1977 Volvo 245 Dl Wagon West Coast Car on 2040-cars
Swansea, Massachusetts, United States
|
We bought this car 6 years ago in Portland Oregon and shipped it to our home in Massachusetts 3 years ago. Its been our only car for 6 years and has never let us down. It has new parts including fuel pump, transmission mount, brake pads. Always has its oil and fluids changed on schedule. Body is in very good condition, with minor surface rust. No major rot except a small patch under the back left fender and the roof also has some clear coat pealing. Floors are solid. Interior is original and well kept. Some small cosmetic issues. Seats are in great shape. Original seat covers, alloy wheels, full spare tire, tools, and vanity mirror. Timing belt was replaced in 2010, and the steering column was repaired a year ago. Speedometer stopped working shortly after and so did the odometer, fuel gauge and instrument console light. Rear, right passenger door handle is broken. Windshield was replaced 3 weeks ago and original trim was not put back on, although it comes with the car. The odometer reads 223k. Has newer 240 turbo exhaust and ipd sway bars. Tires have good tread. All exterior lights, signals, etc work. Starts, runs, drives and stops great. Passed MA inspection a month ago and has valid sticker until 2015. Clean MA title. We're selling it because we bought a camper and are towing it back to Oregon with a van. We really want this car to go to a good home and to someone who loves Volvos like we do. It was recently used as the main car in the film Infinitely Polar Bear with Mark Ruffalo and Zoe Saldana that will be out this spring. Cool, right? NBD.

Volvo confirms unnamed US model reveal for NY show
Thu, 21 Mar 2013Tucked into the press release for the "display debut" of the Volvo V60 Plug-In Hybrid at the New York Auto Show, Volvo snuck in a single line announcing that it will also be introducing a new model for the North American market. As much as we'd love to see the svelte V40 on American roads, we're pretty sure the automaker is looking to fill its US station wagon void with the V60.
The 2014 Volvo V60 is part of a comprehensive lineup update that was unveiled earlier this month in Geneva, and it would give Volvo dealers a conventional wagon (not including the XC70) for the first time since the V70 and V50 were killed off. We'll still be keeping our fingers crossed for the stylish V40 hatchback or the fuel-efficient V60 diesel hybrid, but we have to wait until next week to find out for sure.
Ex-Volvo boss Stefan Jacoby to head GM's international operations
Fri, 02 Aug 2013He was too talented not to surface somewhere, we just didn't know where and when. Nine months ago, Stefan Jacoby stepped down from his post as Volvo CEO, a move that caught many off guard. At the time, the separation was called "amicable," but word is that the strong-willed executive clashed with owners Geely and the automaker's board.
Jacoby will have a new set of challenges on his hands, as he has just been named Executive Vice President Consolidated International Operations for General Motors. That means the Hannover-born Jacoby will head up the company's operations in Asia, Africa, Europe and the Middle East, where he will be responsible for over 100 countries and territories. Jacoby succeeds Tim Lee, who has been named chairman of GM China. Lee will also retain his post as Executive Vice President Global Manufacturing.
Jacoby's dealings with Geely should help him in his Asian market duties, but he also counts time as the head of Volkswagen of China on his resume, so he's very well-versed in the market's peculiarities.
Volvo S60 Polestar concept plays in the snow with Mercedes C63 AMG
Thu, 24 Jan 2013Chris Harris took to a snowy stretch of tarmac to get a fingertips-on-the-wheel feel of the Volvo S60 Polestar concept. Harris says the turbocharged sedan with 508 horsepower and 424 pound-feet of torque - and a manual transmission - is "a study to see if Volvo can get back into the fast-car market." The Polestar S60 concept, one of which was already purchased for $300,000 by a private buyer, is still making the publicity rounds because even Volvo's Chinese owners realize that, as Harris says, "Volvo sold more cars because it made fast cars" like the old 850 T5 Wagon that stormed the British Touring Car Championship in the 1990s.
For reference, Harris compares the blue wonder to the Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG and its 487 hp and 442 lb-ft. The question is, were Volvo to get the price of a production version of the S60 Polestar to climb way down from its 200,000-pound sticker, could it be worthy competition to the established giants?
You can watch Harris divine the answer via a lot of drifting through the snow and a drag race in the video below.
