Gorgeous ALL ORIGINAL, 2 Owner Volvo in Rare Color Combo

     Here is a beautiful 1978 Volvo 245DL Wagon in awesome condition inside and out. This car is very special in several ways. It is a two female owner car which has always been garaged and well maintained. This low mileage Wagon comes in a beautiful Cherokee Red on red vinyl color scheme which really sets this vehicle off. These cars are few and far in between, especially in this condition. This is your chance to own a truly one of a kind automobile!

      The car was bought new on 11-17-78 at Rock Road Motors of St. Louis, MO by Loretta Kelley and traveled only 11,000 miles while in her ownership, and was purchased out of her estate around 2001 by its second owners who retired to Tucson AZ around 2008 and brought Old Red with them. The previous owner took extensive care of the car and always garaged it over their 13 year love affair with this beauty. This car was her pride and joy and always received the best care and service at authorized Volvo shops. Don't miss your chance to own a very clean and solid '78 245DL.

The following is a list of options as this 245DL is currently equipped:

-Original 2.0L 4CYL Engine

-Optional 4 Speed Automatic Transmission

-Rare Ice Cold A/C

-Optional Roof Rack

-Original Volvo AM/FM Radio

-All 5 Matching Like New Bridgestone Tires

-Original Steel Wheels

      The body on the car is in very good condition and was extremely well maintained. The paint on the car is finished in striking Cherokee Red and is in beautiful show condition. The paint is virtually perfect with only a few small chips as to be expected on a car that is meant to be driven. The car has been completely inspected underneath from front to back and is solid as a rock as any well cared for garaged car should be, and has never been in any accidents. The car is riding on original steel Volvo wheels and chrome trim rings with like new Bridgestone tires. All chrome trim is gorgeous, glass is all original, and rubber seals are in great shape.

      The interior is all original condition all around. The dash is free of any cracks or fading. The rest of the interior is very nice condition with absolutely no cracks or damage. The supple red seats are all in very good condition and look like they have been very well preserved original examples. The carpets are all very nice are not worn or damaged and appear original. All dials and controls function as they should; all windows and rear hatch also are fully functional. All lights, gauges switches, and accessories work as they should. The trunk compartment is very clean and does have the original jack, the new matching spare tire and wheel which appear to never have touched the pavement! Also included is the original, complete, set of tools in bag!

      Mechanically, this 245DL runs GREAT! The car starts right up and shifts smooth as silk. The 2.0L engine is very quick and responsive. It is reliable, easy to fix, and parts are readily available.The internal fuel pump was recently replaced along with the idle valve, in addition to a fresh radiator a couple years ago. The suspension is very tight and feels solid even at autobahn speeds above 70mph. The front rotors and brakes have been replaced followed by an alignment. The car was always regularly serviced and was indicated by the huge pile of receipts. The car just had the A/C serviced and had a tune-up!

      The car also has manuals, service books, tool kit, and original Arizona copper plates!

      All in all, this is one of the neatest Volvos that I have had the privilege of being associated with. It has been professionally maintained and truly loved by its previous owners. This 245DL is a fantastic car for the price. This is your chance to get a classic Volvo, which will only go up in value. The car also has a clean Arizona Title. Any further questions please call Jon at 480-703-2337. The car is located in Sunny Scottsdale, Arizona.

Sunday Drive: Taking a gaze into the automotive crystal ball

Sun, Oct 22 2017

Mankind has long been fascinated by the future. So it makes sense that this past week's top stories were all about cars, trucks, and SUVs that won't be hitting the market until the 2019 model year. And right at the top of the list is the Ram 1500. We've come to know Ram as the truck maker that styles its pickups with cues cribbed from big rigs, but that look has slowly evolved over time into something uniquely its own. The next Ram 1500 continues this trend, with a newly refined look that we can't wait to see in person. Up next is the 2019 Chevy Silverado. Pickup trucks have been, continue to be, and will remain the best-selling vehicles in America. And General Motors is a leader in the field, with two distinct offerings with which to entice buyers, one from the bread-and-butter Chevrolet brand and one wearing the slightly more upscale GMC badge. The Chevy looks to get LED lighting elements for 2019, which ought to keep the truck from looking dated when compared to the Ford F-150 and the previously mentioned Ram 1500. From there we move past pickup trucks and into SUVs and sedans. The 2019 Jeep Cherokee looks to get toned down a bit with its next refresh, and the '19 BMW 3 Series continues its slow evolutionary journey at the top of its aspirational sales pedestal. Finally, spy shots give way to official production reveals for the 2019 Audi A7 and Polestar 1. This pair of European luxury cars won't compete with one another – one is a rakish hatchback and the other a sports coupe – any further than for the eyeballs of our readers, but both proved popular enough to merit inclusion in our weekly roundup. As always, tune in to Autoblog next week for a front-row seat to all the happenings worth following in the automotive industry. 2019 Ram 1500 spotted without the classic crosshairs 2019 Chevy Silverado spied with new LED accents 2019 Jeep Cherokee reveals a much more normal face 2019 BMW 3 Series spy shots reveal production lights, new interior details 2019 Audi A7 revealed: More torque, refined styling Polestar 1 First Look | The 600 horsepower hybrid Scandinavian Green Audi BMW Chevrolet Jeep RAM Volvo Truck Hatchback SUV Future Vehicles Hybrid Luxury Performance Sedan sunday drive polestar 1

Volvo and Ericsson to take Spotify on the road

Thu, 27 Dec 2012

Volvo is working to bring Spotify to its vehicles. Ericsson has announced it will provide its Connected Vehicle Cloud service to Volvo for future products, and Spotify streaming music is part of that service. Like Toyota Entune and other infotainment services, the Connected Vehicle Cloud will use the driver's smartphone as a modem to stream music and serve as a base for other applications, all of which will be controllable through the vehicle interface. Expect to see the service launch in 2014, though Ericsson stresses later generations will feature an embedded modem with its own SIM card that will piggyback off of the owner's phone data plan.
But that system won't show up in production vehicles until at least 2016. In the interim, Ericsson says it will continue to work with government agencies on its car-to-car communication efforts. That program could eventually help pave the way toward autonomous road trains capable of helping vehicles travel safely together while also reducing traffic congestion. Wired has a full break down of the Connected Vehicle Cloud strategy. You can read it here.
