For sale: my well-loved 1991 Volvo 240
305,xxx miles Excellent mechanical condition- million mile candidate! Driven every day- extraordinarily reliable Automatic Sunroof Absolutely no rust, save for 1 speck by headlight Texas car for most of its life Located in Lancaster, PA Driver's side passenger door chewed up by a po's dog Dash and some interior plastic cracked- there's a very nice dash cover in place Center console is missing The driver's door only opens with key in lock or when pulling up on the lock pin Everything in the photos would be included with the car. This is the most comfortable car I've ever driven, with all the responsiveness you'd ever want to feel safe and secure. It is in excellent mechanical condition; this car could drive anywhere right now and will run forever :) There are a few dents and dings, but the car is virtually rust-free and the paint is very nice as well. I want to stress that this car has been a joy to own, drive, and care for- and I promise that it will be for you as well :) The only reason I'm listing it is because I would really like to get myself into a Vanagon- if you have one, let me know! |

Irv Gordon's Volvo P1800 has reached 3 million miles
Wed, 18 Sep 2013While we were seated at our desks like good worker bees yesterday, Irv Gordon was continuing his assault on the record books. Gordon, if you recall, is the original owner of a red 1966 Volvo P1800 (owner and car shown above), and yesterday, Volvo says the coupe's odometer clocked its three-millionth mile. The miracle mile occurred on the Seward Highway in Alaska, one of only two states that Gordon had never visited.
It took the New York native more than 20 years to hit his first million miles in 1987 and another 15 years to achieve two million miles in 2002, but a road trip to Alaska will further cement his place in the record books as the car surpasses three million miles. Gordon has almost doubled the 1.69-million mile distance that helped him win a Guinness Book of World Records title for the most miles logged on an originally owned car, and this new momentous distance proves the durability of both man and machine. For more information on Gordon's feat, scroll down for a Volvo press release or check out a website set up to celebrate his latest milestone.
Volvo agrees to transfer tech to new parent Geely
Tue, 11 Dec 2012Following the acquisition of Volvo by China's Zhejiang Geely Holding Group in 2010, we definitely saw this news coming. The two companies have signed an agreement that will give Chinese automaker Geely access to key technologies developed by Volvo, and in turn, the deal could help the Swedish automaker lower its production costs.
As a part of the "technological cooperation agreements" signed by both companies, Automotive News China reports that Geely will be able to tap Volvo for three much-needed technologies, including the use of a midsize platform, Volvo's proven safety innovations and interior air quality systems. The latter two technologies are important to improve the crashworthiness of Geely's cars, along with helping isolate vehicle occupants from China's often severe air pollution. The report says that Volvo tech will likely be used on a premium car brand that Geely is expected to create.
Volvo, on the other hand, is to benefit from the "local market exploration experience and cost control experience" of Zhejiang Geely Holding Group, which is technical way of saying that Volvo will be able reduce its costs by tapping into Geely's established supply chain.
