400 series Volvo's are FWD, you want 200, 300, 700, 900 series.

I'm really confused. I used to drift my 440 for fun, throwing it sideways around corners with minimum effort, do I always assumed it was RWD as it certainly seemed to handle like one (Having never done any work on the drivetrain I didn't notice a lack of prop shaft, lol) So how is it possible to achieve such a high level of oversteer from a FWD car. I'd always wanted to try an S40 but was disappointed to learn it was FWD, then reading specs on the 440 I realised that it was also FWD. Any suggestions? Maybe just the sheer bulk/weight I've recently got myself back on the road and I'm thinking towards next year, when my insurance goes down a bit and I can think about getting a bigger car again.
