forum_emoticons.html	[quote=qwerty_86,12226]I know it's a poor cell phone picture, but I don't always carry my digicam with me. I thought this car was kind of neat. It was in really good condition too, almost mint except for the cheezy hubcaps. On the back was a 242 badge. On the front, there was a badge I've never seen before. It had a lambda symbol on the grille followed by "Lambda" something (I can't remember). I'm assuming this is a rare car? [url]http://img263.imageshack.us/img263/5097/volvo242cq3.jpg[/url][/quote]

I think the owner might be the original owner. The license plate is a '71-'76 issue.

Lambda Sond - it is a system that regulating the fuel injection via Lambda Sond placed on the exhaust (now common thing on every car, back then in 1976 arre thing - first used by Volvo I believe) :smile:
