite thin.
Wow this Volvo reminds me of the 0 f*cks given rx7
Rizic Gaming the rx7 was cooler😂
Rizic Gaming or the Miata
This was an amazing video I love how that Volvo looks. Keep up the awesome work David, I'm a loyal subscriber 🙂 1K represent. The reason I think one side is gutted the other side isn't because he had to corner balance the driver side of the car 😂.
That dude in blue is back!!!! These videos are why I subscribed
Dam bumber held with zip ties?
He's probably inspired by RoadKill
The_Drift_Killa777 Finnegan signed the hood of the car when I met him at my local drag strip actually haha
Austin Azcona lucky.
Btw love that volvo it gives me a feel of roadkill.
Keep up the good work 👍👌
Austin Azcona car is amazing
More likely that he is just inspired by every swedish 15-30 year old. They all drive volvo 240s or 740s or Nissan King Cabs. (But its mostly the younger ones 15-18 who drives king cabs) and they all look like this Volvo..
You need to review a turbo 240. I know a guy who has a stock (looking) 240 that has a TD04 turbo that makes 330whp with 300,000 miles on it. Also, cut springs are definitely not causing the vibration.
Joey Kissinger it's the toe rod angle and the slight misalignment. I had roll correctors to fix it but those are what actually caused the wheel to fall off on my trip. The correctors were putting such high stress loads that the bolts that held the strut to the ball joint snapped and sheared
Austin Azcona Kapelhenke roll center correctors? I can't believe you broke those.
Iain the correctors didn't break the bolts did
Those 3SDMs looks so minty. Love it
Awesome review David, super unique car. As always, AMAZING review! You're an awesome dude!
I want to buy myself a volvo for my first car
Alexandre Gaumond do it!!!!!!!!
Alexandre Gaumond do it
Alexandre Gaumond They are great cars! Try to find one built after 87 at least (wiring was greatly improved, still not great tho :/) and get ready to do the rear bushings on the back axle if you want it to drive decently. There are guides online to build a bushing tool, it's an absolute pita though. When you first get it, do all the usual maintenance and make sure the pcv system isn't clogged. However, they are great cars. Mine is (kinda unfortunately) an auto but with redone suspension it feels great and the steering feel is phenomenal imo. Good luck!
thanks Ryan
Same,i wish i can get 1979 Volvo 242 DL when im older
Im only 11 :/
my nans v70 had 415,000 miles... before she sold it lol, thee only problem it had was the cd player only worked in hot weather lol
I'm a long time subscriber and a Volvo enthusiast I'm so happy you made this keep em comin!!!
No doubt if you are gonna do another Volvo it should be a wagon 🤙
Kinda cool to see someone big on CZcams that does videos around the area I live lol. Love the vids man!
Bape Bape absolutely, love the area.😎
That's what we call in SWEDEN... A WRECK! Pour power and lousy balancing of the wheels. I Suggest You come to Sweden and try a REAL tuned Volvo 240series...
"hopes, dreams, oil and zip ties" xD #americandream
I love this car David, awesome job on the video. Congrats don't give up on ur dreams bro, hope to see u in person one day 😜
I'm from Sweden, and my father has always had Volvos my entire life. Started with volvo 140, then 240, a 360 even. And several 740is, then a 945 Turbo that I got when i turned 18. Now it just sits in his yard since he says its his. But I got my own 940 now that has around 200 HP. With turbo and i freaking love the car! It rattles a bit, smells a bit funky but shit. It's my car!
That thing is so dope!
Those exhaust pipes are bigger than my future... and longer
BrienMusic Way to stay positive, loser
this is a great show concept - thx so much for showcasing the underdogs of cardom!
You are the best. Love this review! Much love from Stockholm Sweden!
i put a volvo badge on my pugeot
is my volvo offensive enough
Justin Nguyen yes
no, because there were times when volvos had a peugeot engine. that's more offensive.
unless yours is a 260 or a 760.
then you're a fucknut.
zloychechen5150 that engine is called the PRV six, because it was a jointed work between Peugeot, Renault and Volvo doing their part on it.
a bad motor it still is.
but as a diesel these had a Wolkswagen engine thats true ag least.
