1988 Volvo 240 GL, great condition. It just passed the California smog test with flying colors. Very low emissions. The new smog certificate is dated July 20, 2014. Clean title. It's ready to be registered to a new owner in California or anywhere else! The car is in great overall condition. The engine runs very consistently, and all the features work. Crisp-shifting automatic transmission. As discussed in the video, the car was in a fender-bender that damaged the grill and headlights, but it was fixed. You can see the repair in the photos and videos. The car has approximately 200,000 miles. My grandmother bought it in 1988, and I shipped it from Massachusetts to California in 2004. When I shipped the car, I pressed the "odometer reset" button, and with a *click* the odometer stopped working with 98,638 miles on it. The speedometer still works fine, but the odometer is frozen at 98,638. I estimate that the car now has 200,000 total miles. The paint is good although there are dings and chips all around. There is a large paint scratch on the hood- see the video. There are no big areas of paint missing. The leather is worn on the edge of the driver's seat, but it's intact. The passenger's side leather and back seat are in good condition with much less wear. The exhaust system has been almost entirely replaced. The exhaust gaskets were replaced in 2004, and the muffler, resonator, and catalytic converter were replaced more recently. The brakes have been overhauled. When our son arrived in 2013, we replaced all the brake pads and the front rotors. In the last 3 months we've replaced the master cylinder and the equalizer. So the brakes are really strong. The shocks and struts have not been replaced. The tires are worn- they will need replacing soon, especially the rear tires. All the electrical systems work. There is a Jensen cassette deck that unfortunately eats tapes. It does have an "iPod jack" to plug in your phone and play music through the stereo. I also installed Blaupunkt speakers. I know that the radio draws some current from the battery, even when the car is off. If the car is not drive, it can drain the battery in around a week. So when I park the car long-term, I remove fuse #8 which powers the radio and the power locks. This is not absolutely necessary- it takes around a week for the battery to drain. If you drive the car frequently, you can disregard this. Otherwise you can (1) do what I did and remove fuse #8 for long-term parking situations, (2) disconnect the radio entirely, or (3) get a new radio. The sunroof works well. There is some plastic chipping on the front door storage bins. Includes Volvo floor mats, extra windshield wipers, original manuals, and service manual. Maintenance highlights (does not include oil changes or smog tests) 9/16/2004 - I shipped the car from MA to CA; odometer broke at 98,638 miles when I pressed the reset button.

2024 NY Auto Show, the new Mercedes G and a possible Xterra revival | Autoblog Podcast #825
Fri, Mar 29 2024In this episode of the Autoblog Podcast, Editor-in-Chief Greg Migliore is joined by Associate Editor Byron Hurd, who joins us fresh from the floor at the 2024 New York Auto Show.

After that, they touch on the potential for a Toyota FJ Cruiser revival, which then leads them to an Autoblog scoop from Nissan: a new Xterra is apparently on the table. They wrap up news with an overview of this year's Easter Jeep Safari concepts. From that, it's on to what they've been driving. Greg has spent some time in the Genesis G70, while Byron shares his thoughts from his first few weeks behind the wheel of the Autoblog long-term Subaru WRX. Send us your questions for the Mailbag and Spend My Money at: Podcast@Autoblog.com.

Volvo Polestar reveals new V8 Supercars engine
Mon, 09 Dec 2013Volvo may be better known for turbo fives and inline fours, but in 2005 it launched the XC90 with a new eight-cylinder engine built for it by Yamaha. Fast forward to this past June when Volvo announced its intention to enter Australia's V8 Supercars series, where it would compete with the likes of Ford, Holden, Nissan and Mercedes-AMG. This is the engine with which it intends to do so.
Revealed this weekend at the Sydney 500, this competition-spec powerplant is based on the same B8444S that powered the XC90 and S80 (not to mention the Noble M600), but tuned for racing duty to be shoehorned into the new S60 touring car. The 60-degree aluminum block has been bored out from 4.4 liters to 5.0, its compression ratio boosted to 10:1, modified to run on E85 bio-ethanol and its redline increased to 7500 rpm. Volvo also promises a unique engine note from its new racers.
While Volvo and its racing partner Polestar haven't released official output numbers, regulations call for outputs between 620 and 650 horsepower - in any event, a whole lot more than the 311 hp it produces in stock form. (Noble managed to squeeze that much out of the same block, but that required twin turbochargers while this unit remains naturally aspirated.) Scope out the details in the press release below and the photos from the reveal in the gallery above.
Volvo Cars delays EX90 production
Thu, May 11 2023Sweden-based Volvo Cars has delayed the start of production of its new Volvo EX90 model for more software development and testing, it said on Thursday, sending its shares down 5%. The company now expects to start production of the fully electric SUV in the first half of 2024, it said in a statement. Volvo Cars, majority owned by China's Geely, unveiled the model late last year, expecting it to hit showrooms in early 2024. Production was previously planned to begin at the end of 2023, a Volvo Cars spokesperson said. He declined to say when the company now expects the model to reach showrooms.
