This is a very nice well maintained 740 Volvo wagon with the reliable red block B230F engine. These cars easily can go 500+ miles and are some of the safest vehicles on the road. This was my mother's car and when she could no longer drive, she gave it to me. I have had it for about four years and have spared virtually no expense in maintaining it. I have all of my service records as well as my mothers. It is a nonsmoker car and a daily driver. The car needs virtually nothing. Everything works as it should except the passenger heated seat. The AC blows cold and has been converted to the new refrigerant. I changed my own oil, used Volvo or better oil filter, 10-30 Mobil 1; doing this every 5000 miles. The transmission gets serviced every January and works perfectly. The timing belt has been changed on schedule professionally as well as tensioners, water pump etc. It has a K&N airfilter and a top of the line Diehard AGM battery. The cruise control works, rear wiper, and all lights. It tracks well, no drift, shimmey, rattle, or roll. The brakes have plenty of pad life: 50% and the rotors are good. No vibration on stopping. Tires have plenty of tread and are good quality with a good full size spare. Fuel filter has been changed, spark plugs, flame trap cleaned and this beautiful old gal is ready for the road. I would not hesitate to drive this Volvo to California or Maine. It has the usual wear and tear of a daily driver. There are some dings and scratches here and there; but overall it is a well maintained and loved 740. I even replaced the head light lenses and note how clear they are. That is the attention to detail that this car has gotten. I do reserve the right to end the auction early for I am also offering this car for sale locally. I am selling for I do not use the car now enough to justify keeping it and I have too many cars in the stable. I wish I could keep every car I owned; but that is not realistic; let alone expensive. It you want this, then buy it. There is a lot of interest in Volvo wagons because they carry so much and are easy to work on (240/740/940). Don't let this 740 get away. It is one of the nicest! (Sorry some photos are turned the wrong way, I spent hours trying to turn them correctly.) |

See Volvo's integration of Apple CarPlay in action
Mon, 03 Mar 2014Apple unveiled its new CarPlay touchscreen infotainment system earlier today, and Volvo has just released a video showing the system in action. The Cupertino tech giant is expected to announce partnerships with Ferrari and Mercedes-Benz to license CarPlay, as well, at the 2014 Geneva Motor Show and will be working with even more manufacturers in the future.
The system pairs the driver's iPhone with the car's infotainment system and seamlessly allows them use the smart phone's functions and, at least in Volvo's demonstration, the car's climate control and seat heating systems. According to the video, the new system will be available "in the coming generation Volvo cars," which likely means the upcoming, next-generation Volvo XC90.
However, the system will not work universally. Apple will add functionality through an update to iOS 7 in the future for the iPhone 5, 5C and 5S. At launch other devices won't be supported. Scroll down to watch CarPlay work. We are expecting more details to emerge on the new infotainment system when the Swiss show opens tomorrow.
Which electric cars can charge at a Tesla Supercharger?
Sun, Jul 9 2023The difference between Tesla charging and non-Tesla charging. Electrify America; Tesla Tesla's advantage has long been its charging technology and Supercharger network. Now, more and more automakers are switching to Tesla's charging tech. But there are a few things non-Tesla drivers need to know about charging at a Tesla station. A lot has hit the news cycle in recent months with regard to electric car drivers and where they can and can't plug in. The key factor in all of that? Whether automakers switched to Tesla's charging standard. More car companies are shifting to Tesla's charging tech in the hopes of boosting their customers' confidence in going electric. Here's what it boils down to: If you currently drive a Tesla, you can keep charging at Tesla charging locations, which use the company's North American Charging Standard (NACS), which has long served it well. The chargers are thinner, more lightweight and easier to wrangle than other brands. If you currently drive a non-Tesla EV, you have to charge at a non-Tesla charging station like that of Electrify America or EVgo — which use the Combined Charging System (CCS) — unless you stumble upon a Tesla charger already equipped with the Magic Dock adapter. For years, CCS tech dominated EVs from everyone but Tesla. Starting next year, if you drive a non-Tesla EV (from the automakers that have announced they'll make the switch), you'll be able to charge at all Supercharger locations with an adapter. And by 2025, EVs from some automakers won't even need an adaptor. Here's how to charge up, depending on which EV you have: Ford 2021 Ford Mustang Mach-E. Tim Levin/Insider Ford was the earliest traditional automaker to team up with Tesla for its charging tech. Current Ford EV owners — those driving a Ford electric vehicle already fitted with a CCS port — will be able to use a Tesla-developed adapter to access Tesla Superchargers starting in the spring. That means that, if you own a Mustang Mach-E or Ford F-150 Lightning, you will need the adapter in order to use a Tesla station come 2024. But Ford will equip its future EVs with the NACS port starting in 2025 — eliminating the need for any adapter. Owners of new Ford EVs will be able to pull into a Supercharger station and juice up, no problem. General Motors Cadillac Lyriq. Cadillac GM will also allow its EV drivers to plug into Tesla stations.
Volvo considering offering V60 wagon in the US
Tue, 12 Mar 2013For the 2014 model year, the Volvo product line is shrinking to just five models in the United States: the S60, S80, XC60, XC70 and XC90. This comes following the death of the C30 hatchback and C70 convertible, which are being discontinued after the 2013 model year. The S40 sedan and V50 wagon were axed two years ago, as was the larger V70.
That may not be the case, however. According to Automotive News, Volvo is rethinking its decision to not sell the V60 wagon, pictured, in the United States. The automaker had originally decided to not offer the V60 in our market due to declining American wagon sales. A decision is expected to be made sometime in the next quarter, and if approved, sales of the V60 could begin in the US within the next year.
At the Geneva Motor Show last week, Volvo showed off refreshed versions of nearly every vehicle in its lineup. In the US, these will be the only changes coming to the Volvo brand over the next two years. The next big product launch in the States will be the all-new XC90 crossover, developed under new parent company Geely. The range-topping SUV will ride on the company's new flexible SPA platform, which will also underpin the next-generation versions of the S60, S80 and XC60.
