1991 Volvo 240 Station Wagon Beautiful Shape, Low Miles on 2040-cars
West Palm Beach, Florida, United States
1991 Volvo 240 Station Wagon. The little station wagon runs very well, it handles great, drives straight, tight and solid like it should. Very well maintained by an owner with vehicular OCD! lol 139600 original miles showing on a working odometer. 4 Cylinder engine with Automatic transmission that shifts smoothly. Power windows (All work) Cold A/C (Brand new evaporator core, newer compressor and dryer, Repair total was $1800.00) AM/FM/CD aftermarket system. The clock in the dash works and keeps time! Timing belt replaced about 2 years ago. Newer brakes. Disc brakes all around. Tuned up about 6 months ago, plugs, wires, belts, hoses etc. New ECU ($500.00) also about 6 months ago. When replaced, I opted for one with a 5 year warranty rather than a 2 year for an extra $200.00 bucks. Goodyear tires with probably 90% of their tread remaining (matching set). Paint is in very nice condition, I had the hood and roof painted about a year ago as they were starting to fade. Overall, there are a few hard to locate scratches on the car, and the tailgate has a two small dings (pictured), other than that, the old girl looks like a car that is 1/10 her age. Always a Florida car. Privacy tinted rear windows. All lights work, including the rear third tailgate brake light. Interior (original navy Blue) is in really nice condition, seats show some wear, but not much, door panels are excellent as are the door map pockets, dash is nice, seats both front and rear are in good shape. Carpet which has been protected by the Volvo all weather floor mats is in really nice condition. There is also an all weather mat for the rear cargo area carpet as well (not pictured, it was in the garage when I did the cars photo shoot). Rear cargo roll up cover, it doesn’t retract well. Headliner is good. And
for the cons: Both
horn and cruise control work intermittently, the horn issue is recent, the
cruise hasn’t worked in the 4+ years I’ve had the wagon. I’d
replaced the center console between the front seats and it never fit quite
right. Outer
rubber door window seals are showing their age and have some cracking
(pictured). Stereo
speakers aren’t all that great. Either the ones in the front doors don’t work,
or I’ve got the fade and balance on the radio adjusted incorrectly. The
“burned out bulb warning light” on the dash illuminates on and off when the
lights are on. I’ve found no burned out bulbs, I’ve replaced all the bulbs in
an effort to fix this issue, but to no avail. Any questions, feel free to shoot me an email.
If you are local (or even if you’re not) and would like to inspect the car prior to bidding, let me know and we can certainly make arrangements for you to do so. Thanks. |

Volvo still undecided on offering plug-in hybrid versions of all models
Thu, 03 Jul 2014The automotive world is only a few months away from getting its first real glimpse at Volvo's big gamble with the unveiling of the next-generation XC90 (pictured above as the Concept XC Coupe). We're already getting a preview of the revolutionary upgrades with the introduction of the Swede's Volvo Engine Architecture family into some of its 2015 models, like the recently driven S60. These changes are just the start, though. The real magic could be in the powertrains.
Dean Shaw, Volvo Cars North America vice president of corporate communications hinted to Autoblog a few months ago that every model sold in the US could come in a plug-in hybrid variant, starting with the new XC90. Despite confirmation rumors that this has now come to pass, Shaw told AutoblogGreen that the only thing Volvo is confirming right now is that the platform is capable of that. "We haven't confirmed that all US Volvos would be available with PHEV," he said.
Shaw did confirm that that XC90 will come with a gas and plug-in hybrid powertrain that offers "around 400 horsepower." According to Plugin Cars, the new XC90 will be unveiled in August and will make its public debut at an as-yet-unnamed auto show in the fall. Also, sometime during the 2016 model year, a plug-in hybrid variant will be added to its lineup.
Volvo confirms V60 Sportswagon engine lineup for US
Fri, 13 Sep 2013
In addition to revamping its entire 2014 lineup, Volvo has already promised us that we'll be getting the V60 wagon early next year, but now the Swedish automaker has confirmed that sexy wagon will go on sale in January. If that's not good enough for you diehard station wagon models, there's even better news: An available R-Design model will be the "fastest and most powerful wagon in Volvo history."
The V60 R-Design will have a turbocharged inline six-cylinder engine under the hood producing 325 horsepower and 354 pound-feet of torque. Other engines available in the wagon will include the company's well-regarded turbo inline-five along with a new turbo inline-four wearing the Drive-E name. Volvo says Drive-E can "offer the opportunity" to add electrification, but there's no word as to whether or not the US will receive a V60 plug-in model. Also not yet released are fuel economy, vehicle specs and pricing. More information about the V60 and its powertrains are available in the official press release posted below.
Volvo P1800-based gasser is UK's entry in the Hot Wheels Legends Tour
Fri, Oct 15 2021Hot Wheels has spent the past few months touring the United States in search of the next custom car it will add to its catalog of 1/64-scale diecast models. It's not stopping there: It also headed to the United Kingdom to add a bit of international flair to the competition, and it selected a Volvo P1800 that has been heavily modified into a gasser as the winner that will move on to the semifinal round. Owner Lee Johnstone explained he built his P1800 — which he nicknamed "Ain't no Saint" — starting with a bare shell that had been stripped and that was too far gone to properly restore. Volvo's 1960s four-cylinder engines are famously tunable, but Johnstone looked across the pond for an engine suitable to make his dream car a reality. He chose a 454-cubic-inch V8 sourced from the Chevrolet parts bin and supercharged to develop about 600 horsepower. Ain't no Saint reportedly runs a 10.01-second quarter mile at 133 mph. Johnstone regularly races the P1800 with his three daughters. He consequently named his team Johnstone & Daughters (JD) Racing. "This is a beautiful example of a gasser — a drag racer with street car form. Often with dragsters, the chassis is so important that the body gets overlooked, but this example is fabulous with great attention to detail," explained former Jaguar design director Ian Callum, who was one of the judges that selected the P1800 as the United Kingdom's finalist. "It completely hits the Hot Wheels brief." Hot Wheels has already released several gassers, including one based on a 1955 Chevrolet Bel Air. Time will tell if Johnstone's P1800 will become the next addition to the series. Its next stop is the global semifinal round scheduled for November 4, 2021, where it will compete against some of the previous winners. There are two semifinal rounds taking place before the grand finale planned for November 13.
