1991 Volvo 240 Base Wagon 4-door 2.3l on 2040-cars
Hagerstown, Maryland, United States
|
My mother-in-law bought this car used, but had it thoroughly checked out before doing so. She drove it gently and treated it like a second child, babying it and making sure it always got the best of care by a mechanic who worked almost exclusively with Volvos. She fixed it up a great deal before gifting it to us, with the intent that it would last us at least a good 100,000 more miles. Unfortunately we have fallen on hard times and would like to sell the car.
It has a newly rebuilt engine which is very clean. It runs GREAT, is extremely reliable, the AC is like a glacier blowing at you and the heat is volcanic. They work wonderfully! The back seat folds down and the car runs like a dream. Every now and then, it may feel a little rough if it's been sitting for too long without being driven, but that clears up when you take it for a drive. The stereo, speakers and dome light don't work, and would need to be replaced. We didn't bother with that when we got it because it simply wasn't that important to us. It needs a few more things, which is why the price is marked down from $10,000.00 to $9,000.00. The main things it needs are tires, an alignment (the reason it needs tires), and an enclosure for a turn signal (got broken trying to get it out of the ice this past winter). It had a few small rust spots which have been treated so they will not continue to grow and create a problem, but it could use a little paint touch-up in those spots. |

Volvo S60 Polestar Concept finally spotted in the flesh
Wed, 28 Nov 2012The Volvo S60 Polestar Concept has graced the pages of Autoblog numerous times in recent memory, but we've never actually seen it in person. That is, until now.
We caught up with the blazing blue sedan sitting on the floor of the LA Auto Show, and it looks even better up close. As a refresher, the four-door is fitted with a turbocharged inline six-cylinder engine (3.0-liter) generating an impressive 508 horsepower. Its close-ratio six-speed manual gearbox sends power to all four wheels through a fourth-generation Haldex XWD system. With a decent driver behind the steering wheel, the Polestar can crack the 60 mph benchmark in about 3.7 seconds as it rushes towards a top speed in excess of 186 mph.
Volvo has said that this Polestar-modified S60 was built for a specific client who paid upwards of $300,000 for the pleasure of owning it. But as they say, if there is market demand for more...
Two more Volvo Concept C Coupe teasers drop [w/videos]
Wed, 28 Aug 2013Volvo is planning to take the wraps off its Concept C Coupe tomorrow ahead of an official unveiling at the Frankfurt Motor Show. If you just can't wait until then, though, Volvo has released two more teaser videos for the new concept.
Like the video from earlier in the week, we get a couple more sneak peeks of the stylish two-door including our first glimpse of the interior. The highly conceptual concept likely hints at a future coupe for the Swedish automaker, and after dropping the C30 and C70 from its lineup over the last couple years, this can't come soon enough. Scroll down to watch both new teaser videos, and stay tuned to see more on this car tomorrow.
Watch this video, then buy this 1993 Volvo wagon
Mon, 12 May 2014Do you want to be perceived as rich and cuddly? Of course you do. Then you need to buy this car.
We know it makes no sense, but that pretty much sums up our take on the video you'll see below, in which a man by the name of Christoffer Castor, from Scania County in Southern Sweden, attempts to convince any and all who watch to buy his car. The car in question is a 1993 Volvo 240 wagon, in red with a black fabric interior.
We have quite a bit of respect for the old boxy Volvo wagons here at Autoblog, and, despite the presence of some unsightly rust on the tailgate, would gladly bum about in this particular 240. We especially appreciate the five-speed manual gearbox and that it's from the car's final year in production.
