Volvo 245 Classic #21, B230 — 1993

• Mechanical condition

  The car starts easily and shifts smoothly. The brakes are also in good condition. There are no vibrations or rattling, just a bit of squeaking from the brake pads (as is common with the 240). The timing belt was replaced at 12,147 miles on May 21, 2018. The service book is fully stamped, indicating regular servicing at the authorized dealership, Bilia.

• Interior condition

  Nice interior in light velour. No issues to mention, but it should be noted that the wood trim on the dashboard has been replaced with aftermarket versions that resemble the original ones, as the original ones were stolen at some point (see pictures). The door pockets in beige plastic are missing from the lower inside of the front doors.

• Exterior condition

  The body and paint are in excellent condition. No rust underneath the doors or rear hatch. Original paint above the side moldings and professionally applied paint below the moldings. Slight wear on the corners of the bumpers. Some stone chips on the front. Normal condition on the underside. Mud and snow (M+S) tires with 5-6 mm tread on the original rims.

• General condition

  A beautiful 245 from the final Classic series, and being from the last production week makes it extra appealing. The fact that it has only covered 12,600 miles is evident and noticeable. The documentation supports this as well. There are no significant issues. A reconditioning with polishing and paint treatment would further enhance the impression.

General information about the condition of the vehicles .

• At this auction, many vehicles have been included in car collections and have been stored (mothballed) for a long time. For this reason, they are described from a collector's perspective and may need technical reviews and maintenance service - oil, battery replacement, new tires, brake review, etc. - before they can be used. .
• During the auction days information about a vehicle may be updated up to the day before the auction ends. When you bid at the end of the auction period - and also if you have made an earlier bid - we therefore ask you to read the descriptions carefully, in case something has been changed due to new information.
