Used Volvo 240 for Sale near Chattanooga, TN

My dark grey 1992 Volvo 240 Wagon was superior in every respect. I bought it new and kept it 18+ years (my daughter drove it for a while, then I took it back). Had hardly a minute's trouble with it. Only routine maintenance and minor repairs. Likely the best engine ever built by Volvo (or anyone else) for durability. Averaged 24 mpg/28 on the road. Never burned or leaked oil. The car was exceptionally reliable. It was truly "the brick" workhorse it was reputed to be. The design had both class and simplicity. It hugged the road and turned on a dime. Perfectly balanced, It was doubtless the safest car of its time, perhaps still is. Through many years our family owned a 122s (Amazon), a 144, four 240 sedans, a 740 wagon and 940 sedan, and a 960 wagon. The best of them all was the 1992 240 wagon. Had it not gotten rusty around the edges from too much salt on the roads, I would still be driving it. I replaced it with a XC70 for all-wheel drive in the mountains. And I'm looking now to purchase another '92 240 wagon for old (and new) times sake. They can drive it from the church to the cemetery with me in it, roses on top!

I love everything about this car - mileage, styling, safety, build quality, reliability. Maintenance is very affordable and replacement parts are plentiful. It's surprisingly fun to drive, even though it's slow, considering that the large motor has locomotive torque. All in all, a dream of a car!

This car is great all around. It is reliable and durable, lasting many years and driving many more miles. The interior is very comfortable with lots of headroom and legroom. Also, additional comfort includes heated seats in the winter and air conditioning in the summer.

A wonderful car that never disapoints. Once you have driven a 240/245 you can´t imagine ever wanting anything else. Its cheap to own and reliable to drive. It might not be a car with the highest number of hp but it´s got enough.

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!
