1985 Volvo 245 GL


Up for auction is my Volvo Station wagon.
This vehicle has never let me down and currently my daily driver.
5 speed manual with the button for 5th gear.
Runs great!
It does have some issues though..
(PLEASE SEE THE SELLER'S NOTES FOR FULL DETAILS)
The biggest being the throw out bearing. It recently went bad, so now when you press the clutch to change gears, the car will vibrate.
Another thing to note is that, just recently as well, the drive shaft makes a clicking noise when you come to a complete stop. It may be related to the throw out bearing but I am no mechanic to tell you if it is or not. Other than that, it has been and still is a reliable vehicle. I use it everyday to get to work and back and roughly put in 30 miles a day. Although engine idles great, it is due for a complete tuneup. Will need a new set of tires but the tires that are on now  will due for the meantime. This Volvo gets approximately 25 miles to the gallon and, to this day, has never leaked a drop of oil. Volvo passed smog, I believe in January 2012, with flying colors!
The 1st owner, although I have no receipts to back it up, told me he had the motor mounts and timing replaced a few years back before selling the vehicle to me in December of 2011.
He also had the vehicle painted gray, silver being the original color.
Everything on the dash works including the clock and still has the original drivers and passengers door plastic rack for papers etc. Passengers rack is a little cracked but in good condition.
I personally give the engine a 9, paint job an 7, interior an 8 and the exterior a 8 on a scale of 1 - 10, 10 being great.

This vehicle needs somebody that will care for her as she is not ready to go to the junkyard.

Please note that I will still be driving this vehicle on a daily basis so do expect the mileage to be a little higher than what it shows on the picture. If the reserve price is meet or you decide to Buy It Now, the Volvo will no longer be driven and will stay on my driveway until pick up day.

Thank you so much for your interest and happy bidding!

10 most memorable cars and SUVs of 2019

Tue, Dec 24 2019

It's no surprise that a car reviewer will drive a large number of cars over the course of a year. Indeed, when the clock strikes midnight on Dec 31, I will have driven 75 new cars, trucks and SUV this year (and one old Peugeot) over the course of weekly evaluation loans and first drive events. That sure seems like a lot. Some definitely got more attention than others, and some came and went without leaving much of an impression – I completely forgot I drove a Kia Forte. Yet in the spirit of this day, I thought I'd pick the 10 that I would love to see under the Christmas tree tomorrow morning. You know, just in case you were looking to get me something. I'll also throw in a couple disappointments that were memorable for the wrong reasons. They'd get sent back to the store on Boxing Day. Lexus LC 500 Pictured below and resplendent in its Flare Yellow metallic paint, the car that would reach highest on my list is the divine Lexus LC 500. As a devout lover of GT cars, the LC ticks all the boxes. Muscular and characterful engine? V8, check. Beautifully made and memorable interior? It's gorgeous, to hell with Remote Touch. Check. Comfortable and reasonably practical? Superb seats and, uh, yeah. Makes me want to stand there and stare at it? You bet. Though I long figured my heart would say LC but my head "Porsche 911," after this go-around, that's no longer the case. LC, pretty please. 2020-lexus-lc500-f34-2 View 19 Photos Polestar 1 I actually feel lucky that I got to drive the Polestar 1. Only 150 will be produced each year, and it's a far more special thing than it would initially appear. And that's despite initially appearing to be a beautiful, classic two-door GT car with a roof so rakish it's only possible because it's made of carbon fiber. That itÂ’s a massively powerful plug-in hybrid with more all-electric range than any other PHEV is a thick dollop of whipped cream on a slice of Toscakaka. You know, Swedish dessert, Swedish car. Fine, I'll stick to Ikea references.  Polestar1_Launch_SanFrancisco-0014 View 44 Photos Volvo V60 Cross Country Speaking of Sweden, did I drive this car off the road there? Sure did! And despite this, the V60 Cross Country scratches that certain wagon itch and looks sensational to boot. I wish it were available with the T8 plug-in hybrid powertrain, but it's best not to get greedy at Christmas.

Fri, May 3 2019

In this week's Autoblog Podcast, Editor-in-Chief Greg Migliore is joined by Road Test Editor Reese Counts and Associate Editor Joel Stocksdale. First, they talk about the newly refreshed Chevy Camaro SS. Then they dish on the cars they've been driving, including the Lexus UX, Lexus GS F and Volvo V90, as well as riding in the new Mercedes-Benz GLS. After that, they ask the question, how many AMG cars is too many? Finally they turn to car buying, and suggest potential vehicles for a shopper on Reddit for the "Spend My Money" segment.

10 best new car deals in late September 2021

Wed, Sep 29 2021

New car sales were drastically affected in 2020 due to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, but things started to show signs of recovery toward the end of the year before really coming on strong in the early months of 2021. Now there's an ongoing shortage of microchips causing a great deal of pricing fluctuation and a limited supply of certain vehicles. That doesn't mean there aren't still great deals on new cars, though. Using data provided by TrueCar, we’ve compiled a list of some of the best automotive deals for September 2021. WeÂ’ve noted the original MSRP, the average transaction price, and the total savings in both dollars and as a percentage of the original sticker price. Basically, weÂ’ve done all the hard work for you! So now, all you need to do is compare deals, go on a few test drives, and maybe drive away in a great car (and an even better bargain).
