Volvo 240 (1990)
for sale

Price: US $2,800.00

Description:

Available on auction is my
1990 Volvo 240 with around 110, 500 miles
. I recently purchased this around 4 months ago at 107, 800 miles and have done the following update/maintenance making this my daily driver. Mileage will increase until sold. Car runs excellent and can see it going for another 200k miles with proper upkeep. Recently did two 550 mile trips up north to New York and no problems. Two people plus 80 lbs of stuff with AC on at 90F+ heat. Does not overheat. Great on gas, for this car averaging 26 MPG on highway with my mods (see below)!
Car has power windows, working 5 bar oil gauge and voltmeter gauge, and just replace large clock with tachometer. Newer JVC stereo cd player and with okay sound system. Bentley Guide and extra misc parts/fuses/relays comes with sale.
Was planning to do more stuff to the car (see below) as well as give it a paint job to make it look real nice...but will have a new addition to the family so need a bigger car. Also a new contract will have me doing 500+ miles 3-4 times per quarter so rather not put it onto this classic car.
Bid with confidence and drive this car home after you win! Or I can help facilitate shipping with your shipper.
Non-refundable paypal $500 for deposit and cash on pick up only. It is not a try and buy deal but you are welcome to come over for inspection and test drive beforehand.

PROS:

new remanufactured Generation 3 Bosch fuel injectors (higher torque and better MPG but harder idle and lifter sound when pushing it at 80-90 mph when passing on highway -unintentional : ) )(Saw this mod on few forums and at Fiveomotors for over $200+ brand new.)new added 1.5 front lower spoiler lip for aerodynamics and sportier lookadded front and mid undercarraige poly board pan for aerodynamics - I SELL THIS PRODUCT ON EBAY -search item # 231678922850Increase gas mileage to 26-28 mpg on highway averaging 70 mph! Note that this would probably be higher if you drive 55-65 MPH and without AC on. (Originally, this car mpg is 18/24 mpg and mine will average 1-3 miles more per gallon.) Average around 22 mpg in mix suburb/highway for me. Car is more zippy with the new injectors as well. I still have the old injectors and will be included in the sale unless it is sold on ebay first. You can sell these or revert back to old injectors and sell other ones making $50-100 back!
AC blue snowflake flip switch mod. This mod allows you to turn on your AC compressor manually and still adjust the temperature vs having the climate control on all the time. You can search this on the Internet.

CONS:
(was planning to fix or get this done but will now leave it up to you)
-seat heaters not working (have not looked at them yet as it is summer but all wiring is there, light works, so connections probably just needs to be reattached on seat heater coils which is the likely issue)-common warning bulb light on dash when stepping on brakes (have not resolve this yet and is minor issue to me)-cruise control (checked on all hoses/connections are good so probably because of warning bulb light that is causing it from engaging)-fan does not work on level 1 but does on level 2-4-need new rear shocks (pair of KYB Gas-A-Just for $62 on ebay)-there is rust on rear wheel-wells and misc areas as per images; 98% rust free on undercarriage and none on floor pan areas (quoted by my mechanic/body-shop $700-800 for bodywork and full paint job)(Current paint is acceptable especially from 10 feet away but it you want it to look nice, then best get it done)(I took it through the car wash and it left streaks as per passenger rear but suspect it will come out with good wash and wax)-there are 2 minor dents: 1 on rear driver fender and 1 on front passenger corner as shown in images-there are 2 cracks on the dash but you will not notice it when driving-other minor misc things for a 25 year old car that stops it from being a perfect brand new one
