1982 Volvo 240 Sedan California Car Until 2012 on 2040-cars
Newtown, Pennsylvania, United States
|
I am selling this vintage Volvo 240 as my son has left for college and does not need a car anymore. We purchased this car on EBAY two years ago from a car mechanic in Ohio who owned it for a few months after buying it from a person who drove it to Ohio from California. The body is very solid with one dime side rust spot on the driver's side floor panel. This does not affect the structure. There is surface rust on the fender due to my son sliding against a fence on the way to school on a rainy day. There is no frame damage, I banged out the fender and bumper which was bent. However, the bumper has a crack underneath and some of the rubber molding is loose.. The right person can make it look brand new.
The center console is missing due to the plastic getting brittle which is common for these cars. The air conditioning is not currently working. The upholstery on the driver's side has a number of rips with very minor rips on the passenger and back seat. Recently,the car started to vibrate which needs to be attended to, it happens when you go above 40 mph. I am just too busy to tackle it at the moment. I suspect it could be mountings but I am not sure. Tire threads are at 60%. Overall a solid rugged car that needs some TLC to be brought back to its former glory. Car currently has PA. valid state inspection through June 2015. Again, this car is being sold AS IS and has no warranty. Please look at the pictures, they tell the story, but if you need anymore information about this car please feel free to call me at 215-970-4818. I will be happy to answer any questions you may have. The vehicle history report is showing that the vehicle was towed from the accident, that is not the case, the vehicle was driven home and has been driven ever since. I have listed this car with a very reasonable reserve. This vehicle is also listed locally, so I reserve the right to end the listing early. Happy Bidding! |

Volvo V60 Polestar speeds into view
Mon, 14 Oct 2013Send us photos of a new wagon out testing, and you've got our attention. Send us photos of a fast wagon lapping the Nürburgring and, well, we're just as giddy as can be. Our spy shooters just blessed our inbox with some fresh shots of Volvo's new V60 wagon out testing in Polestar guise, sporting the same Rebel Blue paint job as the thunder-from-Down-Under limited-edition S60 Polestar, as well as an aggressive front fascia, huge wheels, Brembo brakes, a rear diffuser panel and a roof spoiler. Hello there, hot stuff.
Like its sedan counterpart, the V60 Polestar is expected to use a boosted version of Volvo's 3.0-liter turbocharged six-cylinder engine, pumping out something like 350 horsepower. To keep everything in check, that force will almost certainly be sent to the ground via all-wheel drive.
It's unclear if Volvo will sell the V60 Polestar as a limited-edition affair for our friends in Australia, or if this longroof hot-hauler will be offered in other markets this time. After all, Volvo is bringing the V60 over to American soil early next year, so consider our fingers - and toes - crossed.
Volvo recommits to Sweden with development of next-gen platform and engines
Tue, 04 Dec 2012Taking into account the facts that Volvo is now owned by China's Geely and how poorly the European automotive market has been recently, we would have definitely understood if Volvo moved production of its products out of its home market. And yet, the automaker has confirmed that it will be investing billions of dollars into new platforms and engines that will be made in Sweden. On a global scale, Volvo is making roughly $11 billion of investments, and close to half of that is being earmarked for Sweden for plant expansion and upgrades.
The new Scalable Product Architecture (SPA) platform will be the used as the basis for most future Volvo products starting with the next-generation XC90 that will be debuting at the end of 2014. SPA will be used to make up two-thirds of Volvo's sales, and gives Volvo a quicker and easier break from Ford-derived platforms. As for the Volvo Engine Architecture (VEA) family of engines, there are really no details about this mill except that it will be a four-cylinder that is more fuel efficient than current engines.

Volvo updates Inscription packages for 2015 XC60, S80
Tue, 01 Apr 2014Volvo is improving the luxury offered by the XC60 and S80 with upgrades to both models' Inscription packages for 2015. It is also making all of its models (other than the soon-to-be-replaced XC90) available with its new Drive-E engine family and Sensus infotainment system.
The Inscription package was previously available on both the XC60 and S80, but new upgrades include Sovereign Hide leather throughout their interiors, including on their instrument panels, seatbacks, center armrests and headrests. Inscription also adds wood inlaid trim and new floor mats. On the outside, the package is offered in Crystal White Pearl, Electric Silver and - exclusively for the S80 - Ember Black. The XC60 comes with 20-inch, ten-spoke wheels, and the S80 receives 19-inch wheels of the same design.
As part of its sponsorship of a yacht race, Volvo is also bringing the XC60 Ocean Race Edition to the US. Buyers will get their choice of black or blonde leather seats with orange stitching, a map of the race route on the rear load cover and the event's logo around the car.
