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!

Driving Volvos on ice, and the 2025 Toyota 4Runner is almost here | Autoblog Podcast #826

Fri, Apr 5 2024

In this episode of the Autoblog Podcast, Editor-in-Chief Greg Migliore is joined by Road Test Editor Zac Palmer. The two kick things off by talking about what they've been driving, including the 2025 Volvo EX30 (on ice), 2024 Lexus LC 500h and 2024 Lexus TX 350. After the review section, it's time for the news. The impending 2025 Toyota 4Runner reveal is dissected; a new Buick Envision arrives, and Tesla has a rough quarter. Once the pair finish with the news, they move on to discuss the current state of affairs in Formula 1 and give a quick rundown of the New York Auto Show Editors' Picks. Finally, the show finishes with a great Spend My Money segment where a listener is trying to find a new car that might be able to take down their brother's BMW M5.

Volvo working on ultra-lux four-seat XC90 for China?

Tue, 09 Sep 2014

In China, it's all about being driven. That's why we've seen so many automakers stretch their most popular models to appeal to buyers in the Chinese market. Volvo is certainly no stranger to this, and according to Autocar, the company is already working on a super-lux, four-seat version of its recently launched XC90 crossover.
Volvo won't stretch the XC90 and just increase second-row legroom, however. Instead, the company will reportedly remove both the standard XC90's second and third row benches, and install a duplicate set of front seats in the rear compartment, featuring the same electric adjustment features, including massage. These more luxurious thrones will be placed further back in the vehicle, allowing for "exceptional" legroom, Autocar reports, without needing to stretch the wheelbase.
Mum's the word on when we can expect to see the high-zoot Volvo arrive, though the magazine estimates that it surface later this year.

2015 Volvo XC90 proves Sweden's auto industry is alive and well [w/video]

Fri, 03 Oct 2014

The most important new Volvo in quite some time has made its first auto show appearance, with the second-generation XC90 debuting at the 2014 Paris Motor Show.
As we discussed in both our original post and Deep Dive feature, the new XC90 remains a three-row crossover for 2015, although it ditches the first-gen model's top-end, turbocharged six-cylinder in favor of a single twin-charged, 2.0-liter, four-cylinder engine. By pairing that with a plug-in-electric powertrain, the king of the XC90 range, the T8 TwinEngine, will offer up 400 horsepower. So yeah, performance should be brisk.
Also appearing on 2015 XC90 will be an entirely new, Apple CarPlay-compatible infotainment system with a big, vertical touchscreen display at its heart. Based on the videos we've seen, the new system looks responsive, feature-laden and quite attractive.
