1990 Vovlo 240 Wagon in Excellent Condition
- SOLD - This beautiful Volvo 240 Wagon has been well loved throughout it's whole life and is ready for a new home. It was originally owned by one family in Arroyo Grande, California for for over 30 years. They had it serviced at least twice a year since 1990, including oil changes and any mechanical work that it ever needed. It comes with a stack of maintenance records to document it's history. It's in excellent condition and has no leaks or significant rust.
In the 90s, the original owner added a tow hitch and used it to tow his 14' sail boat. Over the past 8 years, this car has only driven about 15,000 miles total and mostly rested under an awning. In August, I drove it to Portland, OR from Arroyo Grande and it had no problems aside from a minor coolant leak that has since been fixed. It now has a new cooling system installed, including a new Volvo water pump, a Nissens radiator, and new hoses.
The car is in excellent condition. The paint looks good. The lights, speakers, power windows and locks work. The engine sounds great. It drives straight, feels smooth, accelerates and stops well, and is VERY safe and reliable.
I will consider any reasonable offers. Hoping to sell to someone who will continue to take great care of this special car! I can also refer you to my mechanic for maintenance. He has specialized in Volvo 240s for over 23 years!
