Year:1989 Mileage:185150 Color: weatherstripping for all
Location:

Houston, Texas, United States

Houston, Texas, United States

This is the 240 wagon you have been waiting to buy...this is probably one of the best looked after and cared for available today.
Up for auction is our beloved and extremely well-sorted 1989 Volvo 240 wagon (a.k.a The Brick).  We have owned this fantastic car for the past 17 years, and are only the second owners.  The car is even better in person than the pictures.  We have all service receipts and documentation that you would expect for a car of this quality.  

We have documented receipts of over $1300 in the past year with the following parts replaced:

  • New radiator
  • New belts and hoses (spare set of belts included)
  • Re-manufactured alternator
  • Harmonic balancer
  • New plugs, rotor and cap
  • New window interior and exterior weatherstripping for all 4 window channels
  • AC just recharged, ready for summer and blows cold!
  • New battery
  • Oil and filter change in last 350 miles

Many upgrades are also included: 
  • IPD 25 mm front/rear sway bars
  • PIAA EXTREME WHITE bulbs
  • IPD turbo exhaust
  • Sony am/fm/CD player with Pioneer rear 6x9 and Infinity front door speakers + tweeters with crossover
  • ADS Power Plate amplifier 25 watt
  • Custom black sheepskins for front seats
  • Tinted windows to legal spec for all windows
  • Wheelskins leather steering wheel cover
  • Color coded floor mats front and rear
  • All turn signal lenses front and rear are new in last two years 
Outside of the typical driver seat stitching that separated at the seams, the interior is nearly perfect given the car is 25 years old.  The carpets are not faded and in excellent condition.  The headliner is intact and unblemished.  Small details like visor clips and glove box door all operate as new.

In short, if you are looking for the best example with the history and documentation, then bid on it knowing the owners have a 100% rating on eBay.  The car has virtually no rust, only two very small spots that are barely visible at the rear wiper and the luggage rack. Both areas are documented in pictures and smaller than a house key in width. The car has never been wrecked, there is no bondo or filler anywhere.  Purchased in Kansas and a Texas car the past 17 years, it has many years of life ahead for the new owner.

Please feel free to inspect the car in person or arrange for a pre-purchase inspection at your expense.  The car is being sold as-is, with no warranty expressed or implied.  Thank you for looking and hope the winning bid goes to a home that will take the same great care that we have!  Good luck...

Polestar looking to tune Volvo CUVs

Sun, 19 Oct 2014

Volvo is getting serious about emerging from the fringes and into the mainstream of the luxury automobile market. But if it's going to challenge the Germans, it's going to need a performance line. And that's just what it's developing with Polestar.
Building on the motorsport partnership that has seen Polestar represent Volvo in the Scandinavian Touring Car Championship, World Touring Car Championship and V8 Supercars series, Polestar has been charged with developing road-going performance Volvos as well. It currently offers comprehensively tuned versions of the S60 and V60, as well as engine upgrades for other models, but the latest word has it that Polestar will turn its attention next to tuning Volvo crossovers like the XC60 and the new XC90, pictured above in top-spec R-Design trim.
Details on how Volvo would modify those models remain to be determined, but it wouldn't be much of a stretch to imagine the XC60 outfitted with similar enhancements to those offered on its sedan and wagon stablemates to mount a challenge to the Audi SQ5. As for the larger XC90, it seems Volvo is already squeezing as much out of its new 2.0-liter triple-charged inline-four as it can, but more aggressive handling, aero and brakes could stand to transform the flagship crossover in pursuit of performance utes like the Mercedes ML63 AMG and BMW X5 M, even if it couldn't quite match their impressive horsepower outputs.

Latest Forza Horizon 3 car pack features a Skyline and a fast Swedish wagon

Tue, Jan 3 2017

The steady stream of Forza Horizon 3 car packs shows no signs of slowing down, and the latest Rockstar Energy Drink pack includes enthusiast favorites such as the R31 Skyline and the Volvo V60 Polestar. The car pack also features a couple of sporty two-doors and some off-road oriented machines. Luxury-minded players will be pleased to see both the Bentley Bentayga and BMW i8 make an appearance. People more concerned with ultimate performance will have a different pair to consider. Players will want to check out the Ford trophy truck for busting dunes, and the Radical RXC Turbo for race-car levels of pavement performance. Finally, yet another classic Aussie muscle car appears in the pack: the 1972 Ford Falcon XA GT-HO. For those interested in the new rides, this car pack is included in the Forza Horizon 3 Car Pass, or can be purchased on its own. If only one or two vehicles are must-haves, it's also possible to purchase the cars individually.

Tina Fey sits down with Seinfeld for new CiCGC

Thu, 30 Jan 2014

Recently Jerry Seinfeld went out for a videotaped cup of coffee with Jay Leno in a vintage Gmund Porsche. Switching coasts and cars, this time New York's own son returns to his city for a jaunt in a 1967 Volvo 1800S with fellow New Yorker Tina Fey for the latest episode of Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee.
The trip takes them uptown to Cuban coffee shop Floridita in Harlem, then back downtown to a pastry shop. On the way, Jerry calls out a photo shoot for using a fake Porsche, and Fey admits she doesn't have a driver's license. Driving cars, she says, "is like Twitter to me." Which she also doesn't do - she lasted seven tweets in 2009.
You can check out the episode below as they go in search of coffee, the rare guanabana/soursop juice, Jerry's even more elusive product placement and the last Cronut in NYC.
