This is a 1992 Volvo 240. It's a solid dependable car with good points and not so good points. Please allow me to detail everything I know:
Good points:
1. Engine seems to run very well
2. Transmission seems to shift smoothly and properly
3. No visible fluid leaks or smoke
4. Power windows and power locks all work; headlights and taillights are not cracked and they work.
5. This is a non-turbo 2.3cyl so it gets really great gas mileage.
Not so good points:
1. The blower motor for the heat and A/C does not come on. I do not know why. It could be a fuse or it could need a new blower motor; it has not been diagnosed by a technician yet.
2. The freon has leaked out of the A/C system. I do not know why.
3. The odometer stopped working at 152K miles so the actual mileage is unknown. My guess is that it is around 175K-200K but I can not say for sure. The other instrument cluster functions--such as the speedometer and fuel gauge--still work fine.
4. The tires are not great and should probably be replaced. In addition, the spare is currently mounted on the car because of a blowout of one of the tires.
5. The interior is is need of a thorough cleaning.
6. The paint or clear coat on the roof and the trunk lid has oxidized.
7. The radio antenna should be replaced. The radio does not work because it needs a code and I can't find the code.
8. The grill should probably be replaced since the bottom mounting tabs are broken off and the Volvo sticker is missing from the middle.
9. We haven't been driving it alot lately and the battery seems a little weak as a result. Also, I left the lights on the other day which made it go partially dead. I jump started it and drove it for a day and it seems basically fine but it seems a little weak when starting. It should probably be tested and/or replaced. I noticed that when I jumped it off it started super powerfully but when I went to start it today it started fine but it was a little weaker than when I started it with jumper cables attached. So I think the battery should be checked out. Once started it runs fine of course; it just seems a little weaker than maybe it should be when you go to start it.
10. There are two small rock chips in the windshield. Neither one is in the driver's view path and neither one has spread beyond a tiny starburst.
11. Many little trim pieces both inside and out are damaged or missing and there are various dents or damage to be found in various spots around the car. The car has at least average wear and tear for the year, possibly above average. I don't really feel like listing every dent, scratch and missing or damaged trim piece but you will find several throughout the car.
The bottom line is this: it's a solid dependable car that runs and drives well. The outstanding issues do not prevent the car from being driven across the country right now. The really important stuff is working fine. With a little bit of investment this could be a very nice car again.
There is a $300 deposit due immediately via Paypal in order to end the auction. The remaining $1000 is due in cash when you pick up the car. I am giving you 31 calendar days after ending the auction to pick up the car and pay the remaining balance of $1000 in cash. If the car is not picked up within 31 days of the auction close the $300 deposit will be forfeited. There are no exceptions to this policy so please do not use Buy-it-Now until you are confident that you can pick up the car within 31 days and pay the remaining balance of $1000 in cash.
If you are a Georgia resident please contact me before using buy-it-now since there are new tax laws we need to discuss.
Lastly, it may go without saying but this car is sold AS-IS with no warranties of any kind expressed or implied. I am not warranting any aspect of this vehicle's operation or condition. I have attempted to tell you everything I know about the car but I am not an automotive technician and the vehicle has not been inspected by one prior to the sale. Your purchase of the car implies your agreement with these statements.
Thanks for looking and have a great day!

Volvo Concept Estate is a brown shooting brake, need we say more?
Wed, 26 Feb 2014Set for a debut at the 2014 Geneva Motor Show next week, images of the Volvo Concept Estate have found their way onto the web courtesy of Jalopnik. If the Concept Coupe from Frankfurt were a modern P1800, the Concept Estate is a modern P1800ES.
We briefly detailed the finale to Volvo's trio of concept cars earlier this week, when images of it poked out finished in a custom car cover. Now, with a batch of uncovered images at hand, we're able to see just how pretty this brown beauty really is.
Below the beltline, this is pretty much the Concept Coupe, featuring the same T-shaped headlights and wide, rectangular grille. Above the beltline, though, things get fun. The long, glass roof terminates in a squat, wide rear end which is set off by a pair of meaty haunches. The taillights, meanwhile, expand on the style shown on Volvo's Detroit concept, the Concept XC Coupe. And that hatch opens up into a rather cavernous rear end.
Volvo's latest export from Sweden: paid parental leave
Tue, Mar 30 2021STOCKHOLM — Volvo Cars will offer all its employees worldwide 24 weeks paid parental leave in a bid to support female executives and equal parenting. The carmaker, which is based in Sweden but owned by China's Geely Holding, has over 40,000 employees. From next month, all staff who have worked in Volvo plants and offices for at least a year will be entitled to the leave each time they have a child and will receive 80% of their base pay during the period, the company said on Tuesday. Sweden is one of few countries that already offers leave by law for either parent. "Some countries do not offer any paid leave to new parents, or exclude certain groups of parents – the latter is particularly true for fathers," the company, which previously did not have a global policy but adapted to local regulations, said in a statement. Around a third of Volvo's senior managers are currently female. The company aims to raise that share to 50%, a spokeswoman said, adding that Volvo's new policy will improve conditions for staff on parental leave not least in China and the United States. "When parents are supported to balance the demands of work and family, it helps to close the gender gap and allows everyone to excel in their careers," said Volvo Cars CEO Hakan Samuelsson. The global policy applies to either parent and the leave can be taken anytime within the first three years of parenthood. In Sweden, new parents are in general entitled by law to around a year of parental leave on up to 80% pay. Â
Top torque-to-weight ratios under $100k, $50k and $25k
Tue, 07 Oct 2014Horsepower may steal a lot of headlines, but the always-more-complex torque figure is often a critical one for both the workingman and the motoring playboy. The measure of rotational force represents the twist that can liquefy one's tires or haul one's horse trailer. Good stuff.
It follows then, that as with the horsepower-to-weight list that we assembled for you a few months ago, a list of cars that offer the most pound-feet with the fewest pounds to carry, is an interesting one to break down. Sure, there's a big difference in how the torque is applied from a turbocharged six-cylinder in a Swedish luxury sedan and a massive heavy-duty truck's turbo-diesel. But being the car/stat geeks that we are, we think it's kinda neat that those two vehicles rank near each other where torque and weight intersect.
As with the horsepower list, we've given you figures as pounds per every one pound-foot. Again broken down into broad price categories, we've got a mixed bag of 2014 and 2015 models here, too. Every effort has been made to select the most up-to-date prices and specs, and we've also to omitted some '14 cars that won't be re-upped after the ongoing yearly changeover.
