1989 Volvo – 160,000 actual miles! One Owner! Non Smoker. Rust free. Near mint condition and to the best of my knowledge, mechanically sound - inside and out.* It just breaks my heart to put it on the market.

The miles are documented, the radio, cassette player and speakers work great. The Michelin rubber on all four wheels is in great shape. There is a small pin prick in the glass and a couple of very small interior surface cracks – which are barely noticeable. The heat blows hot and the AC works – but could use a charge. The seats and carpet look new – but are original. The engine compartment looks like its been detailed – but it hasnt – just immaculate and without any known leaks. The car runs smooth at 80mph without breaking a sweat and is a fantastic example of Volvo engineering!

As you can see from the pictures, I have a treasure trove of Volvo memorabilia, literature and even have the original bill of sale and the original window sticker. To many new/replacement items to mention but has new belts, (including Timing), Tires, Radiator, Exhaust to name a few. Car is leak free. The detailed documentation – shows that the oil was changed every 5,000 miles and that all of the manufacturers’ recommended maintenance work was performed on schedule by the local Volvo dealer. The vehicle has always been garaged and literally driven about 4,000 miles a year. Records show that the dealer regularly washed and waxed the car– so the paint looks brand new!

*Unfortunately, the car was recently side-swiped on the interstate. The title is clear (not salvage) but sadly, the left quarter panel was damaged and the bumper torn (and ultimately removed). Since the impact wasnt direct, the frame appears to be solid and true (see the attached pictures) and the car drives without any pull or sway – the same way it has for the last 25 years!

Our pearl white 240 is being sold as is – but you are welcome to inspect it in advance of placing your bid – but if not, you will need to pay close attention to the photos. If you are the winning bidder - payment is due within 24 hours. Vehicle needs to be picked up within 7 days. Storage for up to 30 days is available at $15.00 per day – but arrangements will need to be made in advance.

With such a low reserve, this is clearly one of the best dollar for dollar 240 values on Ebay. We live in Dublin, which is a suburb outside of Columbus, Ohio. After making a few calls, I can confirm that bumpers are available in the Midwest for between $100 and $150 with quarter panels also readily available. After this baby is put back together – it will once again be a spectacular show car and will hopefully provide its new owner with many happy miles of driving.

Please feel free to contact me directly with any questions and happy bidding!

10 best new car deals of November 2021

Thu, Nov 4 2021

Sales of new cars, trucks and SUVs were drastically affected in 2020 due to the (still) ongoing coronavirus pandemic. The market started to show signs of recovery toward the end of last year before really coming on strong in the early months of 2021. Of course, then pandemic-related parts and worker shortages along with global shipping constraints started running amok and causing a great deal of pricing fluctuation and a limited supply of certain vehicles. Those problems (among other things) have led to record-high new-car transaction prices in the United States. The good news is that there are still plenty of great deals on new cars. Using data provided by TrueCar, we’ve compiled a list of some of the best automotive deals for November 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).

Best luxury SUVs of 2022 and 2023

Mon, Sep 12 2022

Once upon a time, the idea of a luxury SUV meant a Range Rover, and even that was pretty agricultural by modern standards. Then Jeep Grand Cherokees andÂ Ford Explorers started offering fancy, range-topping versions followed soon by Lexus, BMW and Mercedes dipping their toes in the water. And then the floodgates opened. Today, there is a staggering number of luxury SUVs available in every shape, size and price point. There are electric luxury SUVsÂ like theÂ Tesla Model XÂ and Jaguar I-Pace, as well as gas-swilling, high-performance SUVs like theÂ BMW X5 M and Cadillac Escalade V. Sports car makers Porsche, Aston Martin and Lamborghini have even dived in.Â But of this great many, which are the best luxury SUVs? We sat down, scoured our reviews, took some votes, had some discussions and came up with the luxury SUVs we view as the best. They are listed alphabetically within the six segments listed below.Â Best Subcompact Luxury SUVÂ Â |Â Â Best Compact Luxury SUVÂ Â |Â Â Best Midsize Luxury SUV (Two-Row) Best Midsize Luxury SUV (Three-Row)Â Â |Â Â Best Flagship Luxury SUV (Two-Row)Â Â |Â Â Best Flagship Luxury SUV (Three-Row)Â Best subcompact luxury SUVs Mercedes-Benz GLB-Class Why it stands out:Â Outstanding space and versatility; legit luxury interior; amusing GLB 35 versionCould be better:Â Overwhelming and confusing tech interface Most subcompact luxury SUVs are a dubious value, with cramped interiors of marginal quality and unrefined driving dynamics. You'd be much better off paying less money for a loaded,Â non-luxuryÂ compactÂ SUV. The Mercedes GLB is different, though. Its boxy design provides space few other subcompact SUV can match (luxury or otherwise), while its cabin design and feature content are in keeping with pricier Mercedes models. The quality's not exactly up to GLC standards, nor is driving refinement, but the difference is appropriate for how much you're saving and still perfectly acceptable. There's nothing dubious about buying a GLB.Â Â Â Volvo XC40 Why it stands out:Â More features for the money; spacious and versatile interior; distinctive design; electric versionCould be better:Â Fuel-efficient base engine only available with FWD Most subcompact luxury models feel a bit like cheap knockoffs of their bigger, pricier brand mates. The XC40, by contrast, is a break from the Volvo norm in a good way.

These cars are headed to the Great Crusher In The Sky

Fri, 24 Aug 2012

It happens every year. We bid adieu to some cars and trucks that will be missed, and say good riddance to others wondering how they stayed around so long. Whether they're being killed off for slow sales or due to a new product coming along to replace them, the list of vehicles being discontinued after 2012 is surprisingly long and diverse.
CNN Money has compiled a list of departing vehicles, to which we've added a few more of our own. In the slow sales column, cars like the Lexus HS 250h, Mercedes-Benz R-Class and the full Maybach lineup appear, while the Ford Escape Hybrid, Mazda CX-7 and Hyundai Veracruz are all having their gaps filled with more modern and more fuel-efficient alternatives. Obvious exceptions to the rule include models that still sell in decent numbers like the Jeep Liberty and the Chrysler Town & Country (which will eventually be replaced by a crossover-like vehicle).
Check out our gallery of discontinued cars above, then scroll down for more information.
