Volvo 245 Wagon 169k Miles, Incredible Condition A/t, No Accidents, R134a on 2040-cars
Middletown, New York, United States
This is a survivor car. It is in really nice condition, with no body damage and no evidence of any accidents. The paint appears to be original, as well as all the trim. Only the windshield has been replaced and is not original. Their is a bit of surface rust in a few areas, and one small spot with a bit more that I tried to capture with the camera.
The car does have an upgraded radio, but surprisingly enough, still has the original tool kit including the Italian manufactured vice grip, which people almost always keep when they sell the car. This car also has the 3rd row seat which is in excellent condition; and the optional plastic Volvo floor mats in all locations, including the rear cargo section. This kept the carpet in extremely good condition. The A/C was converted to R134a in 2010 by a certified shop, whose sticker appears under the hood. In the past 40,000 miles the following repairs and maintenance have been done: Exhaust from cat back, radiator, trans fluid, oil changes( many), front pads, rear pads and rotors, head gasket and water pump, timing belt, Wires ,cap, rotor, and plugs, and airbox cleaned, motor mount, rear shocks.These were all done by the same repair shop. Drivers side trim is loose at the front fender. it is held on with double sided tape. Had I kept the car, I would have ordered the proper clips for it. I am the fourth owner and recently purchased it since I had been looking for one in this condition for a long time; and finally found this one. A week ago I agreed to buy another car and now I can't believe I am selling this one, but I am. A $500 deposit is required at the end of the auction by PayPal, Balance cashiers check or cash. I am located in Orange County NY and can arrange for airport pickup at Steward International Airport (SWF) if required. I can be contacted with questions at 845-239-2368 |

Ford, Volvo top 2014 EyesOn Design awards
Fri, 17 Jan 2014Each year at the Detroit Auto Show, the top vehicle designs are recognized with the prestigious EyesOn Design award for production and concept vehicles. This year, the 32 EyesOn Design judges (comprised of current and former vehicle designers including Chrysler designer and SRT president Ralph Gilles, Kia designer Peter Schreyer and retired General Motors designer Wayne Cherry) handed out three awards for the Best Concept Vehicle, Best Production Vehicle and Innovative Use of Color, Graphics, and Materials.
Beating out the Mercedes C-Class and Ford F-150, the 2015 Ford Mustang was named the Best Production Vehicle as the top auto show debut at this year's Detroit show. The 2014 Volvo Concept XC Coupe took home awards as the Best Concept Vehicle and for its Innovative Use of Color, Graphics and Materials.
Considering the Volvo's primer grey hue and subtle orange accents, it was a rather surprising winner for Innovative Use of Color, Graphics, and Materials over flashier concepts like the Toyota FT-1 and our Editors' Choice top pick, the Kia GT4 Stinger. Other vehicles in the running for the concept car award include the GT4 Stinger and Audi Allroad Shooting Brake
Volvo specs new 450-hp triple-charged four-cylinder engine
Tue, 07 Oct 2014When Volvo lifted the veil on the new XC90 a little over a month ago, it announced that all versions would be powered by one engine design: a new 2.0-liter four-cylinder to be offered in various states of tune. That would range, Volvo said, all the way up to a high-output version with "around 400 horsepower," but while it wouldn't specify exact output, now it has.
The new High Performance Drive-E Powertrain incorporates two parallel turbochargers fed by a third electric turbo-compressor. Instead of feeding the cylinders directly, that third unit spools up the twin turbochargers, working together with a dual fuel pump pressurized to 250 bar.
The result is an output of 450 horsepower - far more than the existing 320-hp version and even more than expected. That also works out to 225 hp/liter, far more than the 177 hp/liter boasted by Mercedes-AMG's high-output turbo four and the 139 hp/liter in the Alfa Romeo 4C. Short of a rotary engine (whose actual displacement is the subject of great debate), you'd have to go up to something like the Koenigsegg One:1 (268 hp/liter) to find a higher specific output than what Volvo's boasting here.
Jeremy Lin's new Volvo has him working out with the XC60
Thu, 23 Jan 2014Jeremy Lin rose to prominence as a point guard for the New York Knicks in February of 2012 when he came out of nowhere to lead the team to a string of victories. Volvo was quick to notice and signed him as the company's US spokesperson that March. Since then, he has starred in several Volvo advertisements, and his latest ad shows just how he uses his Volvo XC60 to train for the court. The highlight is Lin shooting free throws out of the sunroof.
Since leaving the Knicks, Lin has lost some of the visibility and hype that attracted Volvo to him in the first place. Still, commercials must be made, so check out Lin's latest below.
