The front bumper on that had an additional piece of rubber around the number plate formed as "overriders" like those on the back bumper of this car. It also had small wheel centre caps with exposed chrome wheel nuts. I remember most 1976 240s had slightly larger hub caps that covered the wheelnuts. I believe also that 1975 was the last year you could switch the lights off on a Volvo 200! -- Last edit: 2017-01-04 20:58:06
