** NO RESERVE ** Please read entire description before bidding. Contact me first if you have zero or negative feedback please. I recently bought this car with the plans to freshen it up but also came across another project that now is taking up my garage space. I'd rather not store the 240 this winter. It has lots of positives; - It's the manual 5 speed (which is very rare in a late model 240 wagon) - Low miles 123K - Service book stamped by dealer through 80K miles - Literally every receipt since new (has to be an inch stack of receipts) - Clutch done at 80K - Clean Carfax - no accidents - No CEL or other lights lit - Map pockets intact. - Recent steering rack replacement - Recent timing belt and water pump - Very minimal rust Fairly well optioned - heated seats, power mirrors, power windows - AC that works. It's not without it's flaws tho; - Paintwork below the belt line on passenger side and tailgate - likely due to a scratch down that side of the car. - Needs front tires - Rear brakes squeak/rumble a little - Numerous dings and scratches - AC sweats when running (small water puddle on drivers floor) - Runs fantastic but at idle it has a little sputter (likely just a tune up) - Interior could use a good cleaning - Clock and central locking fuse is out b/c it drains the battery (looks like there is a wire in the hatch hinge that broke - I suspect that it has something to do with that) It was just inspected in MA So it's good for another year (good until the end of August 2015). The garage that inspected it mentioned that a good percentage of these cars fail because of the rust/rot on the rear suspension - he said this car was in excellent shape in that regard. Passed the inspection just fine. Anyway, it's either sell it or store it. I don't want to waste anyone's time - if you are looking for a perfect one - this is not it. If you are looking for one that has low miles and a 5-speed and will probably run another 200K that needs some work while you drive it - this may be it. Sold as-is where-is. Thanks! |

Volvo S80 nip/tuck spotted in China
Sun, 16 Dec 2012An early look at the new face of the Volvo S80 has made its way to the web. The Chinese site Auto Sina spotted a revised version of the country's S80L out in public and in plain view. Not too long ago, Doug Speck, the global head of marketing and sales for Volvo, said designers were working on a mild facelift for the S60 and S80, and while it is possible the Swedish manufacturer will roll out a different front fascia for the US market, the move seems unlikely.
The S80L seen here boats a tweaked grille and a Passat-inspired lower valance. New wheels and side-view mirrors also appear to be part of the update, as does a modified rear bumper and exhaust outlets. Volvo is set to debut the facelifed S80 next year, and while the manufacturer hasn't delivered an exact time frame, good money is on the vehicle showing up at the Detroit Auto Show in January or the Geneva Motor Show in March. Stay tuned for more information.
Volvo Concept Estate to spawn V90 luxury wagon, joining CUV and coupe
Wed, 26 Mar 2014The Volvo Concept Estate garnered Autoblog's Editors' Choice award as our team's favorite reveal at the 2014 Geneva Motor Show earlier this month for its sleek take on Scandinavian design, and now it looks like we might actually see the sleek wagon in production. Volvo is reportedly considering using the concept as the basis for a replacement for the V70 wagon, dubbing the new model V90.
It's rumored to be part of the Swedish brand's plan to launch a new range of 90-series vehicles. In addition to the more luxury-oriented wagon, the family of models includes the XC90 that is expected to debut later this year. According to MotorAuthority, Volvo is also considering using the same version of its Scalable Product Architecture that underpins the crossover to create a range-topping S90 sedan to replace the S80. Assuming it's a success, a C90 coupe is even a possibility. All of these models would be outfitted with the company's Drive-E four-cylinder engine family, which includes hybrids and plug-in hybrids.
The Swedish automaker is also looking downmarket with help from owner Geely in China with replacement 40-series models. According to MotorAuthority, the duo's rumored small car platform will be used to create an updated V40 wagon, C40 hatchback (a C30 successor), as well as an XC40 compact crossover.
Volvo dealers pushing for V40 in America [w/poll]
Mon, 26 Aug 2013Not too long ago, Volvo effectively replaced three models with one. Those were the C30, S40 and V50, and their replacement came in the form of the V40. While its predecessors were available (at some point, anyway) in North America, the V40 isn't. And that's something that Volvo's players in the US would like to change.
According to Automotive News, both Volvo Cars of North America and its dealers are pressing the factory to reverse its decision and prepare the V40 for an American assault on the likes of the Volkswagen Golf and Audi A3. It's a game they won before with the current V60, which hasn't been available here, but is set to make the transatlantic voyage come the start of the new year.
This time, though, Volvo Cars of North America may have a bigger fight on its hands, because the V40 wasn't designed to meet US regulations. Getting it up to spec, then, may be a bigger challenge than it's worth. But if the American importer and dealer network makes its voice heard, the V40's replacement could be designed with US regulations in mind.
