1983 Volvo 240: The World's Fastest Baggage Handler

The text  portion of this ad states:

THE WORLD's FASTEST BAGGAGE HANDLER?
If there's a station wagon in the world that's faster than the Turbo Wagon from Volvo,
it's a very-well kept secret.
The Turbo Wagon can take you from a standing start to the legal speed limit in 9.2 seconds.  As Motor Trend puts it: "You keep hoping for a stray Saab 900 Turbo or even a BMW uou can sniff out and then send scambling to the roadside while you blow its doors in."
We assure you, a test drive in the Turbo Wagon will be very revealing.
Especially if you thought the only time a station wagon could haul
was when it had something in the back.
THE TURBO WAGON