I see this car and I think...stoner
phycadelic pikachu far from it actually
1 weejd turnt me gai
Austin Azcona um it says Volvo 420
love your vids you brighten my day
Been waiting for this vid to come out for so long. Awesome to see you finally did a volvo. Really a shame that I love in Sweden though. Would be a dream come true if you reviewed my 9-3
I'm more offended by the fact that you haven't exposed jr garage yet...

WHERE'S THE RHD INTEGRA !?
David your such a good inspiration, keep up the amazing work:)
3:30 That is so true! Us Swedes modify Volvos for basically everything, rally, drifting, racing etc, the amount of modified Volvos here are ridiculous. The 240/740/940 is a great platform because they are REALLY easy to work on, and 940 turbos for an example, could easily push 250hp with some cheap supporting mods. Great beginner drift car :)
Oh and you should really visit Gatebil this summer.
i bet david thought the 240 was a 240SX boy was he wrong
TDIB squad!!!!
You are my favorite car CZcamsr! Keep up the great work David!
You're making me miss my volvos. I was given a '93 940 when i was 16. Drove it for almost a decade. Ive also had a 240 and 740. I miss them all. Cars aren't made that way anymore...
drifticulties!
dude in blue givn this car too much cred. Its a badass car but too many ghetto ass issues especially the vibrating steering column which is caused by NOT cut springs but bad rack bushings and possibly motor mounts/wheel hubs. like i said badass car but those issues should be addressed
Hey dude. I know you'll never respond to this but it's cool. I remember when you first moved to Atlanta and you went through a bunch of drama. You were on the ropes and thinking about moving back to Va. but you stuck it out and for what it's worth, i'm personally proud of you. Cuz if you would've came back you never would've got to review that sick Volvo. Roll with the punches bro. Keep the content flowing and I'll always be subscribed. Best Wishes- Bobby.
So cool! That 240 rocks. I love the headlights and wheels. Nice job David!
5 minute club
Roadkill would approve.
randy54746 they signed the hood for me actually!
Austin Azcona Sick Volvo man
@@austinazcona700 they wouldnt aprovew the b23 tho... too reliable for them lol! nah but the b23 is hard af to break if you ask me i have a 240 beten to hell that i baugt for 50$ blow 20+ sets of rear tires and 8k rpm stock motor still going strong!
dude i cant thank you enough for this, i love theses cars they are so under rated! i have a 1985 245 wagon myself M46 trans 275k still bangin gears
When your wheel setup cost more than your actual car.. Awesome review, as always!
Review a Ford Probe
WHY
does the owner have an instagram or CZcams?
insta is @drifticulties
Lucas Pariano thanks man
Yes! This car is seriously the most unique youve reviewed. The cat sticker is what makes it complete haha
I flat out loved the video!! I laughed at some parts. good content!
the milage is probably not accurate...probably allot more......
Rafael Valentin believe it or not it is accurate, the odo has never been rebuilt and hasn't broke yet *crosses fingers*
Austin Azcona Haha don't worry, it's a pretty easy fix! Awesome car btw!
I love this car! Can you please put an LS motor in it...
love the channel keep up the good work and this is badass first the subaru know the volvo haha awesome keep up the good work
sweet got a volvo 740 beater myself, camed it and got 132hp out of it with that alone lots of fun throwing sideways even with that little power, did you know you can buy 3,1L stroker kits for these engines?. have seen 2,5L builds with ported heads and twin weber carbs at 280+hp these engines are so simple and lovely to work on :)
I'm offended.
