I have my 1992 Volvo 240 Wagon up for Auction. Please feel free to ask any questions. There is a low reserve on the car and this car is worth every penny. Okay, a little about my Brick:
1992 Volvo 240 Wagon with just over 320,xxx miles on the odometer (yes, the odometer does work). Does not have any warning lights on the dash (yes, they work as well). Just Passed the Emissions PA Sticker Test, Good Til 4/15. I am a classic Volvo enthusiast and have taken meticulous care of my brick. It originally came with cloth seats in which the bottom cushions where really worn out, so I replaced the seats with tan leather seats from a 1990 240. Some of the Maintenance and work that has been on this car is: Normal Maintenance: Every 3 Months Changed Oil with Pennzoil Platinum, Check Flame Trap and Replace (if needed). Brake Pads Replaced Every 6 Months with PBR Brake Pads and new hardware from IpdUSA. This Spring: Replaced Hood Hinge and Alternator (Reconditioned Bosch). Last summer: Replaced Timing Belt, Head Gasket, Water Pump, Belts, K&N Air Filter, Spark Plugs, Distributor Cap/Rotor, Plug Wires and Drive shaft support bearing. Last Spring: Replaced Tires and redid front-end (Struts, Rear Shocks, Ball Joints, Inner/Outer Tie Rods, Driver Side A-Arm, Sway Bar End Links and Bushings - Polyurethane, and replaced all the other bushings as well but with rubber.) Also Got it Aligned. Last Winter: Replaced Catalytic Converter and O2 Sensor (Bosch OEM Fit). I have records from the previous owners as well, which included replacing the Transmission with a reconditioned transmission from a volvo 740 turbo, so it has a little more get up than a regular 240. Condition of the car: Engine - When I had the head off last summer, it did not have a single wear ring or mark. Engine Does NOT LEAK! Runs very smooth and has never let me down. It does need a new motor mount soon though. Transmission - Shifts very smooth and Natural. Has No Issues In Any Gear, Including Overdrive. Body - Paint is very glossy and shiny. No issues what-so-ever with peeling or overcoat issues. Saying that, there is some surface rust spots on the hood and tailgate. Nothing too major. Exhaust - Gaskets have all been replaced lately, cat was replaced last winter and IS VERY QUITE Tires - Over 85% of life left. Good to go! Brakes - About 50-60% life left in this set of pads. Lights - All Work, occasionally going over railroad tracks a bulb would get jarred lose, but that is the only issue I have had. Interior - Tan Leather Seats, Rear Facing 3rd Row of Seats In Back, Back Hatch Area is Tinted, Clean Extra's - Comes with spare tire and volvo tool bag...plus service records. Negatives: Will Need Motor Mount Eventually, Back Side Was Bumped Into By Semi Truck but I painted over it and it is good to go (See picture), Driver side door trim came off this winter but I still have it, Rear Window Wiper Does Not Work, Has Tape Player That Doesn't Work...Speakers Do Work Though. This car will get you from point A to B, and in style. Very Reliable and Extremely Safe for Families or Young Drivers (No Blind Spots in this Car!). The only reason why I am selling it is because I have 3 classic volvos and can only drive one. I would love this to go another Volvo-Crazy Family. I have a Buy-It Now for $2500 (It is worth every penny of that price) also have a low reserve. I am not a dealer, therefore I will not place a warranty on this car. I can say that it is driven on a daily basis and does not let me down. Thanks! On Apr-17-14 at 06:17:10 PDT, seller added the following information: I have my 1992 Volvo 240 Wagon up for Auction.

Volvo S80 nip/tuck spotted in China
Sun, 16 Dec 2012An early look at the new face of the Volvo S80 has made its way to the web. The Chinese site Auto Sina spotted a revised version of the country's S80L out in public and in plain view. Not too long ago, Doug Speck, the global head of marketing and sales for Volvo, said designers were working on a mild facelift for the S60 and S80, and while it is possible the Swedish manufacturer will roll out a different front fascia for the US market, the move seems unlikely.
The S80L seen here boats a tweaked grille and a Passat-inspired lower valance. New wheels and side-view mirrors also appear to be part of the update, as does a modified rear bumper and exhaust outlets. Volvo is set to debut the facelifed S80 next year, and while the manufacturer hasn't delivered an exact time frame, good money is on the vehicle showing up at the Detroit Auto Show in January or the Geneva Motor Show in March. Stay tuned for more information.
Polestar looking to tune Volvo CUVs
Sun, 19 Oct 2014Volvo is getting serious about emerging from the fringes and into the mainstream of the luxury automobile market. But if it's going to challenge the Germans, it's going to need a performance line. And that's just what it's developing with Polestar.
Building on the motorsport partnership that has seen Polestar represent Volvo in the Scandinavian Touring Car Championship, World Touring Car Championship and V8 Supercars series, Polestar has been charged with developing road-going performance Volvos as well. It currently offers comprehensively tuned versions of the S60 and V60, as well as engine upgrades for other models, but the latest word has it that Polestar will turn its attention next to tuning Volvo crossovers like the XC60 and the new XC90, pictured above in top-spec R-Design trim.
Details on how Volvo would modify those models remain to be determined, but it wouldn't be much of a stretch to imagine the XC60 outfitted with similar enhancements to those offered on its sedan and wagon stablemates to mount a challenge to the Audi SQ5. As for the larger XC90, it seems Volvo is already squeezing as much out of its new 2.0-liter triple-charged inline-four as it can, but more aggressive handling, aero and brakes could stand to transform the flagship crossover in pursuit of performance utes like the Mercedes ML63 AMG and BMW X5 M, even if it couldn't quite match their impressive horsepower outputs.
