1990 Volvo 240 Dl Sedan 4-door 2.3l on 2040-cars
Linden, New Jersey, United States
|
This Volvo 240 DL is in very good overall condition. The engine and transmission are both operating properly. Overdrive works fine. When the engine is idling, it's difficult to hear it running. All drive belts (timing belt and accessory belts) were replaced within the past year, about 8,000 miles ago. Rear brakes are new (rotors & pads); fronts are good. New front shocks. New alternator. New wiper motor. Rear tires have 6,000 miles on them (Pirelli radials). Front tires are still ok. No rust other than a very small spot above the rear bumber. The engine had a full tune-up about 6 months ago. Fuel filter was replaced at that time. Battery is about 9 months old. Paint is all original except the lower parts of the Driver's side doors. They were repaired and re-painted following minor damage from an accident (previous owner). As far as I know, the car has not been in any other accidents. There is a chip (repaired) in the windshield on the passenger side, just above the dasboard. It has been stable for more than a year. The cruise control is not working. Heated seats are not working. The door pockets are cracked in a few places, but usable. There are a few cracks in the dashboard top. The driver's seat is frayed on the beaded edge and the foam padding is well worn but the fabric is still intack. The rest of the upholstery is in very good condition. Headliner is clean and completely intact. The speedometer is working but the odometer stopped working 3 months ago. Actual mileage now is about 140,000. This car has a newer radio and cd player with new speakers mounted on the rear deck. Very good quality. With the recent very cold weather, the car started up right away, every day. The engine does not leak any oil. I have tried to change the oil every 3-4,000 miles. |

Ford, Volvo top 2014 EyesOn Design awards
Fri, 17 Jan 2014Each year at the Detroit Auto Show, the top vehicle designs are recognized with the prestigious EyesOn Design award for production and concept vehicles. This year, the 32 EyesOn Design judges (comprised of current and former vehicle designers including Chrysler designer and SRT president Ralph Gilles, Kia designer Peter Schreyer and retired General Motors designer Wayne Cherry) handed out three awards for the Best Concept Vehicle, Best Production Vehicle and Innovative Use of Color, Graphics, and Materials.
Beating out the Mercedes C-Class and Ford F-150, the 2015 Ford Mustang was named the Best Production Vehicle as the top auto show debut at this year's Detroit show. The 2014 Volvo Concept XC Coupe took home awards as the Best Concept Vehicle and for its Innovative Use of Color, Graphics and Materials.
Considering the Volvo's primer grey hue and subtle orange accents, it was a rather surprising winner for Innovative Use of Color, Graphics, and Materials over flashier concepts like the Toyota FT-1 and our Editors' Choice top pick, the Kia GT4 Stinger. Other vehicles in the running for the concept car award include the GT4 Stinger and Audi Allroad Shooting Brake
Volvo to build range-topping S90 sedan in China
Thu, 13 Nov 2014Volvo is furthering its deep ties in China by announcing a major expansion to its factory in Daqing that will equip the site to build its future S90 sedan. The automaker is promising to make the plant, "one of the most advanced car making facilities in China," according to its press release. Unfortunately, the company isn't specifying the amount being invested or how long the work will take.
Because the northeastern Chinese city of Daqing owns about 37 percent of the automaker, the location for the significant expansion isn't entirely surprising, especially since Geely owns a majority stake in the Swedish brand. The existing factory there employs about 700 people to build the original XC90 for the local market, but the upgrades will allow the plant to handle Volvo's Scalable Product Architecture modular platform.
To be fair, Volvo doesn't specifically call out the S80-replacing S90 by name in its announcement. However, it promises the first vehicle built in Daqing after the expansion will be a new premium sedan, and the upgrades will allow the plant to make "most innovative vehicles in its product range," and the range-topping sedan is widely expected to adopt the S90 moniker.
Watch Polestar talk about the development of its super S60
Fri, 03 May 2013Polestar is getting ready to deliver its first production car, the Volvo S60 Polestar. Letting the S60 stretch its legs, Polestar Racing driver Robert Dahlgren took the blue sedan from Barcelona, Spain to Jokkmokk, Sweden - stopping for wet-weather testing in Germany along the way.
Dahlgren narrates the journey of the "pilot project" that has 350 horsepower and around 368 pound-feet of torque, and will perhaps be the first in an era of hardcore Volvo production cars. It will go on sale in Australia this Summer, with other markets "under investigation." While we non-Aussies wait with fingers crossed, there's a video below to enjoy.
