1981 Bone Stock Original Volvo 244 Dl / Always Garaged / Museum Condition!!! on 2040-cars
Temecula, California, United States
I am selling my beloved 1981 VOLVO 244 DL. This DL is perhaps the nicest you will ever see. I bought it from a lady here in San Diego. She bought it when she was 50 and let it go when she was 81. The Volvo traveled only 30 miles per day when she owned it. To and from work for 31 years. She told me the furthest it ever went was 50 miles. My wife and I were lucky enough to buy it last year for her to go back and forth to work. She loved, garaged and carefully maintained the Volvo just as the original owner had done. This Volvo has been garaged its entire life. The previous owner had custom seat covers made for both the front seats. They are in perfect condition and so are the original front seat covers. If you notice in the pictures the PO even made leather hand grips on the drivers side interior door so as to not ruin the original grips. I have a detailed letter from her ( 81 years old ) that I will pass on to the winning bidder describing the Volvo and the years she owned it since new. The Volvo is Museum quality in my opinion. The original paint is in fantastic condition, interior is a 10 out of 10. There are no dents, there is no rust, the undercarriage is in great condition with no leaks, the 4 cylinder B21f ENGINE runs perfect, the Volvo transmission is in perfect running condition also, trunk is flawless, great tires, no issues with electrical, everything on this Volvo works perfectly. AC is cold, heater works perfect. Everywhere we go in this Volvo people stop to have a closer look. It is a time capsule and looks new inside and out. The pictures pretty much speak for themselves. The Volvo was always properly maintained and as a result runs perfect. IF your looking for a classic Volvo 244 and want to drive the closest thing to a new one from back then in 1981 then you should try and win this auction. It has been an honor to have owned it for the past year. I collect a variety of classics but am selling this one since my wife just bought a Toyota Avalon and has decided to go with a newer vehicle. Volvo's are very tough, run forever and are extremely comfortable to drive. They also get great fuel mileage ( approx. 25 mpg ). I do have receipts that I will pass along to the winning bidder. The Volvo is currently garaged and is NOT being driven. I have set the reserve fairly in my opinion based on the rarity and condition of this DL. It ain't cheap though so if your looking for a ''beater'' then don't bother to bid. This vehicle is either for a collector, a museum or someone who wants a classic Volvo to travel around in. I will answer all questions and post the answers on Ebay for everyone to see. I do have extra pics and can take other pics if you need some. Just email and let me know. Thanks. Globalvu3nn3.

A spotter's guide to Super Bowl LIV car commercials
Fri, Jan 31 2020Set to kick off on Fox at 6:30 ET on Sunday, February 2, from Hard Rock Stadium in Miami, Florida, the big game will feature the Kansas City Chiefs and the San Francisco 49ers. Throughout Super Bowl LIV, viewers will see about 50 commercials, each of which costs as much as $5.6 million per 30 seconds, according to AdWeek. Originally, there were more than 77 ad slots, so several companies could be paying well more than $10 million for a single, longer commercial. Numerous car companies have already announced their commercials, or their intentions to show commercials, during the game. Here's a roundup of the ones we know about so far. During the game on Sunday, we'll be livestreaming and adding links to the new commercials as they become available, so check back with us for that post. Audi: E-Tron Sportback Maisie Williams has experience wearing many faces, and in Audi's Super Bowl commercial, she does her best Elsa impression. In the spot, titled "Let It Go," Williams faces the rigorous task of getting through L.A. traffic, but she's alleviated by the comfort of the Audi E-Tron Sportback electric crossover. The commercial is meant to signal the company leaving its gas past behind and moving forward to a sustainable future. Genesis: GV80 Genesis makes its Super Bowl debut with a commercial that will show its all-new SUV, the GV80, to viewers around the world (many of which will be seeing the vehicle for the first time). The ad features Chrissy Teigen and John Legend as the purveyors of "new luxury," while "old luxury" is left for the birds. GMC: Hummer General Motors is bringing back the Hummer nameplate as a premium electric GMC truck. GM says it will have 1,000 horsepower and will be capable of going zero to 60 mph in three seconds. GM brought in NBA legend and Hummer fanboy LeBron James for the debut commercial. Hyundai: Sonata Hyundai is known for bringing in the big-time celebrities for its commercials, and 2020 is no different. A new advertisement called "Smaht Pahk" features John Krasinski, Chris Evans, and Rachel Dratch, all three of whom are from the Boston area. The trio gets into full character as they discuss the new high-tech parking feature on the redesigned 2020 Hyundai Sonata, and David Ortiz makes a cameo at the end. Even when New England isn't in the Super Bowl, New England is in the Super Bowl.
Volvo brings a whole new 2014 showroom for Geneva's approval
Wed, 06 Mar 2013Sometimes it takes smaller automakers a bit longer than the industry average to rotate and freshen their product lineups. Volvo has taken a big swing for the 2014 model year in that regard, and has brought along a full product portfolio of new cars.
In the main, this means that the Swedish brand has fast-tracked facelifts for its already-attractive assemblage of sedans, wagons and crossovers. Volvo mainstays S60 and S80 have both gotten appearance modifications to freshen them for dealer lots, as well as added features inside the car. We're particularly happy to report that the spirited "60 cluster" models - S60, V60, XC60 - can now be had with optional paddle shifters on new, three-spoke steering wheels.
Below you'll find a whole bunch of image galleries of the revised Volvos, live and in person from the show floor in Geneva. For a bit more background on the Volvo updates, feel free to read our original announcement of the news or scroll down to catch the press release.
See Volvo's integration of Apple CarPlay in action
Mon, 03 Mar 2014Apple unveiled its new CarPlay touchscreen infotainment system earlier today, and Volvo has just released a video showing the system in action. The Cupertino tech giant is expected to announce partnerships with Ferrari and Mercedes-Benz to license CarPlay, as well, at the 2014 Geneva Motor Show and will be working with even more manufacturers in the future.
The system pairs the driver's iPhone with the car's infotainment system and seamlessly allows them use the smart phone's functions and, at least in Volvo's demonstration, the car's climate control and seat heating systems. According to the video, the new system will be available "in the coming generation Volvo cars," which likely means the upcoming, next-generation Volvo XC90.
However, the system will not work universally. Apple will add functionality through an update to iOS 7 in the future for the iPhone 5, 5C and 5S. At launch other devices won't be supported. Scroll down to watch CarPlay work. We are expecting more details to emerge on the new infotainment system when the Swiss show opens tomorrow.
