Hi all,

Anyone in the Toronto area have need for an old 240 that just won't
quit? This is a rare 4-door 240 Turbo with automatic transmission and
about 320K km. The car needs a new alternator but otherwise runs fine.
It's been sitting for a while but starts right up with a boost.
Recently hand repainted matte black...

What can I tell you? I love her but I have street parking and nowhere
to park her. It seems a shame to drive a functioning car to the dump
but that's what I'm starting to realise is my final option. She has a
May '08 sticker and by the end of this month she has to be out of the
lot where I've been storing her.

Anyone interested?
Email me at b o r i s AT s t e f a n o v i c DOT c a for more details.

I'll be sorry to see her go but would rather not have her crushed.

thanks,
Boris

Post it on craigslist, it'll probably be gone tomorrow, ask a hundred
bucks for it and you'll probably have better luck than giving it away
for free, for whatever reason I find that to be true. Could post it on
turbobricks as well but CL has always worked well for me.

Thanks James, that's my next stop. I thought I'd give the crowd here
first crack at it since she has a few obsolete parts that aren't even
in the Volvo parts catalogue anymore. I'll go over tonight and take a
few pictures for CL.

Cheers,
B

I had the same problem with my 86 240 stick but I donated to he church and
someone is happy.
