For sale is my 1991 Volvo 240. The car has been great to me over the time I have owned it, and I would not hesitate to drive it anywhere. This is a special delivery diplomat car that was originally bought in Sweden by the previous owner. I am actually the second owner of the car. It features, Anit-lock brakes, power windows, power door locks, and cruise control. They all function as they should as well. The car is slightly lowered to give a little better stance and a better look. It also features a few extras that I added on. It has black turbo trim, that I repainted. It also features 16" 740 turbo rims. The rims have two tires that are almost new, however, the other two have ok tread buy are worn very crooked. I also added in the stock Volvo small tach in the dash. The car has an Alpine head unit and Infinity 5.25's in the front in the stock Volvo surrounds. There are many new parts on the car which include:
Completely repainted - Dec' 12
New radiator - Jan '13
New timing belt and water pump - Jan '12
Fresh tune up (plugs, wires, car, rotor, air filter) - Mar '13
New back half of exhaust with a Thrush glass pack muffler and straight tip Feb - '13 (One rear exhaust hanger fell off so the exhaust rattles a bit now)
The car drives great as is but has a few little things that could use some attention. First off the odometer in the car does not work (a very common problem for these). It has been stuck at 206,000 since I bought the car. It has approximately 235,000 miles on it at this point. The AC does not work. It may just need a charge but I have never investigated the issue. It needs a new overdrive solenoid, as it sometimes does not like to shift into overdrive right away. I actually have a brand new one, but it is just not installed at the moment. Also, the blower motor makes a lot of noise at times. It does work on all settings but can be loud at times. There is a slight leak in the heater core, as when the heat is on the windows like to fog up. Finally, the left hood hinge has a slight bend in it and thus makes the hood sit a slight bit out of alignment. I do have a good replacement, however, it is tan. This will be included with the car. The check engine light is on (has been since I got the car). These issues do not effect the driveability of the car, and as I said I would not hesitate to drive it anywhere.
This car has been great to me and I am very sad to see her go, but I recently acquired a new car and I can't afford to keep all of them. That is the only reason I'm selling. Thanks for looking. The car is listed for sale locally and I reserve the right to end auction early.

2015 Volvo XC90 proves Sweden's auto industry is alive and well [w/video]
Fri, 03 Oct 2014The most important new Volvo in quite some time has made its first auto show appearance, with the second-generation XC90 debuting at the 2014 Paris Motor Show.
As we discussed in both our original post and Deep Dive feature, the new XC90 remains a three-row crossover for 2015, although it ditches the first-gen model's top-end, turbocharged six-cylinder in favor of a single twin-charged, 2.0-liter, four-cylinder engine. By pairing that with a plug-in-electric powertrain, the king of the XC90 range, the T8 TwinEngine, will offer up 400 horsepower. So yeah, performance should be brisk.
Also appearing on 2015 XC90 will be an entirely new, Apple CarPlay-compatible infotainment system with a big, vertical touchscreen display at its heart. Based on the videos we've seen, the new system looks responsive, feature-laden and quite attractive.
Volvo denies boss Jacoby is taking a run at Opel CEO post
Tue, 07 Aug 2012It seems that every news report that involves the name "Opel" is eventually followed by a report that says, "Uh, never mind." Executives fill positions, then they're gone, or they're supposed to fill positions but duck out before doing so, five-year product offensives turn into grabbing for life preservers, and turnaround plans are followed by... new turnaround plans. With the recent departure of Opel CEO Karl-Friedrich Stracke, Swedish newspaper Dagens Industri reported that Volvo CEO Stefan Jacoby topped the list of candidates to sit in Opel's very hot seat.
Volvo spokesman Stefan Elfstrom has piped up to say "Mr. Jacoby is fully occupied with running Volvo and has no plan for leaving his present job." Stranger things have happened, though, and who knows what the truth is, but we have to admit we'd be surprised if Jacoby jumped off the Volvo express - recently given an $11-billion boost by parent company Geely - to take his chances in the Opel maelstrom.
So Opel's search for a CEO continues. At least we have the Adam to look forward to.
Two more Volvo Concept C Coupe teasers drop [w/videos]
Wed, 28 Aug 2013Volvo is planning to take the wraps off its Concept C Coupe tomorrow ahead of an official unveiling at the Frankfurt Motor Show. If you just can't wait until then, though, Volvo has released two more teaser videos for the new concept.
Like the video from earlier in the week, we get a couple more sneak peeks of the stylish two-door including our first glimpse of the interior. The highly conceptual concept likely hints at a future coupe for the Swedish automaker, and after dropping the C30 and C70 from its lineup over the last couple years, this can't come soon enough. Scroll down to watch both new teaser videos, and stay tuned to see more on this car tomorrow.
