Clean Volvo 242 on 2040-cars
Troutdale, Oregon, United States
Up for sale is my 242. Ive owned this car for about 4 years and I'm about ready to move on to another car. Over the 4 years, I've done a ton of maintenance and service, as well as a few upgrades. These include: timing belt and v belts with all new oem seals, new water pump, alternator and voltage regulator, completly rebuilt wiring harness, clutch, practically every fuel injection component has been replaced, all tune up parts, everything. The motor runs great and the transmission shifts smooth. The car handles very well, and the suspension has been upgraded with coil overs, poly bushings, ipd adjustable torque rods and panard rod, and the little stuff like ball joints and tie rod ends have been replaced. For wheels, it has Eiker e1's in 17x7.5 in good shape with no curbing with brand new tires in 215/45/17 with warrantees. The interior is in very good shape as well, its blue cloth and vinyl trim and its all intact. The stereo is in the lower position by the shifter, and it has vdo vision gauges in the upper spot by the gauge cluster. Everything works as it should and the car drives well. I get compliments on it all the time and it's even won a couple awards. 242's are getting hard to find in this good of shape. Im pretty firm on the price. $6500 With wheels $5500 without thanks for looking! Willing to take some parts off to negotiate price any questions just message me |

Volvo XC90 First Edition sells out in 47 hours
Fri, 05 Sep 2014Two days ago, Volvo opened the order books on its completely new 2015 XC90 crossover, and just like that, all of the 1,927 First Edition models were reserved in a scant 47 hours. According to Volvo, most of the vehicles were reserved within one hour of the online ordering site launching, and at its peak, seven cars were being sold each minute.
First Edition models wear a unique Onyx Black exterior, and ride on eight-spoke, 21-inch wheels. Inside, amber nappa leather covers the seats, the dashboard is lined in charcoal leather, and there are walnut inlays throughout the cabin.
Under the hood, the XC90 First Edition can be had with either a four-cylinder Drive-E gasoline or diesel engine (if you live in markets outside the US, of course). The twin-charged T6 petrol model comes with 320 horsepower, and sends its power to the ground via all-wheel drive.
Volvo reveals V60 Cross Country ahead of LA
Wed, 05 Nov 2014Volvo is bringing a model to the Los Angeles Auto Show that isn't afraid to get a little dirty. The Swedish automaker will finally unveil its V60 Cross Country crossover, and it has confirmed that the model will be available in North American markets shortly.
The Cross Country takes Volvo's standard V60 compact wagon and injects a little more off-road capability and visual flavor into the platform. US and Canadian models will arrive with Volvo's 250-horsepower, five-cylinder engine with a standard automatic transmission and all-wheel drive. The company says the powertrain should get around 23 miles per gallon fuel economy on the combined cycle.
To be ready to go just a little bit off the beaten path, the suspension sits about 2.6-inches higher than the regular version. The body is also equipped with skid plates in the front and rear, side scuff plates, fender extensions and exhaust outlets integrated into the rear bumper. Hill Descent Control will also augment capability, as well.
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.
