92 VOLVO 240 DL BASE IN VERY GOOD - EXCELLENT CONDITION, great gas mileage.

This low mileage Volvo runs great.  Let's start with the exterior:

The paint is shiny.  You can see some minor sanding swirls (clear coat upper was redone a few years ago).  There are normal nicks and dings that you would expect of a 22 year old car, but none of them are significant.  One minor ding on hood that is barely noticeable till you get close up.

The mouldings are all good.

The window scrapers (rubber) all all new.

Windshield wipers are new.

The interior is in good shape, seats are comfortable, no major stains.

All dash switches and knobs are present, function, and not cracked.

Dashboard is not cracked and is covered by a dash protector.

All dash lights and shifter lights work.

Cup holders are installed.

Aftermarket radio is installed.  iPod/iPhone control, Pandora control.  I have original radio that I will send with car.

New rear speakers.

New RENSI moulded mats (like OEM Volvo mats, but better)

Trunk is clean.


Mechanics:

Engine compartment is clean.

The car runs well, shifts smooth.

Previous owner replaced Timing belt at around 108K, rear shocks, brakes, fuel pump, various relays.

R-134 Conversion of A/C which works great.



The car is equipped with an aftermarket remote keyless entry which is very handy.

The car is in great shape and shows well, a very pretty color, and intact.

Tires are serviceable and with lots of tread left.

Top torque-to-weight ratios under $100k, $50k and $25k

Tue, 07 Oct 2014

Horsepower may steal a lot of headlines, but the always-more-complex torque figure is often a critical one for both the workingman and the motoring playboy. The measure of rotational force represents the twist that can liquefy one's tires or haul one's horse trailer. Good stuff.
It follows then, that as with the horsepower-to-weight list that we assembled for you a few months ago, a list of cars that offer the most pound-feet with the fewest pounds to carry, is an interesting one to break down. Sure, there's a big difference in how the torque is applied from a turbocharged six-cylinder in a Swedish luxury sedan and a massive heavy-duty truck's turbo-diesel. But being the car/stat geeks that we are, we think it's kinda neat that those two vehicles rank near each other where torque and weight intersect.
As with the horsepower list, we've given you figures as pounds per every one pound-foot. Again broken down into broad price categories, we've got a mixed bag of 2014 and 2015 models here, too. Every effort has been made to select the most up-to-date prices and specs, and we've also to omitted some '14 cars that won't be re-upped after the ongoing yearly changeover.

Irv Gordon's Volvo P1800 has reached 3 million miles

Wed, 18 Sep 2013

While 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.
