1990 Volvo 240 Dl Sedan 4-door 2.3l on 2040-cars
Oak Ridge, Tennessee, United States
This vehicle was purchased as part of an estate sale. The original husband/wife owners from North Carolina kept this vehicle garaged and serviced for approximately 23 years ! This car is in MINT condition for the year. You would be hard-pressed to find a nicer, cleaner and more beautiful 1990 Volvo 240 DL ! The safety & reliability of the Volvo 240 is legendary. This car is a TANK and is in stunning condition. A stack of maintenance paperwork, the original owners manual and 2 sets of keys for this Volvo. This vehicle always starts on the first try and simply floats down the highway -- drives SO good, you would never know the car was almost 25 years old ! We would definitely be keeping this one but we are getting a new Acura and unfortunately the Acura will get the Volvo's spot in the garage. This vehicle has been garaged and protected all of its life and we just don't want it to sit outside (and we don't really have the space for it). The exterior paint is in GORGEOUS condition with no signs of rust anywhere. I cannot even find a door-ding which is amazing for a 25 year old car. The interior is a medium blue color and is in extra good condition. The headliner (white headliner) is nearly PERFECT! Seat upholstery and carpet are incredibly clean. This would be a perfect first car or a car for the Volvo enthusiast. The odometer stopped working at 200,625 miles (this is a very common problem with the Volvo 240's). The odometer can be repaired at a Volvo dealership or you could probably find a mechanic to fix this. On the last trip to get the oil changed, the mechanic said the vehicle probably has approximately 220K miles would be his best guess. He also stated he had never seen a 240 come in to his shop in such great condition. I was told that the air conditioner requires a freon charge every summer/every other summer. This vehicle has all of the original Volvo glass (no cracks, chips, etc). to have original glass all the way around on a car nearly 25 years old is remarkable. We are located close to the Knoxville TN area. If you want the car shipped, you will be responsible for setting all of that up. We have Greyhound Bus Station, MegaBus and an airport all in close proximity. If you have any questions you can contact me at 865.235.4805 (please contact me before 10PM EST). If you would like additional pics, please let me know. Thanks and Happy Bidding ! :)

Sunday Drive: And now for something completely different
Sun, Dec 17 2017This past week played host to a wide assortment of automotive news, highlighted by our first drive of the 2018 Volvo XC40. The Swedish crossover is targeted at young, successful Millennials, but it offers cool styling, fun dynamics, and all of today's must-have technology, so we think it ought to appeal to a much wider swath of the automotive marketplace. From there we answer the question, "What are hard on the outside and soft on the inside?" as we take a look at the next Mercedes-Benz G-Class SUV. We expect the German automaker's flagship luxury SUV to remain boxy on the outside, but the interior is going to be soft, supple, and luxurious. And then there's the Honda Clarity Plug-in Hybrid, which starts at starts at $34,290 and boasts 212 total system horsepower, 232 pound-feet of torque, 47 miles of electric driving range, and a total range of 340 miles. EPA rates it at 110 MPGe in EV mode, and 44 city/40 highway/42 combined overall. We compare it to other plug-ins like the Chevy Volt and Toyota Prius Prime. And finally we have some more spy photos of the 2019 Ram 1500. It doesn't have a traditional crosshair grille, but it's got plenty of chrome and an attractive upright stance that's sure to tempt future truck buyers looking for some sophistication to go with their work gloves. As always, stay tuned to Autoblog this week to see all the automotive news that's fit to print. 2018 Volvo XC40 First Drive Review | The Masspirational crossover Mercedes-Benz G-Class gets the luxe, high-tech treatment 2018 Honda Clarity Plug-In Hybrid Review | It's what's on the inside that counts 2019 Ram 1500 shows chrome grille and more production parts Green Honda Mercedes-Benz RAM Volvo Technology Truck Crossover SUV Luxury Performance Sedan volvo xc40 sunday drive
Regulators consider adding more carmakers to Takata recall
Tue, Sep 29 2015Volkswagen's diesel emissions scandal has been getting a lot of press recently, but the Takata airbag inflator affair could be grabbing headlines again soon. According to Bloomberg, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is contemplating an expansion to the campaign that could add seven automakers to the 12 already affected. They are Jaguar Land Rover, Mercedes-Benz, Spartan Motors, Suzuki, Tesla, Volvo Trucks, and VW Group. To be clear, there's no recall for any of these automakers, yet. The government is simply asking for a full list of vehicles that each of them have with Takata-supplied inflators containing ammonium nitrate propellant. The agency is concerned this substance could play a roll in the ruptures. "NHTSA is considering not only whether to issue an administrative order that would coordinate the remedy programs associated with the current Takata recalls, but also whether such an order should include expansion of the current recalls," the letters say. All seven can be viewed, here. From a report supplied by Takata, the government already knows that the company supplied 887,055 inflators with ammonium-nitrate propellant to VW and 184,926 of them to Tesla. In an incident during the summer, a side airbag allegedly burst in a 2015 VW Tiguan. In early September, NHTSA put out a revised report that there were 23.4 million inflators to be replaced in 19.2 million vehicles in the US. An earlier accounting from the agency had about 34 million of the parts in 30 million cars. High humidity is still believed to be among the biggest risk factors for the ruptures. Although, if ammonium nitrate also gets the blame, some already recalled models might need to be repaired again. Related Video:
Volvo Concept XC Coupe leaked [w/video] [UPDATE]
Tue, 07 Jan 2014Last month, Volvo gave us a teaser of its new Concept XC Coupe, set to debut at the Detroit Auto Show. And now, just a few days before the doors open at Cobo Hall, leaked images of the stylish new crossover showcar have leaked online, courtesy of CarBuyer.co.uk.
The Concept XC Coupe is a sort of high-riding successor to the very attractive Concept Coupe that wowed us at the 2013 Frankfurt Motor Show. With its burlier dimensions and hatchback configuration, the Concept XC gives us a better glimpse at Volvo's new styling direction, which is expected to debut in production form on the next-generation XC90 crossover. We've already seen some leaked sketches of the new XC90, and it sure does look like this Concept XC.
We don't have any further details about the Concept XC Coupe, but from the images, we can see that it will use a four-passenger seating configuration, with rear seats that fold flat. There are also exterior badges for surround radar and a 360-degree camera system, suggesting some new safety tech fitting of safety-minded brand.
