Volvo 245, 1985, D24

In Russia, many cars are Volvo, but 90% gasoline.
For example, in our Moscow Volvo Forum, only 5-8 people have diesel cars.We have ~200 regular members in our Forum. I mean the Volvo 200, 700, 900 series.

In Moscow there are two companies that sell second-hand spare parts for our cars. But in other cities, used spare parts hard to find. Often easier to buy a car completely and take it with necessary spare parts.
New parts can be easily bought in stores. A lot of good quality not OEM parts. There are spare parts available, but most have to wait 2-3 days. In addition, D24T used in VW LT, spare parts for VW are much cheaper.
