Volvo 240 Usados en Venta

My current vehicle is a white Volvo 240 station wagon. I have owned this vehicle for over five years and it was purchased from the original owner. Since having this car, I have experienced nothing but positive things and it's very reliable. For a car that is nearly 30 years old, I would say that it rates as an equal with current cars being made today. What I love most about my Volvo is how I never have to worry about it leaving me stranded. It runs like a tank and it is a very solid and well built vehicle. They don't call the Volvo 240 a brick for nothing. Even though 1989 Volvo does not offer the air bags that all current vehicles offer today, I still feel completely safe if I was to ever be in an accident. The air conditioning and heat both run like a top and all other instrument mechanisms work as well. Also, since owning the Volvo, I have had to put very little money into it to maintain it and it still runs unbelievably well. Another perk is with the advantage of having a wagon, I am able to transport and haul lots of items I would not normally be able to do with a sedan. If I had the choice to buy another used Volvo 240 today, I would do it in a heartbeat.

I loved the looks of this car. It was boxy, but in a cool, "retro" kind of way. I pictured myself driving it around and looking like a crunchy granola-type person, with my "No Farms No Food" sticker on the back, and some cool peace signs painted on it. I loved the European "chunkiness" of it, its solid feel, and even the poky way it drove. When it drove. I also loved that there were actually screws in the dashboard. You could take the thing apart with a screwdriver and change relays and stuff. Which you had to do pretty often. It would only run for 30 minutes before stopping, just wherever it decided to stop. It wouldn't shift into 3rd gear, either. But it sure looked nice.

This is the best, most functional car on the market. The standard Volvo 240 has ample space for five passengers. Some models have the available jump seats in the rear, behind the rear seat. The best part about this car is that the rear seat folds flat. Now this is not like the fold flat offered in cars where the seat is near flat, but it is flat. Real flat. This car is a truck from the Swedes. The seats are comfortable and plush for long distances. The controls are well laid out and easy to use. Downside is the aged drive train which uses more fuel than the average new car. Average fuel economy is about 17 miles per gallon.
