Hi I am selling my 1993 volvo 240 sedan 134,XXXk miles 5 speed manual trans its in great shape cosmetically and mechanically, its black exterior paint looks great w/ black cloth interior(9 out of 10). It has all the bells and whistles power everything. I am a volvo tech and have maintained and garage kept this 240 and really only drove it every once and awhile around the area not very often kind of a Sunday local car, I really dont want or need to sell this 240 but I have one to many volvos and need to trim down the fleet.(wife wants a spot in driveway) I originally purchased this volvo because it was clean and a five speed w/ the intention to swap the b230 engine w/ a b230ft engine but after driving this volvo for the last couple years I have decided it would be a shame to remove the low mileage engine that runs perfect and strong for another. I rebuilt a b230ft but I would rather put it into a 240 coupe so im keeping my eyes out for a clean one and selling this one. I have done many recent repairs like all new fluids, brakes, battery, clutch and cable, tuneup, timming belt, ball joints, and new tires w/ alignment the only things needed to be done are the rubber upper shock bushings and a/c needs to be recharged. The interior is very clean it includes heated seats, power everthing, dash pad (mint), original radio, rear 6x9 infiniti speakers. The car was involved in a minor accident in a pakinglot on 8/14/06 no frame damage but the drivers door was replaced w/ a oem door and painted paint job looks great cant tell, the floors are in mint shape the only spot of rust is on the inner door rocker panel of the rear drivers side door it can be repaired wich I didnt get to or another panel can be welded in wich I have and will include with the sale probably caused from a bad seal car is originally from PA.I have never drove the car during the winter or salted roads meaning clean car. In the pics it shows guages where the radio is I will put original radio back in its place also on the drivers door the speaker is missing wich I will put back before sale also the plastic piece behind rear liscense plate has cracked and has been removed since pics. Winner will be responsible for shipment of vehicle, I will need (CASH) in hand for the title before releasing the 240.
I could go on forever on how much I love this car because its the most dependable volvo I have owned and its a turn key and go ready. Email me if you have any questions.
Thanks

2015.5 Volvo S60 and V60 Polestar [w/video]
Thu, 01 May 2014Polestar Performance has been around since 1996, but until recently, it only did two things: manage Volvo motorsports operations and run a specialist consumer-facing side that built concept cars and boosted Volvo's turbocharged production cars by 15 to 60 horsepower. Five years ago, it fulfilled its long-held desire to engineer an actual production car, first creating the C30 Polestar Performance Concept, a showcar that led to the C30 Polestar Limited Edition.
That foray led to the berserker, 508-horsepower 2013 S60 Polestar Concept that Auto Motor und Sport called "a hard slap in the face to the Germans," and that model led to the limited-edition S60 Polestar production car just for Australia, a car reviewers swooned for, with one comparing its chassis finesse to the Ferrari 458 Italia.
All of which is to say, Polestar has a good start for a motorsports and tuning company to make good on its production car dreams. The 2015 Volvo S60 Polestar and V60 Polestar keep that momentum going, and beautifully at that.
Volvo studying test of electric roads in Sweden
Tue, 27 May 2014Volvo already announced the results of a study of wireless charging using a stationary C30, and now it's embarking on a more ambitious study of wireless charging involving moving city buses. Next year, in conjunction with the Swedish Transport Association, Volvo will build a section of electric road up to 500 meters long that would use inductive charging to refill the batteries while the bus drives over it.
Right now, the company's Hyper Bus diesel hybrid has to stop to plug in and charge at the end of its route. The company is looking for a way to keep buses in service while being able to run on electric power for greater lengths of time. The new line used for the study will be called ElectriCity, and will come online in central Gothenburg sometime in 2015. There's a press release below with more information.
2015 Volvo XC90 proves Sweden's auto industry is alive and well [w/video]
Fri, 03 Oct 2014The 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.
