This has to be one of the nicest older Volvos around here.
I have been a Volvo 240 fan for many years. My personal 240 has been in our family for a long time, but I got the chance to purchase this car from the 2nd owner just recently.   I had been "stalking" him for quite a while, and just recently he decided to part with the car he bought and babied for many years. It's A local car bought here new in Oklahoma City at Benchmark Motors, the Volvo dealer at the time and serviced by the dealer and specialists ever since. Plus, it is one of the ultra rare 240 Classics, which were the last 1600 cars made and had special colors and options including wood dash trim, special "Lattice" alloy wheels, etc. In fact it is #273 of the last 1600 cars to be exact!

   If you are looking at this listing, I am sure you are familiar with the famous classic 240. They are built like tanks, and with quality that has allowed many to make it well over the 300,000 mile and 500,000 mile mark. I have personally owned one with over 300k miles that still was in great shape.

Like I said, This car was bought new in Oklahoma City, and has lived here ever since. It has been garaged, and fastidiously maintained as evidenced by the condition.    Also, the owners were pretty picky when it came to cosmetics of the car. It was always washed at the local carwash, and regularly waxed.   Inside, the owners regularly cleaned and detailed the interior keeping it looking very nice.   Under the hood, it is nearly spotless and looks great. The tires are also in good shape as well and nearly new. Recently it has had the A/C serviced and it is still blowing cold.

If you have been looking for one of the rarest and nicest 240's this could be it.   Perfect? no of course its not, after all it is over 20 years old, but if you want a very good one, here it is. I have the car for sale locally as well, so I reserve the right to end this listing at any time. I am open to reasonable offers, so let me know.   Terms: Buyer pays shipping, although, I can help get it shipped for much less than most people will quote. Sold as is where is with no guarantee or warranty. Must be paid for within 5 days of auction end. Thanks! 405-420-6996

Volvo Trucks makes some pretty strong brakes

Mon, 05 May 2014

Often dashcam footage from Russia shows some of the worst driving imaginable, but this is an exception. The Volvo truck driver in this video definitely earned himself a drink or two at the end of the day after making it through this potentially horrific crash. As do the folks at Volvo that engineered those brakes.
The truck driver shows some fantastic reaction time as the silver hatchback suddenly pulls out of an intersection. It looks like he only has a few yards to bring the behemoth to a stop before demolishing the little car. While it's an impressive feat, the best part of the video has to be the driver's bow when he gets out of the truck. He looks like a maestro who just finished conducting a symphony asking for a round of applause.
Scroll down to check out this truck driver's skills and see if he earns his bow afterward.

Apple announces CarPlay in-car iPhone interface

Mon, 03 Mar 2014

Apple, maker of tech items like the iPhone, iPad and Mac line of computers, is extending its reach into the automotive market, making a fairly big announcement ahead of the Geneva Motor Show. No, it hasn't bought Tesla (yet). Instead, Apple has announced CarPlay, an all-new means of controlling an iPhone through your car.
Now, this doesn't strike us as some gimmicky thing. It's become increasingly common for automakers to take advantage of the high-speed data streams its customers enjoy on their smartphones in order to integrate navigation, traffic, audio and other infotainment items into a car's touchscreen interface. The Chevrolet Spark and Sonic are two prime examples of this move, using an iPhone's data stream for Siri integration and data for a third-party navigation app.
Owners will be able to plug in their iPhones to their cars via the USB port and gain control of a number of the device's functions, all through a car's touchscreen.

Automotive April Fools' joke roundup [w/videos]

Mon, 01 Apr 2013

Happy April, everyone. And we all know what this first day of the month means: April Fools' Day. Today is a national holiday for pranksters with the Internet acting as a serious enabler, and it's always fun to see what kind of vivid imaginations exist out there in the automotive world. The abundance of fake news gets a little old as the day rolls on, but we did manage to get in a few chuckles thanks to a handful of major automakers and automotive news outlets that got into the pranking spirit this year
Some of our favorites this year includes Subaru showing what happens when you combine a bunch of rumors, a Corvette some may have already thought was a joke or Honda providing some in-car innovation circa the late 1980s. Honestly, we're still waiting for official confirmation from Mitsubishi that the recently introduced 2014 Mirage is an elaborate April Fools' joke using a failed design intended for the 1995 Geo Metro. We dug up as much "official" OEM foolishness we could find, as well as some of our other favorites, and posted them all below.
