1991 Volvo 740 Base Wagon 4-door 2.3l Daily Driver-lots Of New Parts-runs Great on 2040-cars
Colorado Springs, Colorado, United States
|
I bought this car last week after selling my 4x4. Although it has plenty of room, runs great and is in great condition, I am not used to sitting down so low! So I am listing it for sale and probably going to buy something that sits up a bit higher!
Runs good, looks good. This is NOT a turbo so it gets good gas mileage. I am including a TomTom GPS because the speedometer does not work and the TomTom shows your speed. Has a nice sound system and speakers with CD player. All leather interior - feels like you are sitting on the couch at home when driving - it is SOOO COMFY! The former owner recently had lots of upkeep and maintenance done to it such as new brakes, new tires, new timing belt, new battery, oil change, tune up, exhaust work. This is from what he told me last week and what he had posted in his ad. It has a newer muffler which sounds like a subaru. I require a $100 NON-REFUNDABLE DEPOSIT through PayPay within 24 hours of auction closing. Then I require the balance IN CASH when we meet IN PERSON to deliver the car to you. I am in Colorado Springs, Colorado. I will make a reasonable effort to deliver the car nearby. For example, if you are in Denver and have transportation difficulties, I may deliver it to you and take a bus home BUT this is entirely up to my discretion and work schedule. Most likely, you will need to take a bus to me and drive it home. Everything works and is good on this car except the specifics that are mentioned below: Windshield has crack & will need to be replaced, rear driver side taillight is cracked, small dent next to driver side headlight, scratch on driver side door near bottom. Speedometer & gas gauge do not work - BUT I am including a TomTom GPS which shows your MPH. (Mechanic has suggested that ground wire may be off in dash) A/C may need charge. Sunroof works but needs new seal - has tape sealing it now. I have included photos specifically of these issues. There are no guarantees whatsoever on this car as I have only had it for one week but the prior owner had maintained it well. |

Volvo won't go after S-Class, 7 Series market
Mon, 22 Apr 2013Volvo vice president of powertrain engineering, Derek Crabb, recently said that the Swedish automaker is developing smaller and smarter powertrain options that will "turn V8s into dinosaurs" - a statement that could have been our first indication that Volvo is no longer looking to create a luxury flagship sedan to take on German land yachts like the Mercedes-Benz S-Class, Audi A8 and BMW 7 Series. Now Automotive News seems to be backing this up after speaking with CEO Hakan Samuelsson, who said that a big sedan wouldn't fit the brand's green image and, more importantly, might not even be a car that its customers would even consider.
Rather than trying to compete in a small, established market against rear-drive, 12-cylinder sedans, Volvo is looking at the emerging, higher-volume premium small car segment to take on its German rivals with the all-new Volvo V40 (shown above). Not wanting to abandon the big-vehicle segment altogether, a next-generation XC90 is due out within the next couple years (and was spotted in some recent spy shots), and it will ride on the new Scalable Platform Architecture (SPA), which will be shared with the new S80 according to the AN article.
Volvo confirms return of the wagon with V60 headed to US
Wed, 27 Mar 2013Turns out that promised new production Volvo model for the United States is indeed the V60 wagon, as we had previously predicted. And it's not terribly surprising, as Volvo has a long and storied history of wagon sales in the US, from the old, loveable 240 to the more recent high-performance V70R. And yet the automaker hasn't had a proper non-XC, non-crossover-style wagon in the US since it pulled the V70 away at the end of the 2010 model year.
"The new Volvo V60 is for people who want the handling of a dynamic sports sedan but need the versatility of a wagon," says Volvo, highlighting the reason many of us on the Autoblog team harbor such fondness for wagons in general.
Volvo is currently showing off the R-Design package for its entire model line, including the V60, at the New York Auto Show. We don't know for sure if the V60 will launch with the R-Design package or if it will come at a later date, and we also see no mention of a Polestar edition, though we're hopeful.
New Volvo ad remembers the joy of rear-facing jump seats
Mon, 19 May 2014With the rise in popularity of first the minivan and later the crossover as the default family vehicle, there have been about 20 years of children who have missed out on the joy of rear-facing jump seats in station wagons. It means kids today don't know the pleasure to be found in making faces or lewd gestures at other drivers while their parents can't see. Plus, they don't know the slightly nauseous feeling of watching the world pass by in reverse. However, a group of filmmakers look back with nostalgia at this increasingly uncommon automotive feature in a new ad for the 2015 Volvo V60.
As part of its sponsorship of the National Film Festival for Talented Youth, Volvo commissions a team each year to create an advertisement to be shown during the festival. This year's shows how the company's buyers have gone from riding in the back to driving the brand's cars. Scroll down to check out the charming ad, along with some wistful looks at classic Volvo wagons, before the jump seat is forgotten.
