Used Volvo Cars for Sale near North Vancouver, BC

A Volvo 240 Wagon is one of those cars that defies logic. A slow, boxy, minimalist station wagon, which changed very little over its 18 year production run should not inspire great enthusiasm. Oddly enough though, it does! The design is timeless. It is large and spacious, with compact dimensions. It is comfortable and solid, with great visibility and a tight turning radius. It is very utilitarian, yet feels quite luxurious. I grew very attached to my daily driver 245, and considered myself very fortunate to have owned such a great car!

This is a true classic. A model of thoughtful and thorough design and execution. And remarkably driveable, 28 years after it ceased its long production run.

Still one of the safest cars on the road. No matter how hard you push the car it keeps on going. Soon to be a sleeper.. Watch out acceleration is pretty good off the line up till 45 then bogs down to family wagon. Brakes on a dime. Very minor repairs but the basics.

I have owned 5 240's, would still have them but lost 2 to accidents that were not my fault, but they saved me from injury.. Since the 240 was made for so many year it's easy to get used junk yard parts and after market parts at whole auto parts stores. With any care they will run 500,000 miles and the body is not prone to rust in warmer climates.

It is an excellent world car - I like it.
