San Diego, California, United States
1990 Volvo 740 GL. Virtually Brand New with ONLY 8,012 original miles! Absolutely beautiful condition in and out. Color is White with Gray leather interior, Black painted pin stripes. An original California car sold at San Diego Volvo and has never left. So new that it still has the dealer “New Car Delivery” tag info attached to the rear passenger door glass as well as the factory tags on the driver’s floor mat and seat adjust handle. It has Always been garaged. I acquired it from the 1st owners’ estate so only 2 adult owners have pampered it with loving care. All of the standard and optional equipment is working perfectly. This is an amazing car in very well preserved condition. It is super clean from top to bottom and has been professionally maintained, both mechanically and cosmetically. Specific details and descriptions are listed below. If interested or for more information, please call Barry @ 619-952-9611
Factory options: *Automatic Transmission *Leather interior *Heated Front Seats *Sliding Steel Sunroof *Interval Windshield Wipers *15” Steel Wheels *Power Steering *Power Brakes *Electric Windows *Power Door Locks *Electric Rear Window Defroster *Air Conditioning *AM/FM Stereo Radio w/ Cassette *Power Antenna -Driver’s Side Air Bag
Mechanical: Nothing has been modified mechanically in any way. It has just been through a complete and rigorous service and detail - sparing no expense to bring everything up to date and ready for reliable, safe, everyday use. The 2.3 liter I4 provides smooth and ample power. It feels tightly connected to the road while delivering smooth travel in town or on the freeway. This car runs and drives as new and the low mileage and professional maintenance are evident from the onset. The engine fires to life instantly with a smooth idle and maintains proper engine temperature in city or highway driving. The engine accessories turn quietly and work well, with the AC compressor keeping the inside very cold and the alternator keeping the battery well charged. The engine bay is 100% intact and has just had a light detailing. Everything needed to achieve its mechanical peak has been done including, but not limited to: Oil and transmission fluid/filter change, Radiator flush and service, battery, complete brake servicing, new timing chain, R-12 A/C serviced (ICE-COLD!!), all fluids checked and topped off as needed, the chassis and hinges were freshly lubricated, and the lamps, warning lights and interior illumination tested. The undercarriage remains remarkably clean down to the creases and crevices due to never being driven in winter conditions. The steering is tight and smooth and the suspension
is in excellent shape handling all roads with ease and rounding corners with no
roll or sway. The original tires were
just replaced (less than 100 miles) due to age with Michelin Primacy MXV4 tires
(size P195/65R15) providing an amazing ride. Factory wheel covers are in great shape with
only the slightest bit of rash on one. The
car tracks down the road straight and smooth at any speed. The original unused spare
tire has never been removed and the jacking tools are present. The original paint is in excellent condition and has just had a full detail. It has never been involved in a collision of any kind. There are a couple of minor flaws as would be expected such as very minor nicks or chips, but far less than one would expect of a vehicle this age. No dents, scratches, or rust. Nothing has been touched or covered up. All of the labels and badges intact. The front headlights/surrounds and tail-light lenses are perfect and free of any sun-fading or cracking as would be expected from being garaged/covered. The glass and weather-stripping is factory fresh all around. The gentle care and light use it was given are evident. The underside is clean and wholly preserved.
The interior is very crisp and new-looking, with the
beautiful leather seats showing no holes, burns or tears and zero wear. It’s never carried any children, pets, or
food. The dashboard is perfect and entirely
without cracks or fading, and the switches and controls were used with gentle
touch. The headliner has just been replaced with NOS due to sagging in a couple
of small areas. Carpet is as new all
around with no fading. The door panels and
door pulls are perfect. The rear seat is
as new with no holes or tears. Comes
with the original set of factory floor mats.
2 have a very small stain on them (note - driver’s mat still retains the floor
mat tag and the “Real Leather” tag still hangs on the driver’s seat adjuster). The trunk area is immaculate. Absolutely no squeaks or rattles. If you are looking for an extremely clean, ultra-low mileage Volvo, this would be an excellent choice. This one feels solid, quiet and tight at highway speeds and is a joy to drive around town. Bid with confidence - this is arguably the nicest available in the country at any price.

Swedish man charged with spying on Volvo for Russia
Tue, Feb 23 2021STOCKHOLM — Sweden has indicted a 47-year-old man suspected of handing information to a Russian diplomat, the Swedish Prosecution Authority said on Monday. The prosecutor said in a statement that the man, who was not identified, had worked as a consultant at several Swedish companies, where he had illegally obtained and sold information, placing the country's security at risk. Public service broadcaster SVT said the man was Swedish. "While a consultant at his former workplaces, I allege that he obtained material with the purpose of providing information to a foreign power, in this case Russia," prosecutor Mats Ljungqvist said. "The man was apprehended whilst meeting a Russian diplomat where he had just received 27,800 Swedish crowns ($3,360) from the diplomat." SVT reported that the man being charged had passed on information from automaker Volvo Cars and truckmaker Scania. A Scania spokesman confirmed that the man had worked as a consultant at the firm, while Volvo Cars declined to comment. The authority said the man had transferred material from computers to memory sticks as well as photographing the screen of his work computer, adding the crime could carry a sentence of up to six years in prison. "The crime is serious and, if convicted, the suspect could expect a lengthy sentence," Ljungqvist said.
