Oil change

This week I have ordered a brand new wheel bearing for the left front and I will have it installed along with 1 more oil change.

The previous owner of this car was an older woman with a leg disability, the car was equipped with hand controls.
The only visible things from the hand control installation is the old ball that was on the steering wheel and the plastic trim panel was slightly modified on the drivers side.
No wiring was ever touched everything is OE and works perfect. The engine has plenty of power no noises, no knocks, just buttery smooth operation. Transmission shifts flawlessly no knocks, hesitation, slow responses, nothing. It is perfect.
A/C works beautifully. I recently took a trip to Florida and the car performed perfect, A/C was so cold I had to keep it on the lowest fan setting because it was near freezing inside the cabin with ambient outside temperature showing in the 80's.
Heat works very well as well, to the point where the car becomes a sauna. By the end of the week once the wheel bearing is changed the car will need absolutely nothing. All systems operate as they should, it drives straight, stops straight, doesn't have any noises inside the cabin or outside.

The car is optioned in a rare fashion. It has no moonroof, which is nice since a lot of Volvos have sunroof drain issues and the water ends up collecting in the front foot wells eventually destroying the yaw sensors underneath the seat. It has the rare sport split interior, which I prefer to the leather option. If it were only manual it would be perfect. It has a few scratches on the rear bumper, the left rear wheel arch has a couple scratches since someone scraped up against it (no rust, very minor barely visible). The only aftermarket things that this car has is a set of lamin-x yellow fog film and 30% tint all around including a 6 inch strip on the front windshield. The car is legal in Florida with the current tint setup. Tires were put on by the previous owner just before winter and have about 15k miles on them, all matching with tread in the 70-80% range all around, no previous punctures. I have pictures that show the paint depth all around the car with the exception of the hood which is aluminum and my paint meter does not read aluminum. All readings are within spec. Please keep in mind this is my daily driver and mileage will slightly go up this week. I am no stranger to Volvos, I have owned 6, my family has owned close to 20 over the years, from 740s, 760s, 940s, 850s, v70s, xc70s, xc90s, you name it we probably had it. I am selling this car because I want to fund my summer project. I am building a BMW E39 Wagon with an M5 swap.

Volvo S60 Polestar concept plays in the snow with Mercedes C63 AMG

Thu, 24 Jan 2013

Chris Harris took to a snowy stretch of tarmac to get a fingertips-on-the-wheel feel of the Volvo S60 Polestar concept. Harris says the turbocharged sedan with 508 horsepower and 424 pound-feet of torque - and a manual transmission - is "a study to see if Volvo can get back into the fast-car market." The Polestar S60 concept, one of which was already purchased for $300,000 by a private buyer, is still making the publicity rounds because even Volvo's Chinese owners realize that, as Harris says, "Volvo sold more cars because it made fast cars" like the old 850 T5 Wagon that stormed the British Touring Car Championship in the 1990s.
For reference, Harris compares the blue wonder to the Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG and its 487 hp and 442 lb-ft. The question is, were Volvo to get the price of a production version of the S60 Polestar to climb way down from its 200,000-pound sticker, could it be worthy competition to the established giants?
You can watch Harris divine the answer via a lot of drifting through the snow and a drag race in the video below.

Subprime financing on the rise in new car sales, leasing too

Fri, 07 Dec 2012

We all remember the financial crisis that began several years back. At its core was a splurge of subprime lending for housing loans. The housing bubble burst, triggering a collapse of the mortgage-backed securities market. Apparently, those types of loans still exist in the automotive industry, and the market share for these types of "nonprime, subprime, and deep subprime," loans has grown 13.6 percent compared to the third quarter a year ago.
According to an Automotive News report, high-risk lending expanded to 24.8 percent of total loans in Q3, up from 21.9 percent for this time last year. As this level increased, average credit scores of borrowers dropped to 755, down from 763 a year ago. In that time, the average financing amount increased $90 per vehicle, to $25,963.
At 818, Volvo maintains the highest per-owner credit score, while Mitsubishi has the lowest, at 694. The highest rate of borrowers was at Toyota, with 14 percent of the market, followed by Ford with 13.1 percent and Chevrolet at 11.1.

These cars are headed to the Great Crusher In The Sky

Fri, 24 Aug 2012

It happens every year. We bid adieu to some cars and trucks that will be missed, and say good riddance to others wondering how they stayed around so long. Whether they're being killed off for slow sales or due to a new product coming along to replace them, the list of vehicles being discontinued after 2012 is surprisingly long and diverse.
CNN Money has compiled a list of departing vehicles, to which we've added a few more of our own. In the slow sales column, cars like the Lexus HS 250h, Mercedes-Benz R-Class and the full Maybach lineup appear, while the Ford Escape Hybrid, Mazda CX-7 and Hyundai Veracruz are all having their gaps filled with more modern and more fuel-efficient alternatives. Obvious exceptions to the rule include models that still sell in decent numbers like the Jeep Liberty and the Chrysler Town & Country (which will eventually be replaced by a crossover-like vehicle).
Check out our gallery of discontinued cars above, then scroll down for more information.
