Used Volvo 240 for Sale

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.

I purchased a used Volvo 240DL from a dealer in Venice, Ca. This car was to provide transportation for my new family. The model is unaffectionately referred to as a refrigerator on wheels, alluding to it's rectangular shape. This particular model was beige, had a working stereo and 140,000 miles. The transmission was a four speed. The car drove very well. The car was very safe. Even given its age, our 4 cylinder model still got around 20MPG average (city and highway). The comfort and accessories were nothing to write home about, but the seat belts worked, and despite a couple of cracks the dash still held together well.

I love my Volvo. It is extremely reliable. The car is almost 30 years old and still runs nearly perfectly. There is little to no sun damage of the paint. The leather interior has held up very nicely. There are no tears and there is no discoloration at all. All of the electronics still work including the stock audio system wiring and electric windows. There's a ton of space in the station wagon model that I own. I recently moved and was able to fit all of my possessions in the car. The car has a very nice ride for such an older vehicle as well. My Volvo gets about 25 miles to the gallon which I think is respectable for such an old car.
