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. |

Automotive April Fools' joke roundup [w/videos]
Mon, 01 Apr 2013Happy April, everyone. And we all know what this first day of the month means: April Fools' Day. Today is a national holiday for pranksters with the Internet acting as a serious enabler, and it's always fun to see what kind of vivid imaginations exist out there in the automotive world. The abundance of fake news gets a little old as the day rolls on, but we did manage to get in a few chuckles thanks to a handful of major automakers and automotive news outlets that got into the pranking spirit this year
Some of our favorites this year includes Subaru showing what happens when you combine a bunch of rumors, a Corvette some may have already thought was a joke or Honda providing some in-car innovation circa the late 1980s. Honestly, we're still waiting for official confirmation from Mitsubishi that the recently introduced 2014 Mirage is an elaborate April Fools' joke using a failed design intended for the 1995 Geo Metro. We dug up as much "official" OEM foolishness we could find, as well as some of our other favorites, and posted them all below.
10 best new car deals in late September 2021
Wed, Sep 29 2021New car sales were drastically affected in 2020 due to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, but things started to show signs of recovery toward the end of the year before really coming on strong in the early months of 2021. Now there's an ongoing shortage of microchips causing a great deal of pricing fluctuation and a limited supply of certain vehicles. That doesn't mean there aren't still great deals on new cars, though. Using data provided by TrueCar, we’ve compiled a list of some of the best automotive deals for September 2021. WeÂ’ve noted the original MSRP, the average transaction price, and the total savings in both dollars and as a percentage of the original sticker price. Basically, weÂ’ve done all the hard work for you! So now, all you need to do is compare deals, go on a few test drives, and maybe drive away in a great car (and an even better bargain).
Volvo Trucks makes some pretty strong brakes
Mon, 05 May 2014Often dashcam footage from Russia shows some of the worst driving imaginable, but this is an exception. The Volvo truck driver in this video definitely earned himself a drink or two at the end of the day after making it through this potentially horrific crash. As do the folks at Volvo that engineered those brakes.
The truck driver shows some fantastic reaction time as the silver hatchback suddenly pulls out of an intersection. It looks like he only has a few yards to bring the behemoth to a stop before demolishing the little car. While it's an impressive feat, the best part of the video has to be the driver's bow when he gets out of the truck. He looks like a maestro who just finished conducting a symphony asking for a round of applause.
Scroll down to check out this truck driver's skills and see if he earns his bow afterward.
