1987 Volvo 244

VOLVO
Eskilstuna

Basic information and History

Swedish classic, 1987 Volvo 244 with well documented history and in very good used condition. The current owner's grandfather was employed at Volvo and had this vehicle as a company car until retirement. The current owner is thus the second owner of the vehicle since 1987. The car has always been serviced at a Volvo workshop and should be seen as a very well-maintained example with the correct ownership history for those looking for a classic. The car has travelled 233,054 km and can be guaranteed.

  • Volvo 244 in very good used condition
  • Complete service history
  • Only two owners from the same family since new!

Equipped with a 2.3-liter straight four of approx. 115hp/185nm mated to a 5-speed manual gearbox and rear-wheel drive.

Equipment and Options

Equipped with, among other things, a 5-speed gearbox, cassette player and petrol heater. The latter, however, is out of order.

Condition

The car comes in very good used condition and has been well taken care of over the years and miles as a company car. The general condition is described by the current owner as unremarkable on the last inspection, but with the remark that there is rust on, among other things, screens and under the left front splash guard. A parking damage on the right rear door has been repaired. It is visible in the sheet metal, but the paintwork that has been carried out is well done. There is otherwise normal wear on the bodywork. Routing strips and other strips are in normal condition considering the mileage. Lantern glass and glass panes are judged to be in good condition. The rims have normal wear and are missing the center cover on two of the rims. The tires mounted on the rims are of an older type and should be replaced.

The general condition of the interior is described as very well preserved original condition. The charming brown interior has some notes, including slight wear on the driver's seat side support and a small hole on the seat surface. Interior carpets are in good condition. Door sides have normal wear but have held up well over the years. Minor damage to the plastic on the passenger door door panel. The inner ceiling is in good condition. The brake light in the rear window is slightly crooked and the interior lighting is slightly loose. Steering wheel, buttons and controls are in good condition. All functions in the passenger compartment work as they should, in addition to the previously mentioned petrol heater.

Engine is described as being in top condition. Gearbox and drivetrain as well. During the last inspection, there were no complaints about the mechanics, but the brakes need to be exercised and lubricated.

Feel free to look through our photos to form your own opinion of the condition. Questions can be asked in the question field and answered by the owner himself.

Service history

The car comes with a fully stamped service history and all services have been carried out at authorized Volvo workshops. Warranty certificates from when the car was new are also available. Last inspection was carried out in 2022.
