Selling my 1990 Volvo 740, bought newer Volvo and no longer need this one.
Have owned this car since July 1999, have lots of service tickets by a Volvo shop
in Austin Texas that has serviced this car since I bought it in "99" lots of new parts.
Drove it from Texas to Iowa this past November without any problems and got
around 24 MPG, made lots of trips from Texas to Oklahoma City and would do it again
if I had to.
Almost new tires with probably 95% of the tread left. New Volvo break pads, hose's and belts
are in good condition, fresh front end bushings, tune up, battery, alternator etc,
Teal colored paint is ok and looks ok leaned up but does have dings and wear. Clear coat is pealing badly on top, hood and trunk.
Interior is ok but driver seat torn and wore, headliner is ok but missing trim around sunroof.
Last time I drove the car last week it sounded like it had an exhaust leak and the odometer stopped.
This was at just a little below 345,000 miles. I do have more pics if needed, just ask.
Pics attached here were taken a few days before listing here.
Selling this car as is, so any questions please ask before bidding. Winning bidder shall make a
good faith payment of $100.00 within 48 hours of winning the bid, I will accept the ballance payment
by paypal, cashiers check or Money order only and non paying bidders will be reported as such to EBay
Ido not provide shipping for this Item.
Thanks for looking at my Volvo, hope to find it a good home

Volvo C30 Polestar Concept hits the 'Ring
Mon, 05 Aug 2013It's been over three years since the Volvo C30 Polestar Concept was unveiled, driven by journalists and, as it turns out, lapped around the Nürburgring with Scandinavian Touring Car Championship driver Robert Dahlgren behind the wheel. For whatever reason, the video of the 'Ring track session was only published by the tuning company yesterday. (Another discrepancy: Did Polestar's C30 lose 46 horsepower somewhere along the line? Because the video states that it has 405 hp, while the company's website quotes 451 hp...)
Whatever the case, the tuned Volvo is a beast, much more so than the similar-looking, 250-hp 2013 Volvo C30 Polestar Limited Edition that was sold last year. With 451 hp (sounds better than 405 hp, doesn't it?), all-wheel drive, limited-slip differentials front and rear and Öhlins dampers, the Polestar Concept checks all of the right boxes for us.
For some reason, the video, which you can watch below, seems a bit vanilla to us. Perhaps the overly dramatic music takes away from the action and the beautiful sounds of the turbocharged five-cylinder engine?
Apple announces CarPlay in-car iPhone interface
Mon, 03 Mar 2014Apple, maker of tech items like the iPhone, iPad and Mac line of computers, is extending its reach into the automotive market, making a fairly big announcement ahead of the Geneva Motor Show. No, it hasn't bought Tesla (yet). Instead, Apple has announced CarPlay, an all-new means of controlling an iPhone through your car.
Now, this doesn't strike us as some gimmicky thing. It's become increasingly common for automakers to take advantage of the high-speed data streams its customers enjoy on their smartphones in order to integrate navigation, traffic, audio and other infotainment items into a car's touchscreen interface. The Chevrolet Spark and Sonic are two prime examples of this move, using an iPhone's data stream for Siri integration and data for a third-party navigation app.
Owners will be able to plug in their iPhones to their cars via the USB port and gain control of a number of the device's functions, all through a car's touchscreen.
Volvo to finally replace XC90 in 2014
Wed, 16 Jan 2013There's not a whole lot of life left in the current Volvo XC90, but it seems a replacement is on the way. According to What Car?, Volvo will launch its new flagship crossover sometime in 2014, riding on an all new platform that will eventually underpin several models in the company's range.
According to Volvo boss Hakan Samuelsson, this new architecture will eventually underpin the next-generation S60, V70, S80 and XC60, all of which will be getting mid-cycle enhancements over the next year. In speaking to What Car?, Samuelsson said that Volvo would not try to follow the paths set by BMW and Mercedes-Benz, instead focusing on "safety, elegant design and user-friendly functionality" for its next round of new cars.
The new XC90 will remain a seven-passenger vehicle and will be powered by a range of four-cylinder engines. Volvo will soon be dropping the five- and six-cylinder powertrains from its lineup.
