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.) |

12 new cars that will never go out of style
Tue, Nov 23 2021Some cars never go out of style. It’s rare, but it happens. They get old. They get depreciated. But they never stop looking cool. Some might call them modern or instant classics. Within a few years theyÂ’re no longer the latest and greatest, no longer the flavor of the month, but they remain special. Eternally special. Timeless. These cars arenÂ’t necessarily going to be worth a fortune someday. However, some may not depreciate as rapidly or as far as other models. But thatÂ’s not what weÂ’re talking about here. These are the cars that enthusiasts will always find desirable from the curbside. TheyÂ’re the cars you end up shopping on eBay late at night 10 years later because you canÂ’t get them out of your head. TheyÂ’re the cars that will forever excite you when you spot a clean one in traffic or in a parking lot. There are plenty of recent examples over the past couple of decades that could count as instant design classics. But then we got to thinking, what 2021 models will be forever cool to stare at? Which new cars and trucks on sale today will we be shopping on eBay late at night in the 2030s? We kept supercars and other ultra-expensive cars off the list to keep things within the realm of attainability, and ended up with 12 total cars. Lexus LC WeÂ’re not applying a numerical ranking to any of the cars on this list, but if we were, the Lexus LC would be No. 1. There isnÂ’t another car design out there that can stir our emotions the way an LC can when itÂ’s just standing still. This car is a concept design come true in the most beautiful of ways, and itÂ’s a shoo-in winner for Concours events decades into the future. All of this heaping praise, and we havenÂ’t even gotten to the LC 500Â’s intoxicating 5.0-liter V8. It doesnÂ’t win drag races. It wonÂ’t be the fastest around the track against any similarly-priced competition. But none of that matters. ItÂ’s quite possibly the best car you can buy new, and that says it all when it comes to the LC. Chevrolet Corvette It might not be the stunner that the Lexus LC is, but the new C8 Corvette is and will always be a special vehicle. ItÂ’s the first mid-engine Corvette, which instantly cements it into an automotive hall of fame section of sorts. All of the performance stats and specs are there to back up its supercar-like looks, and it remains the best performance bargain on sale today.
Volvo joins Australia's V8 Supercars series [w/video]
Mon, 17 Jun 2013It was just a rumor, but now it's official, mates: Volvo will be joining the V8 Supercars series in Australia with an official team for 2014. Volvo is partnering with Garry Rogers Motorsport and its own Polestar tuning firm to create Volvo Polestar Racing.
A V8 engine will be produced by the Swedish arm of the racing effort, and will be supplied to the Garry Rogers team, which will get the whole shebang ready for the track. The outfit will be running two V8 Supercars "based on the production S60 road car." Considering that the S60 uses a range of transversely mounted engines with four, five or six cylinders (powering either the front or all four wheels) while the new race car will employ a V8 sending about 650 horsepower to the rear wheels, make that very loosely based on the production S60...
Volvo claims this is the first factory-backed entry in the V8 Supercars series from a luxury brand. We should note, though, that Mercedes-Benz is represented in the series with an E-Class sedan, but that outfit isn't quite an official entry from the car's German parents. In any case, you're encouraged to watch the teaser video and read the press release below for all the details.
