....more for future reference. From what i can gather these are predominantly North American cars?

Thanks!

Rare, but they do come up in the UK occasionally. A friend of mine advertised one a few weeks ago

Why would you want a 265? The V6 was not Volvo's best engine - we had a 245 GLT with the 2.3 FI motor which I would argue was a much nicer car, but they're probably almost as rare today as the bigger engined car.

Regards. John.
