This has to be one of the nicest older Volvos around here.
I have been a Volvo 240 fan for many years.  My personal 240 has been in our family for a long time, but I got the chance to purchase this car from the 2nd owner just recently.   I had been "stalking" him for quite a while, and just recently he decided to part with the car he bought and babied for many years.  It's A local car bought here new in Oklahoma City at Benchmark Motors, the Volvo dealer at the time and serviced by the dealer and specialists ever since. Plus, it is one of the ultra rare 240 Classics, which were the last 1600 cars made and had special colors and options including wood dash trim, special "Lattice" alloy wheels, etc. In fact it is #273 of the last 1600 cars to be exact!

   If you are looking at this listing, I am sure you are familiar with the famous classic 240.  They are built like tanks, and with quality that has allowed many to make it well over the 300,000 mile and 500,000 mile mark.   I have personally owned one with over 300k miles that still was in great shape.  

Like I said, This car was bought new in Oklahoma City, and has lived here ever since. It has  been garaged, and fastidiously maintained as evidenced by the  condition.    Also, the owners were pretty picky when it came to cosmetics of the car.  It was always washed at the local carwash, and regularly waxed.   Inside, the owners regularly cleaned and detailed the interior keeping it looking very nice.   Under the hood, it is nearly spotless and looks great.  The tires are also in good shape as well and nearly new.  Recently it has had the A/C serviced and it is still blowing cold.

 
If you have been looking for one of the rarest and nicest 240's this could be it.   Perfect? no of course its not, after all it is over 20 years old, but if you want a very good one, here it is.  I have the car for sale locally as well, so  I reserve the right to end this listing at any time.  I am open to reasonable offers, so let me know.   Terms:  Buyer pays shipping, although, I can help get it shipped for much less than most people will quote.  Sold as is where is with no guarantee or warranty. Must be paid for within 5 days of auction end. Thanks! 405-420-6996

Volvo Polestar reveals new V8 Supercars engine

Mon, 09 Dec 2013

Volvo may be better known for turbo fives and inline fours, but in 2005 it launched the XC90 with a new eight-cylinder engine built for it by Yamaha. Fast forward to this past June when Volvo announced its intention to enter Australia's V8 Supercars series, where it would compete with the likes of Ford, Holden, Nissan and Mercedes-AMG. This is the engine with which it intends to do so.
Revealed this weekend at the Sydney 500, this competition-spec powerplant is based on the same B8444S that powered the XC90 and S80 (not to mention the Noble M600), but tuned for racing duty to be shoehorned into the new S60 touring car. The 60-degree aluminum block has been bored out from 4.4 liters to 5.0, its compression ratio boosted to 10:1, modified to run on E85 bio-ethanol and its redline increased to 7500 rpm. Volvo also promises a unique engine note from its new racers.
While Volvo and its racing partner Polestar haven't released official output numbers, regulations call for outputs between 620 and 650 horsepower - in any event, a whole lot more than the 311 hp it produces in stock form. (Noble managed to squeeze that much out of the same block, but that required twin turbochargers while this unit remains naturally aspirated.) Scope out the details in the press release below and the photos from the reveal in the gallery above.

2015 Volvo XC90 proves Sweden's auto industry is alive and well [w/video]

Fri, 03 Oct 2014

The most important new Volvo in quite some time has made its first auto show appearance, with the second-generation XC90 debuting at the 2014 Paris Motor Show.
As we discussed in both our original post and Deep Dive feature, the new XC90 remains a three-row crossover for 2015, although it ditches the first-gen model's top-end, turbocharged six-cylinder in favor of a single twin-charged, 2.0-liter, four-cylinder engine. By pairing that with a plug-in-electric powertrain, the king of the XC90 range, the T8 TwinEngine, will offer up 400 horsepower. So yeah, performance should be brisk.
Also appearing on 2015 XC90 will be an entirely new, Apple CarPlay-compatible infotainment system with a big, vertical touchscreen display at its heart. Based on the videos we've seen, the new system looks responsive, feature-laden and quite attractive.

Automotive April Fools' joke roundup [w/videos]

Mon, 01 Apr 2013

Happy April, everyone. And we all know what this first day of the month means: April Fools' Day. Today is a national holiday for pranksters with the Internet acting as a serious enabler, and it's always fun to see what kind of vivid imaginations exist out there in the automotive world. The abundance of fake news gets a little old as the day rolls on, but we did manage to get in a few chuckles thanks to a handful of major automakers and automotive news outlets that got into the pranking spirit this year
Some of our favorites this year includes Subaru showing what happens when you combine a bunch of rumors, a Corvette some may have already thought was a joke or Honda providing some in-car innovation circa the late 1980s. Honestly, we're still waiting for official confirmation from Mitsubishi that the recently introduced 2014 Mirage is an elaborate April Fools' joke using a failed design intended for the 1995 Geo Metro. We dug up as much "official" OEM foolishness we could find, as well as some of our other favorites, and posted them all below.
