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...

2015 Volvo XC90 proves Sweden's auto industry is alive and well [w/video]

Fri, 03 Oct 2014

The most important new Volvo in quite some time has made its first auto show appearance, with the second-generation XC90 debuting at the 2014 Paris Motor Show.
As we discussed in both our original post and Deep Dive feature, the new XC90 remains a three-row crossover for 2015, although it ditches the first-gen model's top-end, turbocharged six-cylinder in favor of a single twin-charged, 2.0-liter, four-cylinder engine. By pairing that with a plug-in-electric powertrain, the king of the XC90 range, the T8 TwinEngine, will offer up 400 horsepower. So yeah, performance should be brisk.
Also appearing on 2015 XC90 will be an entirely new, Apple CarPlay-compatible infotainment system with a big, vertical touchscreen display at its heart. Based on the videos we've seen, the new system looks responsive, feature-laden and quite attractive.

Sunday Drive: Taking a gaze into the automotive crystal ball

Sun, Oct 22 2017

Mankind has long been fascinated by the future. So it makes sense that this past week's top stories were all about cars, trucks, and SUVs that won't be hitting the market until the 2019 model year. And right at the top of the list is the Ram 1500. We've come to know Ram as the truck maker that styles its pickups with cues cribbed from big rigs, but that look has slowly evolved over time into something uniquely its own. The next Ram 1500 continues this trend, with a newly refined look that we can't wait to see in person. Up next is the 2019 Chevy Silverado. Pickup trucks have been, continue to be, and will remain the best-selling vehicles in America. And General Motors is a leader in the field, with two distinct offerings with which to entice buyers, one from the bread-and-butter Chevrolet brand and one wearing the slightly more upscale GMC badge. The Chevy looks to get LED lighting elements for 2019, which ought to keep the truck from looking dated when compared to the Ford F-150 and the previously mentioned Ram 1500. From there we move past pickup trucks and into SUVs and sedans. The 2019 Jeep Cherokee looks to get toned down a bit with its next refresh, and the '19 BMW 3 Series continues its slow evolutionary journey at the top of its aspirational sales pedestal. Finally, spy shots give way to official production reveals for the 2019 Audi A7 and Polestar 1. This pair of European luxury cars won't compete with one another – one is a rakish hatchback and the other a sports coupe – any further than for the eyeballs of our readers, but both proved popular enough to merit inclusion in our weekly roundup. As always, tune in to Autoblog next week for a front-row seat to all the happenings worth following in the automotive industry. 2019 Ram 1500 spotted without the classic crosshairs 2019 Chevy Silverado spied with new LED accents 2019 Jeep Cherokee reveals a much more normal face 2019 BMW 3 Series spy shots reveal production lights, new interior details 2019 Audi A7 revealed: More torque, refined styling Polestar 1 First Look | The 600 horsepower hybrid Scandinavian Green Audi BMW Chevrolet Jeep RAM Volvo Truck Hatchback SUV Future Vehicles Hybrid Luxury Performance Sedan sunday drive polestar 1

Volvo teases mysterious new small crossover

Thu, 16 May 2013

The image you see above is just about all we know of the new Volvo crossover that will be revealed at 8:30 pm Central European Time on May 17 (2:30 pm Eastern Standard Time). Volvo released three very short video teasers, all with the tagline "Leave The World Behind," all of which feature a member of the now-defunct band Swedish House Mafia - Axwell sits in a boat in the first, Sebastian Ingrosso walks toward cabin in the second and Steve Angello stares at the sea in a third.
A microsite, www.leavetheworldbehind.com, accompanies the teasers and it's been said that a short film by Lune will feature the band - Swedish Mafia had a hit in 2009 with the song Leave the World Behind. As for the vehicle, theories are that it could be something between the V40 Cross Country and XC60, the new XC90 or something else entirely. We don't have long to wait, and you can watch both teasers below.
