Six of the best: Volvo estates
When it comes to making estates, Swedish car maker Volvo knows a bit more than most. We’re huge fans of these Scandinavian workhorses here at Honest John Classics. So as the firm takes the covers off its new V90 load-lugger, we thought we’d take a look back at some of Volvo’s great estates from the past 60 years.

245
Arguablly the archetypal Volvo estate, the Volvo 245 was launched in 1974 and can still be seen in regular service. Not that surprising when you remember it was in production until 1993. When bolting a turbocharger to everything became popular in the 1980s, Volvo got in the act with the mighty 245 Turbo - a car that we sadly never got in the UK.
