My son's girlfriend crashed his/our '90 244 DL last Tuesday. Rearended a Honda, which proceeded to hit the car in front of it. The crash did almost the same damage to the 244: splintered fan shroud, busted air box, crumpled rad support, buckled hood. The condenser sacrificed itself to save the radiator. The impact also bent the driver's side fender a little. The only hidden damage was two busted motor mounts! That sudden deceleration apparently put a lot of stress on the rubber.

This is the SECOND Volvo 240 and third car this boy has crashed (he wasn't driving, but his girlfriend is a logical extension). He is more hazardous to Volvos than east coast rust.
