VOLVO 240

Picture

Universe: All

Story: Felney

First seen: Aaron's mum has one in Classic Felney.

Type: Car

Year(s): 1974 - 1993

Crew: 1

Passengers: 4

Top Speed: 118mph (2.1l)

Weapons: None

Defence: Reasonable Swedish armour-plating. Can survive a modest nuclear exchange.

Capacity: At least eight sets of golf bats (Estate)

Length: XXXX

Width: XXXX

Height: XXXX

Fuel Type: Petrol / Diesel

General Info:

A big, square car which gained a good reputation for space, reliability and safety. It was the staple of plodding, middle-class families for years. The car remained in production for a surprisingly long time, only going out of service in 1993, and many stuck around for a long time after, before being eaten up by the banger track. The estate version was seemingly more popular than the saloon, it's cavernous boot could eat up everything for a family holiday and it would still pull the caravan.

In Felney Software driving games, it's called a Vulcan 240

Variants:

Classic Felney - Aaron's mum has a light blue estate.

Felney - Mike has a black saloon with a (sometimes vanishing) roll cage, spoiler, crude bonnet scoop and 5.3l Ford V8. Registration: C404BOM

Origin / Inspiration:

Based on the real life car. Mike owning a grotty modified one is based on a similarly grotty Vauxhall Viva ("it breaks down if I clean it!") I saw in a magazine circa 2007, and a website called "Turbo Bricks" I found circa 2002.
