This is a 1992 Volvo 240. It's a solid dependable car with good points and not so good points. Please allow me to detail everything I know:

Good points:

1. Engine seems to run very well

2. Transmission seems to shift smoothly and properly

3. No visible fluid leaks or smoke

4. Power windows and power locks all work; headlights and taillights are not cracked and they work.

5. This is a non-turbo 2.3cyl so it gets really great gas mileage.

Not so good points:

1. The blower motor for the heat and A/C does not come on. I do not know why. It could be a fuse or it could need a new blower motor; it has not been diagnosed by a technician yet.

2. The freon has leaked out of the A/C system. I do not know why.

3. The odometer stopped working at 152K miles so the actual mileage is unknown. My guess is that it is around 175K-200K but I can not say for sure. The other instrument cluster functions--such as the speedometer and fuel gauge--still work fine.

4. The tires are not great and should probably be replaced. In addition, the spare is currently mounted on the car because of a blowout of one of the tires.

5. The interior is is need of a thorough cleaning.

6. The paint or clear coat on the roof and the trunk lid has oxidized.

7. The radio antenna should be replaced. The radio does not work because it needs a code and I can't find the code.

8. The grill should probably be replaced since the bottom mounting tabs are broken off and the Volvo sticker is missing from the middle.

9. We haven't been driving it alot lately and the battery seems a little weak as a result. Also, I left the lights on the other day which made it go partially dead. I jump started it and drove it for a day and it seems basically fine but it seems a little weak when starting. It should probably be tested and/or replaced. I noticed that when I jumped it off it started super powerfully but when I went to start it today it started fine but it was a little weaker than when I started it with jumper cables attached. So I think the battery should be checked out. Once started it runs fine of course; it just seems a little weaker than maybe it should be when you go to start it.

10. There are two small rock chips in the windshield. Neither one is in the driver's view path and neither one has spread beyond a tiny starburst.

11. Many little trim pieces both inside and out are damaged or missing and there are various dents or damage to be found in various spots around the car. The car has at least average wear and tear for the year, possibly above average. I don't really feel like listing every dent, scratch and missing or damaged trim piece but you will find several throughout the car.

The bottom line is this: it's a solid dependable car that runs and drives well. The outstanding issues do not prevent the car from being driven across the country right now. The really important stuff is working fine. With a little bit of investment this could be a very nice car again.

There is a $300 deposit due immediately via Paypal in order to end the auction. The remaining $1000 is due in cash when you pick up the car. I am giving you 31 calendar days after ending the auction to pick up the car and pay the remaining balance of $1000 in cash. If the car is not picked up within 31 days of the auction close the $300 deposit will be forfeited. There are no exceptions to this policy so please do not use Buy-it-Now until you are confident that you can pick up the car within 31 days and pay the remaining balance of $1000 in cash.

If you are a Georgia resident please contact me before using buy-it-now since there are new tax laws we need to discuss.

Lastly, it may go without saying but this car is sold AS-IS with no warranties of any kind expressed or implied. I am not warranting any aspect of this vehicle's operation or condition. I have attempted to tell you everything I know about the car but I am not an automotive technician and the vehicle has not been inspected by one prior to the sale. Your purchase of the car implies your agreement with these statements.

Thanks for looking and have a great day!

Geely to release models developed with Volvo in 2015

Thu, 22 Aug 2013

Geely and Volvo will finally team up for a jointly developed vehicle, more than three years after the safety-minded Swedish brand was gobbled up by Geely's parent company, according to a report in Automotive News Europe. The story quotes Geely's CEO, Gui Sheng Yue saying, "We have entered into actual research and development stage and I believe we can see the new product in the year after next."
That means 2015, which is a mighty ambitious timetable to bring a vehicle to market. But as Geely's CEO explains, life isn't going to get any easier in the Chinese market, "Competitive pressure on domestic brands in the China market should increase considerably in the coming years as most major international brands are strengthening their presence," he told ANE. Those statements also tell us that we shouldn't expect to see Geely on American shores any time soon. The brand is simply too focused on topping the Chinese market, at least among CDM brands.

Chip maker Nvidia adds Volvo to list of self-driving partners

Tue, Jun 27 2017

Chipmaker Nvidia Corp announced on Monday it was partnering with Volvo Cars and Swedish auto supplier Autoliv to develop self-driving car technology for vehicles due to hit the market by 2021. Volvo is owned by China's Geely Automobile Holdings. Silicon Valley-based Nvidia also announced a non-exclusive partnership with German automotive suppliers ZF and Hella for artificial intelligence technology for autonomous driving. Nvidia came to prominence in the gaming industry for designing graphics processing chips, but in recent years has been a key player in the automotive sector for providing the so-called "brain" of the autonomous vehicle. The company, whose many partners already include Tesla, Toyota, Ford, Audi, BMW, and tier one supplier Robert Bosch, announced its latest deals at an automotive electronics show in Ludwigsburg, Germany. Nvidia's Drive PX artificial intelligence platform is used by Tesla in its Models S and X and upcoming Model 3 electric vehicles. Volkswagen AG's Audi is also using the system to reach full autonomous driving by 2020. In a call with reporters, Nvidia's senior automotive director Danny Shapiro said carmakers and their main suppliers are now moving away from the research and development phase of autonomous vehicles and into concrete production plans. The system developed jointly by ZF and Hella, and using Nvidia's Drive PX platform, will combine front cameras with radar and software to create technology meeting the Euro NCAP safety certification for so-called "Level 3" driving, in which some, but not all, driving is performed by the car. Volvo is already using the Drive PX for the self-driving cars in its "Drive Me" autonomous pilot program. Volvo's production vehicles built on Nvidia's platform, as announced on Monday, are planned for sale by 2021.Reporting By Alexandria SageRelated Video: Auto News Green Tesla Toyota Volvo Technology Emerging Technologies Autonomous Vehicles nvidia autoliv

Two more Volvo Concept C Coupe teasers drop [w/videos]

Wed, 28 Aug 2013

Volvo is planning to take the wraps off its Concept C Coupe tomorrow ahead of an official unveiling at the Frankfurt Motor Show. If you just can't wait until then, though, Volvo has released two more teaser videos for the new concept.
Like the video from earlier in the week, we get a couple more sneak peeks of the stylish two-door including our first glimpse of the interior. The highly conceptual concept likely hints at a future coupe for the Swedish automaker, and after dropping the C30 and C70 from its lineup over the last couple years, this can't come soon enough. Scroll down to watch both new teaser videos, and stay tuned to see more on this car tomorrow.