So he couldn't get the wheels balanced? Sacrificed the electric 5th gear to put on a custom knob that falls off? The 4 speed trans had been gone for ages before that year. I bet it still has 5th, but you just can't use it because there's no switch to engage it. Seems a lot of repairs or upgrades were just never finished and half assed. Why would he leave off the reverse lockout? It's attached by 2 bolts. Another sacrifice for the custom shifter no doubt. Doesn't run right? whatever happened to "stage 0"? The bumper isn't hard to bolt in either. Why would you use zip ties over wrenching about 4 bolts? All that effort in a diffuser, but not fix the brakes? The stock brakes are quite capable. 240s have 4 wheel disc. There shouldn't be an issue on the street...What a hack job. This car is an extension of laziness and ineptitude.
my friend owns a volvo 240 with a 4speed and his is a 1983.
Johannes Vaksdal well volvo never used 4 speed transmissions in the volvo 240
@@danly7750 You only need to go to Wikipedia to see that's not true.
@@danly7750 They did. There were plenty of 240s the first years (from 1975) without the overdrive.
Aye fuck u buddy. Go do sumn
Am I the only one that missed this channel's videos because CZcams didn't show it in my feed? I missed 2 months, and I didn't even realize it until now.
Another reason to binge watch though.
Volvo 240 are great. My first car was a 1982 Volvo 244 GLT.
I think there's a difference between offensive, and actually dangerous. Stay safe David.
Nothing about this 240 is a whole lot more dangerous than an original 240
Volvo 240>Nissan 240.
JK Still like the Volvo 240 tho
BCJDM but volvo is danker than the nissan
BCJDM i think you misstook > and
hey man
I Subscribed to your channel
keep up the good work :D
Wow, Love your channel! I realy think that you should do more videos about old Volvos! They are realy cool and here in sweden we gott tons of them and sadly most of them goes to Young teenagers that destroys them;( but My dad found a Volvo 944 fullpresure turbo that has bin in a garage for 20 years now and im planning to restore IT! I vould Love to se a complitly restored and tuned Volvo! Keep up The good work mate!
This could have been so cool but the exhaust ruined it for me
@Carl Rosendahl Actually I have a 240 of my own and a 180SX, but nice try.
"Don't suck"
Get rid of that fucking exhaust then.
~ A. Volvo Owner
You finally did a Volvo!!! Thank you, I've been waiting for this :D
Darnihx no problem!
ThatDudeinBlue cheers mate, I'm a Volvo guy so that made me want to see this even more. It was worth the wait!
Hi David,big fan of the channel From Argentina!
Those wheels are hideous. But the rest is cool.
Ceazar Carr Wheels look really good imo
If it were on a clean Volvo, they would look great, but its supposed to look out of place so the rims are appropriate.
Ceazar Carr they'd look better without the stretched tires i bet
Why? Otherwise, it wouldn't be offensive!
Yeah that's probably true, I hate stretched tires.
S M H...
David i have always been on your side when it comes to you saying you haven't changed your video style but i think ive finally put my finger on it. its very subtle but i feel like your glamour shots have gotten shorter and become more like review vlogs in a way while alot of your older stuff have had more shots of the car and more exterior pulls and shots of the cars. the one thing missing is the big boost fly by. The quality is still great and still amazing video. just those subtle changes make more of a difference than i thought. id like to see what others think but thats just what ive noticed.
I kinda love hate when you do buckets but it shows you haven't forgotten about the enthusiasts that's building on a budget I love it David one they hopefully we'll get you in my s2000
Ricer
McChicken Cock There is a difference in making a car a piece of art and a "ricer". Guess 10 year olds cant see the difference yet.
Levin Be +1
Its super dope
I thought I could freely express my opinion I guess not.
P.S Im actually 11
That has nothing to do with opinion. Its a fact. Would be the same as to say fire is cold.
this is the best review, the shift knob is hilarious
my favourite reviews of yours are always the odd cars, this this is awesome
awesome review mang
awesome car, love the 240! thank you for this video
Another sick video david👏. Can u do a video on a fully built schassis for drifting with a 1j or 2j
At car shows I go straight to cars like this. Love it.
Oh my god I've been waiting for this for so longgggg 😍😍😍😍😍
loved the video man !! not going to lie it makes me wanna get a old turbo brick
Awesome video David
+ThatDudeinBlue
Always love the quality of these vids!
Idk why but looking at cars like this puts on a huge smile on my face
