This 1989 Volvo 240 wagon (VIN YV1AX8851K1822201) has been heavily modified and looks great, the seller noting that car served as a prototype test bed for noted Portland-based Volvo tuner R-Sport International. We love the idea of a clean appliance white over blue cloth longroof 240 packing more than 400 RWHP, and the fact that this one retains Volvo power makes it especially cool. Find it here on eBay in Portland, Oregon with a $12k BIN.

The car looks quite clean overall, though the ad does state that paint is original and imperfect when viewed up close. 17” snowflake style wheels are well chosen, but we’d dial in some more ride height for functionality’s sake.

The interior looks well cared for and features big, matching blue Sparco seats and harnesses in front, while other mods include a small steering wheel from the same company, a touchscreen wideband O2 sensor monitor and a VDO boost gauge.

Suspension upgrades consist of RSI coilovers, adjustable rear spring perch kit and poly bushings, while mods from other companies include a 28mm IPD front sway bar and Noltec camber plates. 13″ front brakes are also mentioned.

Power comes from a heavily built, RSI-assembled 2.5 stroker B230F running a billet crank, H-beam rods, turbo tune pistons, prototype Stage 2 cylinder head, Stage 3 cam prototype, a Holset/Garrett hybrid turbo and more detailed in the ad. Output varies from 325 to 427 HP at the wheels depending on tune, and the motor certainly sounds built to withstand high boost.
