Mileage: 140k Engine Mileage: 100k I bought this car with a bad engine and did the RN swap because I planned to do a k24, injectors, a tune and to use the car for a winter daily. Our timeline didn't work out and we didn't get the car done until now so I rather just sell it and free up the cash since winter is coming to an end. I'm sure you guys are familiar with the swap and know what needs to be done. I'm not trying to pawn the car off as some super dooper rare swaped car but its undeniable that its convient to already have it done and its hard to find 98s that clean up this well. The car runs perfect and I honestly wish I needed a daily but I don't and storing a million cars in Boston sucks. The engine swap was done by a friend of mine who has done several of these swaps and specializes in Volvo. The engine is a B5234T3 on which the VVT and secondary air system were eliminated. The car runs like it did from the factory and every feature works. Its extremely reliable and noticeably faster then a stock R. Work performed by me (100 miles on swap): - New timing belt, tensioner, idler, and water pump - New Tstat - New Serp belt and tensioner - Cam and crank seals - New intake and exhaust gaskets - New cap, rotor, wires, and plugs - PS resevoir - Hoses - Fluid flush - Upper motor mounts - lower mileage 16T turbo - Full Detail - Painted front and rear bumpers Worked performed recently: - Genuine Driveshaft - Brakes (they look to have low mileage on them) - Tires (also look to be pretty new) What it needs: - Upper shock mounts - Windshield (12 inch crack on far right side of windshield. Not in line of site) - misc interior pieces The exterior has original paint minus the bumpers and is in great shape. The car is rust free with the exception of a small spot on the tailgate (stupid molding). The interior has no tears and the front seats are still firm with nice bolsters but could use some attention. It has heated seats, tracs, dolby pro logic, and every other option these cars came with. |

Next Volvo XC90 design teased
Thu, 29 Aug 2013When Volvo took the wraps off its Concept Coupe yesterday, the Swedish automaker said that while "the all-new XC90 is an entirely different type of car, you will recognize the connection instantly when it is revealed next year." We raised our eyebrows at this upon first read, but after seeing these photos, posted on Feber.se, Volvo certainly wasn't joking.
During a press conference where the Concept Coupe debuted, teaser images of the next XC90 were shown, and the connection between it and the conceptual two-door are obvious. The long, T-shaped lighting elements in the slim headlamps are certainly the most noticeable tie between the two vehicles, but the angular lower fascia openings seen here can also be found quite prominently on the Concept Coupe.
Feber.se also has a few images showing the new taillamp and interior designs of the XC90, as well. And not surprisingly, those two facets of the new crossover's DNA are also surprisingly close to the elements found on the Concept Coupe. It's interesting to see how the concept's C-shaped taillamps have been massaged for the more upright design of the XC90's rump, and inside the cabin, it appears Volvo is serious about this vertically oriented infotainment display.
Stolen first production Volvo P1800 recovered
Wed, 04 Sep 2013Late last month, we told you about a 1961 Volvo P1800 that had been stolen in Sweden. The thought of losing a classic coupe to an unscrupulous thief is troubling enough, but this wasn't just any P1800 - it was the very first production example minted, and the restored red-over-white two-door was owned by the vice president of the Swedish P1800 Club to boot. Chassis Number Two was pilfered from a Stockholm lockup on either August 21 or 22, and the theft triggered an international hunt of sorts.
Fortunately, that hunt has come to a (mostly) happy ending. According to Larmtjänst AB, a non-profit organization dedicated to fighting vehicle crime in Sweden, the car was spotted by someone who had read about the missing classic. The P1800 was recovered in Hägerstensvägen, a municipality of Stockholm, after being found abandoned on the road covered with a tarp. The owner is reportedly very relieved that his Volvo is mostly intact, marred only by a broken ignition and a dirty interior.
Volvo Polestar celebrates STCC title with Black R edition S60, V60 and XC60
Sat, 21 Dec 2013The relationship between Volvo and Polestar was forged - and forges deeper still - on the racetrack, where the latter fields the former's tin-top entries in the STCC, WTCC and V8 Supercars. And based on their success together in touring-car racing, Volvo has had Polestar amp up a number of its production road cars. What we have here is the latest.
This year Volvo and Polestar dominated the Scandinavian Touring Car Championship, taking both the drivers' and manufacturers' titles. So to celebrate, Polestar has rolled out a new Black R package for the S60 sedan, V60 wagon and XC60 crossover.
The package includes an upgrade to 329 horsepower for the T6 engine and to 230 hp for the D5, and further enhances with special wheels, a dropped suspension, special sport seats and more. Unfortunately the package is only being offered in Sweden, but you can scope out the details in the press release below and the photos in the gallery above.
