For sale is my 1991 Volvo 240. The car has been great to me over the time I have owned it, and I would not hesitate to drive it anywhere. This is a special delivery diplomat car that was originally bought in Sweden by the previous owner. I am actually the second owner of the car. It features, Anit-lock brakes, power windows, power door locks, and cruise control. They all function as they should as well. The car is slightly lowered to give a little better stance and a better look. It also features a few extras that I added on. It has black turbo trim, that I repainted. It also features 16" 740 turbo rims. The rims have two tires that are almost new, however, the other two have ok tread buy are worn very crooked. I also added in the stock Volvo small tach in the dash. The car has an Alpine head unit and Infinity 5.25's in the front in the stock Volvo surrounds. There are many new parts on the car which include:

Completely repainted - Dec' 12
New radiator - Jan '13
New timing belt and water pump - Jan '12
Fresh tune up (plugs, wires, car, rotor, air filter) - Mar '13
New back half of exhaust with a Thrush glass pack muffler and straight tip Feb - '13 (One rear exhaust hanger fell off so the exhaust rattles a bit now)

Rear lights hardwired to bypass printed circuit.  -  Feb '13

The car drives great as is but has a few little things that could use some attention. First off the odometer in the car does not work (a very common problem for these). It has been stuck at 206,000 since I bought the car. It has approximately 235,000 miles on it at this point. The AC does not work. It may just need a charge but I have never investigated the issue. It needs a new overdrive solenoid, as it sometimes does not like to shift into overdrive right away. I actually have a brand new one, but it is just not installed at the moment. Also, the blower motor makes a lot of noise at times. It does work on all settings but can be loud at times. There is a slight leak in the heater core, as when the heat is on the windows like to fog up. Finally, the left hood hinge has a slight bend in it and thus makes the hood sit a slight bit out of alignment. I do have a good replacement, however, it is tan. This will be included with the car. The check engine light is on (has been since I got the car). These issues do not effect the driveability of the car, and as I said I would not hesitate to drive it anywhere. 

This car has been great to me and I am very sad to see her go, but I recently acquired a new car and I can't afford to keep all of them. That is the only reason I'm selling.  Thanks for looking. The car is listed for sale locally and I reserve the right to end auction early.

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.

Celebrate Volvo's 89th birthday with some neat facts

Thu, Apr 14 2016

Volvo, arguably Sweden's best-known non-ABBA export, will celebrate the big 9-0 next year. The company has always operated somewhat under the radar, but it has its share of stories to tell despite an image formed by decades of solid, safe, and sensible cars. To celebrate the occasion, here are five lesser-known facts about Sweden's last remaining car brand. 1. It opened North America's first foreign car plant. Idyllic Halifax was a small fishing city of about a quarter-million in the early 1960s when Volvo arrived and became the first import brand to build cars en masse in North America. American consumers on the East Coast developed a fondness for the Volvo Amazon line in the late 1950s, leading Volvo to seek out a plant in the Americas. Halifax ponied up incentives, allowing Volvo to take advantage of a pact eliminating tariffs on cars built and exported between the United States and Canada. Volvo built cars there until the end of 1998, when it said its facility was no longer viable compared to larger factories in Europe. That brings us to The Netherlands, where Volvo bought a quirky, innovative automaker that once sold a car called the Daffodil (which was actually its luxury model). 2. You can thank Volvo for CVTs – even though it doesn't use them. Volvo wasn't interested in picking flowers. It wanted the automotive arm of truck manufacturer DAF, which would include its assembly plant, its Renault engines, and the first mainstream application of the CVT gearbox. Volvo acquired DAF's car business over the course of a few years in the early 1970s and, in typical Volvo safety-oriented style, it slapped big bumpers and head restraints on the little DAF 66 and rebadged it as the Volvo 66. The Dutch assembly plant would grow to include a partnership with Mitsubishi in the early '90s. Today, it operates as NedCar and builds Mini Coopers for BMW. Volvo is no longer involved in NedCar or DAF (which sold its CVT division to Bosch, by the way), but its acquisition of DAF helped ensure the success of CVTs. Ironically, even though Volvo's investment helped make CVTs mainstream, the Swedish automaker's affair with them was brief, and today it utilizes only conventional automatics. 3. The Swedish carmakers were pals. Over its 89 years, Volvo has been closely connected to a number of automakers – most notably Ford, which ran the company for a decade, and its current owner Geely. But Volvo is most closely linked to its longtime competitor, Saab.
