Wanted: A Black 1993 240 sedan, with low miles. 200 1993

I am specifically looking for a black 1993 240 with reasonable miles, and a five speed. I realize that I am narrowing my search. I am willing to give on the five speed because I realize the chances are slim of finding a 1993 with a five speed. I think that the black 240's look so cool, what a class ride. Anyway, if anyone runs across a choice black 240 please e-mail me @ jpitroff@cinci.rr.com I would really like to find one outside the snow belt, but I know, I know I am pushing my luck.I live in Cincinnati,Ohio but I am obviously willing to travel if I have to.

Two Black 1993 240s on Autotrader RIGHT NOW under $5000. I bought one for $1900 off a S. Florida lot (saw it in Autotrader) in August. I see black '93s there all the time.

Check www.theautowerkes.com
He has a few on his lot, and a few on the site are already sold, but he gets every decent one he can find. Even has a 5-spd '93 wagon right now.
Other places to try, both of which will find a car for you, are Eurocars Plus (where I used to work) 860-444-2001 or www.eurocarsplus.com, and European Auto, 860-739-4894 (no web site). They both still sell and service the RWD cars. Even in the rust belt, the later 240's don't show much evidence of rust problems yet. The last of them seem to be just about the best of them.

Good luck in your search.

Check www.edgecombs.com/ in Charlottesville, VA. He always has nice Volvos, they are popular cars in that area of Virginia. He has pics online of his inventory....They serviced mine when I was in the area awhile back...

Hooray for black cars. If you can keep one clean (like washing your car?) then it sure is a nice color. I have one. I wash it all the time. I love it.

I think you're doing the right thing by allowing yourself an automatic, and allowing yourself REASONABLE miles.

Your chances of finding a car like that are much better than saying "low miles" or "only 5-speed", or both.

You WILL probably find a car you're very very happy with, given the ability to be slightly flexible with your wish list. That is key to finding the used car you want.

Also, I say that is an awesome choice. If you're willing to accept, say, a 1992, it is VIRTUALLY the same car, save for R134 air conditioning (which might have already been converted to R134 by this time) and the round-toothed timing belt. Also a slightly different shifter bezel inside the car. Otherwise it is very similar, and there are some stunning examples of 92s out there as well. And they also have ABS brakes. Plus 92s had the black grille (mostly) and black trim, which looks really sharp. And the GL was available in 92, which made it more likely to find one with a sunroof and leather.

Just a couple of options. I stil think you'll come across a 93 if you are patient. Try Ebay too... you never know.

Eric,
I check it daily, but you can't beleive how many people put their car in autotrader etc. and don't even say what color it is!!! Or how many miles!!! or give an e-mail address so that you don't have to make a long distance call for nothing.I have driven these cars for 25 years, and I am not ready for a different brand, or a front wheel drive volvo.I also keep an eye on e-bay.

Thank You,

Jeff
