This is a white 1990 Volvo Wagon with undetermined mileage (the odometer didn't work when we purchased it). It is estimated to be 175,000-200,000. We purchased the car in Cottonwood, Arizona about two years ago from a private seller who informed us that he got it in Phoenix (having spent it's entire life there). There is a dent on the right passenger side from a minor accident. We had the car mechanically inspected before we bought it and was told it was all cosmetic. Before we left Arizona, we purchased a used, but straight passenger-side door and fender from a dealer in Tucson. These are included but will need to be painted to match. There is no rust except for a tiny spot on the hood which occurred due to tree sap.
The wagon runs fine, however there are engine oil and automatic transmission fluid leaks. The car has had no problem passing Ohio e-check. The A/C does not work. The fan squeals on the two lower speeds. Tires are still good. The rear fog/wiper/washer wires have been clipped before we bought it. It has new front struts. The cruise control does not function. We upgraded the stereo with a Sony CD/Bluetooth unit. Heated seats appear to be unplugged (again, before we got it). Seats are in good shape with a only a small cigarette burn? on the passenger side. The car does not smell like smoke whatsoever. Neither us or the previous owners were smokers. There's cracks in the plastic around the rear pillars, but the rear seats and carpeting in the back and the cargo area are very good. The third stoplight/rear reverse lights are not functioning. We purchased blue thermoplastic OEM Volvo mats that are included. Power windows work, interior lights are mostly perfect.
Overall, this 240 runs well and has a lot of life left in her. My parents have owned quite a few Volvo 240's over the years and they don't sell this car easily. They've recently retired and just want something more modern. Considering there's no rust (except for the spot on the hood), this wagon is really an excellent value. More pictures available upon request. Car is for sale locally, so auction may end early if no bids are received. $2500

Polestar looking to tune Volvo CUVs
Sun, 19 Oct 2014Volvo is getting serious about emerging from the fringes and into the mainstream of the luxury automobile market. But if it's going to challenge the Germans, it's going to need a performance line. And that's just what it's developing with Polestar.
Building on the motorsport partnership that has seen Polestar represent Volvo in the Scandinavian Touring Car Championship, World Touring Car Championship and V8 Supercars series, Polestar has been charged with developing road-going performance Volvos as well. It currently offers comprehensively tuned versions of the S60 and V60, as well as engine upgrades for other models, but the latest word has it that Polestar will turn its attention next to tuning Volvo crossovers like the XC60 and the new XC90, pictured above in top-spec R-Design trim.
Details on how Volvo would modify those models remain to be determined, but it wouldn't be much of a stretch to imagine the XC60 outfitted with similar enhancements to those offered on its sedan and wagon stablemates to mount a challenge to the Audi SQ5. As for the larger XC90, it seems Volvo is already squeezing as much out of its new 2.0-liter triple-charged inline-four as it can, but more aggressive handling, aero and brakes could stand to transform the flagship crossover in pursuit of performance utes like the Mercedes ML63 AMG and BMW X5 M, even if it couldn't quite match their impressive horsepower outputs.
Sunday Drive: Volvo hits a crossover home run, and people still love sports cars
Sun, Sep 24 2017Looking back at the week that just was clearly tells us at least three things. First, crossovers don't have to be boring. Second, people still love sports cars, from the attainable (Audi TT RS) to the fanciful (Mercedes-AMG GT C). And finally, the traditional German trio of premium luxury brands had better not rest on their laurels, because credible challengers are coming in from every direction. The biggest reveal of the week, at least judging by the interest of Autoblog readers, was the Volvo XC40. Not only is the little 'ute a looker, it introduces some innovative new buying/leasing schemes designed to appeal to an audience accustomed to trading in and trading up every couple of years. Think of Volvo's flat-fee lease as you would a smartphone contract, and you'll be on the right track. Genesis looks to have a hit on its hands in the form of the G70 sport sedan. We took a Korean-spec model for a spin and found a lot to like about the upstart contender. We can't wait to sample one here in the United States to see how it stacks up against the Audi A4, BMW 3 Series, and Mercedes-Benz C-Class. In other news, we're still really excited to see a production Ford Ranger Raptor. But if you just can't wait for the official reveal — it's OK, neither can we — take a look at the renderings in our post down below. As always, tune in to Autoblog next week for a front-row seat to all the happenings worth following in the automotive industry.

Next Volvo XC90 design teased
Thu, 29 Aug 2013When Volvo took the wraps off its Concept Coupe yesterday, the Swedish automaker said that while "the all-new XC90 is an entirely different type of car, you will recognize the connection instantly when it is revealed next year." We raised our eyebrows at this upon first read, but after seeing these photos, posted on Feber.se, Volvo certainly wasn't joking.
During a press conference where the Concept Coupe debuted, teaser images of the next XC90 were shown, and the connection between it and the conceptual two-door are obvious. The long, T-shaped lighting elements in the slim headlamps are certainly the most noticeable tie between the two vehicles, but the angular lower fascia openings seen here can also be found quite prominently on the Concept Coupe.
Feber.se also has a few images showing the new taillamp and interior designs of the XC90, as well. And not surprisingly, those two facets of the new crossover's DNA are also surprisingly close to the elements found on the Concept Coupe. It's interesting to see how the concept's C-shaped taillamps have been massaged for the more upright design of the XC90's rump, and inside the cabin, it appears Volvo is serious about this vertically oriented infotainment display.
