Volvo 264
The Volvo 200 series is a range of executive cars produced by Volvo from 1974 to 1993, with more than 2.8 million units sold worldwide. The Volvo 240 and 260 series was introduced in the autumn of 1974, and was initially available as five variations of the 240 Series (242L, 242DL, 244DL, 244GL, 245L and 245DL) and two variations of the 260 Series (264DL and 264GL).

All models were available with a choice of four-speed manual or a three-speed automatic transmission. A five-speed manual gearbox was optional on the 264GL and 265GL.Volvo 264 FAQ's
