Description
It had not been washed at the time of the inspection, but the fine authentic original condition is still obvious. When something needed to be repaired, it was completed. Everything appears to be in working order. The sound system is newer, but the speakers are original Volvo. Towbar, auxiliary light, engine heater, and compartment switch are all included. Winter studded wheels and summer tires with metal rims are included. Original rubber protecting mats. There is an instruction book, a service book, and several receipts and inspection reports included.
Technical data
Condition
-
Mechanical condition
The test drive was great, with only a small jerk when the engine was cold, but otherwise a smooth and uncomplicated ride. Underneath was not thoroughly inspected, but it was apparently constantly protected from corrosion. Front shock absorbers and wheel bearings are relatively new, as is the silencer.
-
Interior condition
A pleasant interior in well-kept and complete condition with a little patina. Would be nicer with a valet.
-
Exterior condition
It had not been washed at the time of inspection, but the paintwork appeared to be original. There are some stone shards and scratches, but there are no serious damaged. The rubber details are OK, however they have lost a little sheen here and there. wheels are in good shape but not in perfect condition, but the studded tires are great. A wash and polish would be recommended.

General condition
When a Volvo has had a few and enthusiastic owners, it looks like this. Of course some cleaning is required but your buying a cult car these days.

Facts about the model
Under åren gjordes en mängd varianter och uppdateringar. När den nya modellen 740 kom 1984, trodde många kanske att den "gamle" modellen 240 hade gjort sitt men Volvo la in en växel till och fortsatte att utveckla även 240:an.
Under åren tillkom olika motorer, bensin, diesel och Turbo laddade. Den gjordes i två, fyra, och femdörrars karosser. Det blev olika utrustningsvarianter med sport och flärd men genuinast är kanske ändå DL/GL modellerna, en del av det svenska folkhemmet.
Från början var GL-modellen lite mer påkostad men degraderades med tiden till instegsmodellen. Från 1981 fick den B23A-motorn.
Det fanns hetare bilar på marknaden men få kunde mäta sig med kombinationen enkelhet, slitstyrka, kvalitet och säkerhet såsom Volvo 240, en jordnära familjebil.
Till årsmodell 1988, blev så GL-varianten instegsmodell och nu med katalysator. Totalt tillverkades över 2,8 miljoner vagnar av modell 240 och vi kan fortfarande, snart 30 år sedan modellen lades ner, dagligen se dem i trafiken. Det är stort...
