Up for sale is a Silver 1989 Volvo 245DL with blue leatherette interior. This survivor has 149,014 miles showing on the working odometer. This vehicle came to my Volvo repair shop in need of some TLC that the former owner was unable to provide. The poor little car was on its way to the great beyond. Being a volvo technician for the past 30 years, I could see beyond the maintenance needed and offered to purchase the vehicle. The owner and I reached a number and the work began to bring this Swedish jewel back to its former self. The car has been garage kept for most of its life, hence the immaculate paint and no rust to be found. My staff and I started with a bath and went on from there. We did all work necessary to make it reliable and safe just as Volvo did. We replaced any suspect brake component, including front brake pads, rotors, calipers and brake hoses. Rear brake pads, rotos and calipers. Brake master cylinder and junction block. We did a complete tune up including valve adjustment, Spark plugs, distributer cap, rotor, ignition wires, PCV valve, air filter, throttle plate service and adjustment. We replaced the timing belt, tensioner bearing and front engine seals. The radiator, water pump, thermostate and coolant flush were done for good measure. Before buttoning up the front we installed new drive belts. The rear tail lenses have been replaced and the tailgate got new wiring harnesses. The suspension bushings are in good shape with plenty of miles left, the rear shock absorbers are recent. The air conditioning is in excellent working order and blowing nice and cold. The paint is original and shinny, this car has never been in an accedent, the interior is in fantastic shape with no tears in the seats or carpet. This is an extremely stand up 245 ready to give many many more miles of driving pleasure and should need nothing to be a reliable car for its new owner. Please see list for a complete list of all repairs and maintenance done.

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...
Next Polestar Volvo sounds great, whatever it is
Fri, 15 Nov 2013Something - we don't know what yet - is coming from Polestar. While we'll be recovering from next week's LA Auto Show and Tokyo Motor Show (and starting to slack off ahead of an extended Thanksgiving weekend), the official tuner of Volvo products has announced plans to unveil its latest creation in less than two weeks.
Based on this video teaser, we can only imagine (and hope) that it's the souped-up Volvo V60 recently caught testing by our spy shooters. The idea of a high-performance Volvo wagon was already enough to get us giddy last month, but the exhaust note in this video is downright captivating. Scroll down to watch the teaser for yourself, and be prepared for some bright blue wagony goodness to be revealed on November 26.
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.
