Neither of those things can be seen on the car shown above which clearly points towards a US spec Volvo 245. The 260 series was very rare indeed. Edit: The rectangular head lights were standard on the 260 series from 1979 while the 240 series got them from 1980 (or was it 1981?). -- Last edit: 2011-03-13 20:46:50
