Autocheck

Ebay no longer provides free Autochecks to perspective buyers so I have provided it for you. Just click on the images below to view fullsize screen shots of the report. (Once it opens in Photobucket click the image again to enlarge).

I took lots of photo's and a video of the car so that you can feel comfortable bidding. If you read my description, view every picture, watch the video and study
the Autocheck, you will be just as knowledgeable about the car as anyone who's seen it in person. Also if there's anything you're unsure about, please don't
hesitate to ask. I'll usually answer the same day.

Video

Basic walk around.

Exterior

The exterior is in far above average condition for a car of its age. Little to no rust showing. The undercarriage is also nice solid, as is the trunk. Its been garage kept and it shows. That's not to say its perfect. There are dings, dents and scratches, but overall its in good condition. All 4 tires match and are like new. Don't take my word for it, study the pictures.

Interior

The interior is also in above average condition. In my opinion the interior looks better in person. Its also nice and clean, with no holes or burns. Everything works, that's not say its perfect. There are a few of the typically fragile 240 parts that have seen better days. Overall its very nice. Study the pictures.

Mechanical

Mechanically it’s in solid shape. It starts right up every time. There's no warning lights on the dash. The transmission shifts through all gears and the engine pulls strong. No smoke from the tail pipe. I'd trust driving this car anywhere. It really runs good. It has a new alternator and battery.

I'll Probably recall a few things so be sure check the bottom of the listing for updates!!!!

As you can see I have 100% positive feedback. I have never wronged any one on eBay before. If you win the car and find at the time of pickup that any thing listed in this auction is untrue I WILL NOT HOLD YOU OBLIGATED TO PURCHASE. BID WITH CONFIDENCE!!! I would prefer the car to be picked up within 7 days of auction close. If you would need any more time than that I would have to require a $500 deposit through paypal.

The auction ends Monday April 7th at 9:00 pm central time. So don't forget to bid!!

Sweden's Prince Carl Philip to race for Volvo in STCC

Tue, 04 Dec 2012

Prince Carl Philip Bernadotte has it good. He is a member of the Swedish Royal Family, he dates a model and he has been voted by Forbes as one of the "20 Hottest Young Royals." If that were not enough, he is a fairly successful racecar driver. The latter has earned him a spot on the Volvo Polestar racing team for the Swedish Touring Car Championship. The prince will be piloting a race-spec S60 in the 2013 STCC campaign.
Starting in 2008, Prince Carl Philip began competing in the Porsche Carrera Cup, where he placed as high as 11th. In 2010, he finished first in the Porsche GT3 Endurance competition, and most recently, he placed fourth in the 2012 Swedish GT GTB.
As his motorsport career up to this point suggests, the prince is quite serious about racing and the STCC is the next step up. According to Prince Carl Philip, "There is no tougher championship in Sweden and at the same time as I have respect for it, it motivates me greatly." You can read more on Prince Carl Philip's upcoming campaign with Polestar in the press release below.

Watch this Volvo truck drive up a quarry road using hamster-powered steering

Fri, 13 Sep 2013

Volvo Trucks has been producing some of the most interesting and thrilling commercials around as of late, and this new one involves a live hamster. While you may wonder how could a hamster and a dump truck could be exciting, just know this ain't a Kia Soul commercial: the Swedish truck company enlists the help of a hamster named Charlie to steer an FMX construction truck up a winding road in Ourence, Spain. From the bottom of a quarry. We are not kidding you.
All we ask is that you watch the commercial below to see how it all goes down. If you like what you see, you can then check out a bonus 'behind the scenes' video and press release for details about how Volvo Trucks prepared for the stunt.

Watch this video, then buy this 1993 Volvo wagon

Mon, 12 May 2014

Do you want to be perceived as rich and cuddly? Of course you do. Then you need to buy this car.
We know it makes no sense, but that pretty much sums up our take on the video you'll see below, in which a man by the name of Christoffer Castor, from Scania County in Southern Sweden, attempts to convince any and all who watch to buy his car. The car in question is a 1993 Volvo 240 wagon, in red with a black fabric interior.
We have quite a bit of respect for the old boxy Volvo wagons here at Autoblog, and, despite the presence of some unsightly rust on the tailgate, would gladly bum about in this particular 240. We especially appreciate the five-speed manual gearbox and that it's from the car's final year in production.
