1998 Volvo S90 Sedan, 4-door, 2.9l 6 Cyl, Automatic, Silver (960) Nice! on 2040-cars

Year:1998 Mileage:166530
Location:

Frazeysburg, Ohio, United States

Frazeysburg, Ohio, United States

Up for bidding is my 1998 Volvo S90 sedan in silver. Arguably one of the best Volvo models ever made, this was the last model year for this series.

This one’s clock is at just under 167k original, actual miles. With the 2.9L bulletproof straight 6 engine, it’s barely broken in! The previous owner's parents bought it certified pre-owned from MAG Volvo in Dublin, Ohio, then later passed it on to him and his wife who recently downgraded to a minivan due to kids. That makes it over a decade of staying within one family.

Options on this vehicle: premium sound system (AM/FM/CD/Cassette), full gray leather interior, power sunroof, front + side airbags, power windows/seats/locks/mirrors, cruise, alloy wheels, ABS, winter and sport transmission modes, and much, much more.

Clean, above average condition overall- body and undercarriage is clean and the original paint shines up nice. Very small rust spot above rear passenger wheel, other than that is rust free! Leather interior is in good shape.

Cruise, sunroof, power windows, lights, switches, etc. all work perfect. Runs great, rides smooth and drives straight down the road, exhaust is quiet, no leaks or weird noises. Automatic transmission shifts smoothly. No warning lights on! A/C blows ice cold- summer is around the corner!  Two things that aren't working: heated seats and outdoor temperature display (shows -188°.) Keep in mind this is a used car and has a scratch or ding here and there which you can see in the pictures- having said that, this car is mechanically and cosmetically in nice shape for its age!

New tires and newer battery are installed. New lower ball joints and alignment. Oil freshly changed with Valvoline Maxlife synthetic blend 10w30. Timing belt and water pump were done at 140k. Brakes have plenty of meat left on them and stop the car well. Suspension handles fantastic, especially on curvy roads with the rear wheel drive. I have been driving this car regularly for the past few weeks just to make sure there is nothing else that needs attention, and she has performed great! Original manuals, radio code and both sets of keys included- good to go for its new driver!

I have attached 46 pictures in an imgur album. If you would like a picture of something more up close, feel free to ask and I’ll take it for you. Pictures here: http://imgur.com/a/RBdKq

This vehicle is located in Central Ohio just east of Columbus. If you’d like to come take a look at it or bring your mechanic before bidding, please feel free to give me a call! My # is 7 four zero - 6 one zero - zero zero 2 three. Please complete all inspections BEFORE bidding, as if you are the winning bidder, you’ve bought the car. Thanks!

If you are the winning bidder, congratulations, this Volvo is yours! Please send a $250 nonrefundable deposit via PayPal within 48 hours, with the remainder due via cash or direct bank wire transfer within 14 days. Can arrange to ship or pick you up at CMH airport if needed. I may also be able to deliver depending on the circumstances. I am a private owner and not a dealer like many sellers here on eBay, so there will be no surprise doc fees.

Thanks for looking!

 

ATTENTION BIDDERS WITH LESS THAN 5 FEEDBACK: Please give me a call before putting in a bid on the car so that I know you are serious.  If you fail to do this I will unfortunately have to cancel your bid. I appreciate everyone’s understanding. Thank you!

Current Volvo XC90 to live on in China?

Fri, 28 Mar 2014

The current, long-serving Volvo XC90 might not be going away as soon as we thought - at least not in China. According to word from CarNewsChina, the crossover's production will be moved to Daqing, China, in December and from that point on, be built at Geely's factory. The only available engine will be a 2.5-liter turbocharged five-cylinder.
According to the report, the present XC90 and the imminent next-generation model will both be sold in the market, but the Chinese-made vehicle will be positioned as a cheaper alternative. Geely will also develop a crossover of its own from the platform that should be ready in late 2015.
Volvo plans to launch the new XC90 later this year to replace the aging model, which has been on the market for over a decade. It will ride on the company's new Scaleable Product Architecture platform and will be powered by the automaker's new Drive-E four-cylinder engine family. Hybrid versions will also be available.

Volvo denies boss Jacoby is taking a run at Opel CEO post

Tue, 07 Aug 2012

It seems that every news report that involves the name "Opel" is eventually followed by a report that says, "Uh, never mind." Executives fill positions, then they're gone, or they're supposed to fill positions but duck out before doing so, five-year product offensives turn into grabbing for life preservers, and turnaround plans are followed by... new turnaround plans. With the recent departure of Opel CEO Karl-Friedrich Stracke, Swedish newspaper Dagens Industri reported that Volvo CEO Stefan Jacoby topped the list of candidates to sit in Opel's very hot seat.
Volvo spokesman Stefan Elfstrom has piped up to say "Mr. Jacoby is fully occupied with running Volvo and has no plan for leaving his present job." Stranger things have happened, though, and who knows what the truth is, but we have to admit we'd be surprised if Jacoby jumped off the Volvo express - recently given an $11-billion boost by parent company Geely - to take his chances in the Opel maelstrom.
So Opel's search for a CEO continues. At least we have the Adam to look forward to.

Volvo confirms unnamed US model reveal for NY show

Thu, 21 Mar 2013

Tucked into the press release for the "display debut" of the Volvo V60 Plug-In Hybrid at the New York Auto Show, Volvo snuck in a single line announcing that it will also be introducing a new model for the North American market. As much as we'd love to see the svelte V40 on American roads, we're pretty sure the automaker is looking to fill its US station wagon void with the V60.
The 2014 Volvo V60 is part of a comprehensive lineup update that was unveiled earlier this month in Geneva, and it would give Volvo dealers a conventional wagon (not including the XC70) for the first time since the V70 and V50 were killed off. We'll still be keeping our fingers crossed for the stylish V40 hatchback or the fuel-efficient V60 diesel hybrid, but we have to wait until next week to find out for sure.
