Vehicle description
This vehicle is being sold AS IS. If you are interested, I can schedule a time for you to look at the vehicle.
The Good:
Work that has been done to it in the past 3 years: Steering coupler replaced on July 2014 Repaired and spliced fuel return line July 2014 All four brake rotors were replaced in July 2014 3 brake calipers replaced July 2014 Inner - left tie rod end replaced, left outer tie rod end July 2014 New left rear tail light wiring Replaced alternator and mount December 2016 Replaced muffler, exhaust system, head pipe assembly, June 2015 Replaced air-flow sensor May 2016 Heated seats still work Interior is in good - not great - shape Has had regular oil changes and check-ups every 3000 miles Has passed NY state inspection for the year handles the snow extremely well, especially for a RWD
The Bad: Car does not start - but, it does crank which makes me think this is a fuel-pump issue, which is not an uncommon issue, but I"m not a mechanic. The car was driven perfectly fine for the past year with no problems. Has over 240,000 miles The air-conditioner does not work. This happens over time and I"ve seen it happen to multiple Volvo 240"s. The gas gauge does not work. Mechanic said this is most likely the sending unit within the gas tank - probably 300 to 500 dollars worth of work. I"ve seen a step-by-step for the 245 on Youtube, but beyond my expertise. Door speakers are a bit screwed up - they work, just need to be properly mounted. The original radio/tape deck was replaced with a CD player and AUX jack - I guess this could be good, but I"m usually a fan of the OEM parts. That being said, the AUX jack is great for playing podcasts/music off of the iPhone/iPod. Paint - its scratched, rusted, has weird spots, all the things that accrue over 25 years. Driver"s side seat needs new spring support Battery was replaced on 31Aug2014 - could use replacing again
The Ugly:
Rust! This car was driven in Buffalo, NY and Albany, NY. It snows a LOT and they use a LOT of salt - the body has significant rust, but I know it was washed frequently to inhibit the spreading of the rust. I"ve taken pictures of the rust spots.
