1984 Volvo 240 Gt Inter-cooler Turbo on 2040-cars
Bakersville, North Carolina, United States
You are looking at a classic TANK!
This 1984 Volvo 240GLT or (244GLT) turbo is a Sherman tank. It is the 2nd time I have owned it and its in great condition as I have in the last year put almost $2,000 into it. (please see the pic of one of the receipts). The car is rare in that it is a TURBO INTER-COOLER 4 speed trans with electronic overdrive (the button in the middle of the shiftier). Everything on the car works! The car is in the Volvo high mileage club! It has 329K and if you are a Volvo person this does not scare you especially with all the maintenance records I have to prove how well kept the car has been. I have maintenance records dating back to 1992! The car has new leather interior, virgo turbo wheels, and Super clean vinyl headliner. It has a nice aftermarket Keenwood CD player, Moon roof (does not leak). Tires are about 80% and all gauges in the car work including the clock! It has factory A/C and the heat will run you out of the car! The body is in good shape with NO rust anywhere! The paint is the paint from the factory so it is pretty good but not perfect. The trunk is the worst (see pics) It is "spider webbed" It is really the only part of the car that NEEDS painting. There are some scratches and dull spots in other places (again factory 1984 paint) but a nice Buffing would bring it back to life! The car is awesome! FYI-It will MOVE ON too! There are not many of these out there especially as nice as this one! PLEASE feel free to call me with any questions you may have at 828-467-3369. *This car is for sell locally as well and I reserve the right to end the auction if it sells. THANK YOU FOR LOOKING! *If you bid PLEASE be prepared to buy! |

Volvo still undecided on offering plug-in hybrid versions of all models
Thu, 03 Jul 2014The automotive world is only a few months away from getting its first real glimpse at Volvo's big gamble with the unveiling of the next-generation XC90 (pictured above as the Concept XC Coupe). We're already getting a preview of the revolutionary upgrades with the introduction of the Swede's Volvo Engine Architecture family into some of its 2015 models, like the recently driven S60. These changes are just the start, though. The real magic could be in the powertrains.
Dean Shaw, Volvo Cars North America vice president of corporate communications hinted to Autoblog a few months ago that every model sold in the US could come in a plug-in hybrid variant, starting with the new XC90. Despite confirmation rumors that this has now come to pass, Shaw told AutoblogGreen that the only thing Volvo is confirming right now is that the platform is capable of that. "We haven't confirmed that all US Volvos would be available with PHEV," he said.
Shaw did confirm that that XC90 will come with a gas and plug-in hybrid powertrain that offers "around 400 horsepower." According to Plugin Cars, the new XC90 will be unveiled in August and will make its public debut at an as-yet-unnamed auto show in the fall. Also, sometime during the 2016 model year, a plug-in hybrid variant will be added to its lineup.
Volvo Polestar reveals new V8 Supercars engine
Mon, 09 Dec 2013Volvo 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.
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.
