Instrument Cluster problems as most Volvos of this vintage experience. You can get one here on Ebay for $199.99. Gas, temperature and clock work fine, odometer stopped at 216k or so and speedometer doesn't function either.

Blower motor blows fine on 1 speed and heat will roast you. Fan on high speed is noisy, but, like I said, on low speed runs great and will toast you good! Windshield wipers are fine and wiper fluid works great, too.

Passenger side windows go up and down nicely. Drivers windows are locked in the up position; too cold for me to take doors apart to see what's wrong.

Motor purrs like your GrandMom's "Mixmaster," Transmission shifts nicely hot or cold.

Body and interior are noteworthy; no tears in interior, perfect headliner too. Rubber trim still where it should be on doors (sometimes it shrinks on this Volvo series). Non smoker's vehicle. No kids, or pets either.

Body is in very good shape, some paint nicks over the years but no rust holes or big spots (little ones either, that I can find.) The drivers rear door handle has been removed but the door still opens correctly and safely from the inside. I took the car to a body shop and was told that's an easy fix. I don't believe in putting money into used cars to sell them, however. If the car is safe, which this one is, I present it as is. Again, all safety features work and the motor and tranny are solid. No oil burning that I can detect. A friendly neighbor borrowed a hubcap from me; I suppose he'll (or she) will give it back. Tires are good on this doll, also.

All turn signals and lighting work safely and nicely. You could drive this one from Miami to Seattle if you wanted to, in my humble estimation. That statement DOES NOT IMPLY A WARRANTEE OF ANY SORT.

I sold this car to my friend's Mom in early 2006 after I had used it for a couple of years. She's 83 now and no longer driving, and asked me if I would buy it back. I did. It passed Indiana emissions, and I custom plated it. I AM A HUGE GUY, and its a bit restrictive for me to drive daily, now, so, all I am attempting to do is recoup what I gave her, and my license and title transfer fees. Its that simple.

New ebay'ers are dealt with accordingly; this is not lets make a deal and you don't win a prize for being highest bidder. You "earn" the right to pay me and take possession of this vehicle. I keep my listings clear for honest, experienced buyers who don't want prices driven up by someone new and broke, looking for thrills.

Volvo studying test of electric roads in Sweden

Tue, 27 May 2014

Volvo already announced the results of a study of wireless charging using a stationary C30, and now it's embarking on a more ambitious study of wireless charging involving moving city buses. Next year, in conjunction with the Swedish Transport Association, Volvo will build a section of electric road up to 500 meters long that would use inductive charging to refill the batteries while the bus drives over it.
Right now, the company's Hyper Bus diesel hybrid has to stop to plug in and charge at the end of its route. The company is looking for a way to keep buses in service while being able to run on electric power for greater lengths of time. The new line used for the study will be called ElectriCity, and will come online in central Gothenburg sometime in 2015. There's a press release below with more information.

2015 Volvo Inscription models get classy with an upgraded leather interior

Thu, 17 Apr 2014

If Volvo's recent spate of cool-looking concepts is any indication, the Swedish brand has some great new styling on the way. But it takes time for new vehicles to come to market. In the meantime, Volvo is livening up some of its interiors with an updated Inscription Package on the 2015 XC60 (pictured above) and S80 debuting at the 2014 New York Auto Show.
The Inscription models see mostly interior improvements with Sovereign Hide leather covering the seats and more leather for the instrument panels, seatbacks, center armrests and embroidered headrests. Inlaid wood acts as decorative trim, and there are plush, new floor mats. Exterior changes are limited to the choice of colors, namely Crystal White Pearl, Electric Silver and - exclusively for the S80 - Ember Black. The XC60 Inscription comes with 20-inch, ten-spoke wheels, and the S80 receives 19-inch versions.
The package's changes are fairly small, but it adds a certain amount of opulence to the models until the new Volvos are ready. Scroll down to read the full details about them.

Future Polestar Volvo models could feature diesel, EV tech

Tue, 20 May 2014

Volvo's Polestar sub-brand has made the transition nicely from being the company's racing arm to building some seriously cool, Swedish cars. Now that it has a few models under its belt, it plans to grow larger and greener. The next-generation of Polestar-tuned vehicles are rumored to include high-performance hybrid and diesel powertrains.
While it still doesn't have the brand recognition of BMW M or Mercedes-Benz AMG, Polestar is on the growth path. It's representatives recently told Autoblog that its latest, tuned S60 and V60 models "mark the start of an extended production car model range." In addition to that expansion, Volvo has given its performance division a greater responsibility for engineering future vehicles, according to Autocar. It even helped develop the new Drive-E engine, which we quite liked when we took it for a spin in an S60.
Polestar's boss hinted at a hybrid model to Autocar, a move that seems obvious once you think about it. The Drive-E engine was designed from the beginning to accept hybrid layouts. The division's plan is to put and electric motor on the rear axle to both increase torque off the line and provide all-wheel drive. As Drive-E also offers diesel variants, that is in the cards as well for the future, but the company didn't go into much detail. Polestar appears to be the upcoming shooting star of the performance car world.