Watch these Super Bowl car commercials [UPDATE]
Sat, Feb 2 2019On Sunday, February 3, the New England Patriots take on the Los Angeles Rams in Super Bowl 53 at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta, Georgia. Some will watch because of the storyline of the old-school dynasty facing off against the new-school wunderkinds, but a large chunk of people will solely be watching for the commercials. Lucky for those who slot into the latter category, many of the manufacturers release their super bowl ads ahead of time, or have simply opted to release the commercials only online. Scroll down to see what car companies have already shown their cards. Audi Audi goes the comedic route in its clip for the Big Game. It starts with a grandpa showing his grandson a gorgeous Audi e-tron GT tucked away in a garage before he's shaken awake. Turns out he was just choking on a cashew in his cubicle at his boring job. Dodge Dodge does what it knows: create enough smoke to punch more holes in the ozone layer. Set to "The Devil Went Down to Georgia (the Super Bowl is in Atlanta, get it!?), a Challenger SRT Hellcat widebody, Charger SRT Hellcat, and Durango SRT are seen ripping through a city, leaving a trail of rubber crumbs in their wakes. Genesis Genesis has not yet released a commercial prior to the Super Bowl, but it is the official luxury vehicle of the NFL. Because of this, Genesis is hosting a fan experience for 10 days before the game. It will showcase the brand's cars, offer games, and have photos opportunities and autograph days. Hyundai Jason Bateman alert! Hyundai is one of the few companies to hook a major celebrity for its advertisement, and the casting is perfect. Bateman plays a doorman who takes people to various terrible events in life, including root canals, the middle seat, and shopping for a car. The ad centers around Hyundai's Shopper Assurance, which is Hyundai's new method for car shopping. Jeep An old 1963 Jeep Gladiator finds its strength in the crusher and transforms into a a new 2020 Gladiator, with a firm declaration that the nameplate is officially back. Kia Through Kia's commercial, a young boy wonders out loud what it'd be like if the millions spent on Super Bowl commercials were used to help others.
Geely chairman is now the single biggest investor in Daimler
Fri, Feb 23 2018Li Shufu, the chairman and main owner of Chinese carmaker Geely, has built a stake of 9.69 percent in Daimler AG, the German carmaker said in a regulatory filing on Friday. The stake, worth nearly $9 billion at the current valuation for Daimler shares, makes Li the biggest single shareholder in the maker of Mercedes-Benz cars, trucks and vans headquartered in the German city of Stuttgart. A Daimler spokesman called the stake purchase a private investment by Li. "We are delighted, with Li Shufu, to have won over another long-term investor who is convinced of Daimler's innovative prowess, strategy and future potential," the spokesman said in response to a request for comment. "Daimler knows and respects Li Shufu as a Chinese entrepreneur of particular competence and forward thinking." Li's stake purchase makes him the top shareholder in Daimler ahead of the Kuwait Investment Authority, which owned 6.8 percent as of Sept. 30, according to Thomson Reuters data. Earlier this month, the German newspaper Bild am Sonntag reported that the Chinese industry giant was seeking to become Daimler's biggest shareholder, likely exceeding the 6.8-percent stake of the Kuwait Investment Authority. The paper said Daimler had reportedly turned down Geely's $4.5 billion offer for a 5-percent stake via a discounted share placement, saying that Geely could buy shares in the open market. Institutional investors currently own 70.7 percent of Daimler, and the company already has strong ties to Chinese automakers BAIC and BYD. Bild am Sonntag said the move was intended as a strategic alliance against Apple, Google and Amazon on autonomous and connected cars. And Reuters reported that Daimler wants to have bespoke "robo taxis" on the road quicker than Google's Waymo, and views Geely as a strong partner for that. Geely conversely is interested in Daimler's electric car battery technology, and sources quoted by the German paper say there are plans to establish joint electric car manufacturing in Wuhan, China, to meet China's smog-reducing quotas. Geely is developing the Lynk & Co. brand of electric and hybrid cars. Geely owns Volvo, which has enjoyed a renaissance under the arrangement, as well as the maker of London's black cabs. In December, it bought a stake in AB Volvo, the maker of Volvo trucks.
