What's this?

'86 Nissan Stanza with 356k, '90 Volvo 760 Turbo with 270k


That was about 10 years ago when I was single and mortgage broke. Simpler times for sure.

Never had to change the oil in the Stanza (the Costanza as my friends called it) because it all ended up on the ground soon enough!

The Volvo was a blast. I took the boost regulator off and ran 93 octane; probably running 25-30 PSI. The car never flinched and was faster than 5.0 Mustangs- which is not that fast, but don't tell a 5.0 Mustang owner his car is about to lose to a gold Volvo. Not a lot of carbon left in those combustion chambers!
