1985 Volvo 240 Wagon
Let me paint a picture for you. You're motoring along a moonlit road in the frozen north, screaming your heart out to Wham with your best girl. Not a care in the world, everything's coming up aces. Then BAM! You broadside a moose at speed. The crafty bugger was waiting for you all along. He was watching you, following you, hunting you. He had your number.
In a Honda? Dead.
Toyota? Dead, closed casket funeral.
Ford? Chevy? Dodge? Dead, dead, dead.
Fiat? How is your car running? Also dead.So what's a poor guy to do? Buy the only mooseproof car I can currently think of, the illustrious man-beast of a motorcoach, the 1985 Volvo 245 Estate (read wagon for you plebes). Smash the bejesus out of that moose, pick up some pieces, and use the apparently atomic powered heater to heat up some nice crispy moose meat for you and your lady. Win-win!
Disclaimer - I have no idea how mooseproof this car actually is, but it's definitely more than 0% mooseproof.Think you can handle this elite automobile? I have my doubts, but I invite you to read on.
Few things are as reliable as a Volvo 240 B23 redblock engine. 31 years on and this car starts better than any I've ever owned. This engine will outlast the car. It will probably outlast the dirt that the car eventually crumbles into. Some future alien race will pick this 2.3L 4 cylinder from the ashes of humanity and it'll run their giant lawnmower or something. It. Will. Run. For. Ever.
And.
Ever.
The odometer reads 187934 as of 12:20PM today. The title agrees with this and boasts no irksome brands or issues. Its history is as clean as a whistle. I do, however, believe it is closer to 224,000 actual miles. I can explain this in further detail if you'd like. Only 6000 more miles to the moon! Only 1,276,000 more miles until you catch Alex Kayd's 240! For. Ever.
Keen observers have noticed the mystery button on the 4 speed manual shifter. What could it be? Smoke? Rockets? Overdrive? Only the brave will find out. I will say that it helps run at highway speeds quite comfortably and makes a glowing green "5" appear on the dash. Said observers will also have noticed the rather unique gauge array. From the left - Tachometer (not some mamby pamby gigantic clock), speedometer, temperature, fuel, clock (appropriately sized and placed), oil pressure, outside temperature. All analog, all functioning. Moving down the center stack you'll see factory air conditioning with a very confusing dial and a low mount factory AM/FM cassette. Yep, both functioning as well. Bathe yourself in luxury. Also, that quip about the atomic heater above? Pretty accurate. This thing will cook you.
While we're on the interior might as well round out the options. Windows are crank, locks are power, sunroof only exists if you have too much liquor and a sawzall. I haven't had that combo yet so the roof remains intact. Fabric isn't perfect but isn't bad. Folding rear seat, um...folds. The dash has many colored lights, most of which are rarely or never seen. There is a light for a brake failure. The brake system in this car is so good that even when it fails, it still stops very well, so Volvo had to add a light to tell you to fix it. There's a light to tell you when a lightbulb is burnt out. What happens when that light burns out you ask? No one knows, it's never happened. It has a light that reads ? sond. Is that a lambda?! YES. THAT'S A LAMBDA.
Outside the passenger side looks pretty dang good! Front and rear are also solid! Driver side is the side that the driver gets in on! Bumps and bruises but no big hits, dents, broken bits, etc. Everything opens and closes without guff. The car is also very educational, showing you in a few places how clear coat reacts to the Texas sun and how the redox reaction of iron and oxygen works in high relative humidity! Nothing terminal, but that redox reaction is certainly present in a few places. (If you're furiously googling, I'm referring to rust. Not a ton, but some). She's a driver and a bit of a looker, but closer to a 5 than a 10.
Up to date on maintenance, tires are good for a while, and I have a set of studded tires for the rear that I can confirm will get you to Bogus and back intact. Probably Everest if you want, but I haven't had time to make it that far. There's a 2" hitch hiding under the rear bumper too if you feel like towing anything. I haven't tried, but I'm pretty sure this can pull the space shuttle like that Toyota commercial. Probably two space shuttles because Volvo. Rack is not included, but play your cards right and I may throw in the bluetooth cassette that currently resides in the deck.
This car believes in wabi sabi. It sacrifices pieces of itself to remain humble and imperfect in its perfection. It has flaws on purpose. They are liveable, they are bearable, they make it better. I can give you an overly detailed list if you really want it.
Why am I selling? Simple, I need something that drives all 4 wheels. Probably a 4Runner or Land Cruiser. Not nearly as reliable as this monster, but I must sacrifice my manliness for 4WD.
Think you can handle it? Please send me a resume of your burliest accomplishments. Don't forget the special skills section. Also include pictures for proof of said accomplishments. If you send me a selfie, so help me God I will ram your house down with this car. Smoke signal correspondence is acceptable. Questions will be answered with an eye roll.
The latest valuation I've done puts this car at a cool $1.35B. That number goes up by a couple hundred grand a minute. However, for a worthy owner, money is no object, so I will bequeath the car to the right successor for an administration fee of $2500. WATCH OUT FOR MOOSES!

Ein neuer C70I, mit Zulassung 2000 und 102km auf dem Tacho.
Wow, holy macaroni! 😰 Steht da was von der Hintergrundgeschichte? Bin mobil unterwegs, da liest sich sowas schlecht. Aber großartige Bilder!

Wäre echt spannend wieso er nicht gefahren wurde. 😮
Steht doch im Text. Das Auto haben sie von einem Sammler gekauft. Niederländische Auslieferung. Die Rückbank und die Rückleuchten sind noch in Folie verpackt.
Muss gestehen, war zu faul, dass ich das holländische in den Translator haue! :P
Danke!

Lesen klappt auch so, mit genug Phantasie 😉
Na ja, das ist doch etwas spärliche Info. Was ist das für ein Sammler? War das sein einziger Volvo? Was ist passiert, und warum überhaupt? 😁

Ich schreib mal eine Mail an die CIA, die sollten das doch wissen 😛
Boah ist der schön!! Würde ich glatt als 3. Wagen nehmen ... aber dafür zu teuer 😉
45t€? 😰😰😰
aber schon schön.......alter schwede....
Besonders traurig, wenn man bedenkt, dass C70 der ersten Generation trotz ihres ikonischen Designs und guter Zuverlässigkeit einfach hammerbillig sind. Würde ich in Deutschland wohnen mit meinem Einkommen, hätte ich mir schon längst ein goldenes 163 PS Coupé zugelegt...

Was mich wundert ist, dass der die Klarglasscheinwerfer und die (bei uns) späteren "Ami" Blinker hat. Wer rüstet denn ein Sammlerstück um? Oder es ist ein Ami und die hatten schon eher Klarglas?
Mit den Preisen hast du recht Oli, aber meiner bleibt ohnehin. Will keinen anderen. 🙂
Auch noch interessant, hat zwar seit 16 Jahren keinen Service bekommen, aber sieht echt gut aus.

Danke für den Link. Die Preise für "normale" gebrauchte C70 I sind ja OK. Aber der neuwertige C70 I von 2000 mit 45k€ ist recht happig.
Ach du wohnst in Norwegen, stimmt's? Na ja, mit den Gehältern dort kannst du dir hier in D einen beliebigen C70 vergolden lassen 😁
