111k Miles.
I am the 2nd owner of this car and bought it in 2008 with about 65k miles on it from the dealer in NYC. I've taken care of it and improved it because I love to drive. I needed a wagon that had more space and I have a dog, so, I improved the handling and made it a really fun wagon. These engines are bullet proof and the turbo is a great feature in addition to the all wheel drive. It will go through any mountain of snow, sleet or rain... and driving in summer with the modified suspension is pretty great. I just bought an Audi S6 wagon and though I'd love to keep both, I can't, so I'm selling this with no reserve and whomever gets it...is going to get a great deal. There is some standard wear that I'll mention below as it is almost a 13 year old car, but it drives great and I've put a lot of money into it as you'll see below as well: - New dealer ordered/installed transmission approximately 20k miles ago (about $5,000 worth of work) - Newish control arms were also installed when the dealer put in the transmission - Brand new Transmission Control Module (TCM) installed and programmed LAST WEEK...which cost $1,200 (I felt it starting to go and didn't want to sell the wagon without this being done) - Full timing-belt kit & water pump installed at 105k miles - IPD (dealer in Portland) heavy duty front/rear sway bars (urethane bushings) - IPD 12mm front sway bar end links (stock is 10mm) - improves the front end strength - IPD heavy duty front upper strut mounts (the stock ones are thin and weak -- these are a great upgrade) - Ronal 18"x8" aluminum wheels (these are fantastic, strong wheels and the brand has been around forever) - Almost new General G-Max AS-03 245/45 ZR performance all-season tires (they have about 2,000 miles on them) - ** I also have the original Volvo stock wheels and tires that will come with the car - K&N air filter - Synthetic oil and filter changed every 3,500 miles - New front coil springs - Hepa interior air conditioning filter changed approximately 10k miles ago - Brand new rear tail gate struts installed 2-weeks ago (one of the was weak and the door was having trouble staying up, so I replaced both of them) - New front bumper, but there is a little scratch on the drivers side from someone that just scuffed it 2-3 weeks ago -- that really hurt when I saw it. It's a very small scuff on the inner edge, but still... - All leather interior seating is in great condition - CD changer stereo (The stereo sounds great...by the way) - 3rd row seating is built into these cars, but it's never been used - Original owners manuals in the grey, faux suede Volvo cover - 2 original keys and 1 remote door/alarm fob I have lots of receipts for the work above including much more minor work. I'm sure there are other parts that I've installed/replaced that I'm forgetting, but you can see 27 pics of the car at this photobucket link: s175.photobucket.com/user/rockgin/slideshow/2001%20Volvo%20V70XC Aspects of the car that are not perfect include: The sunroof has trouble sliding open because the inner frame that attaches the shade that you slide open/closed in the interior of the car is loose, but the sunroof opens upwards fine - I didn't feel like taking down the headliner to fix it...I rarely used it anyway. The stock car alarm seems to work, but sometimes a "check alarm sensor" message comes up on the dash (this wasn't a priority fix for me). The dash also flashes a tailgate open message at times too, but this is a sensor issue and the tailgate locks fine (the dealer wanted $250 just to diagnose the issue - another low priority fix). There are some minor little dings, but the black paint still shines great. The backseat passenger door inner panel is a little scatched up from my dog trying to jump out the window to get a squirrel years back. Note that the rear leather seats are in near perfect condition, since they are usually folded down. And regardless of my dog, I keep the car clean and vacuumed... The car looks great, runs great and handles better now than when it left the factory. As I said, I wish I could keep it, since I've put so much work into it, but I don't have the space to do so. If you're near NYC and would like to look at it this weekend, I'll be in town. Please ask me any questions if anything in my description isn't clear. I'm also putting up the car for sale locally and reserve the right to take down the auction at anytime if it's been sold outside of eBay. The Volvo is being sold in AS IS CONDITION with no expressed or implied warranty. $500 is due within 24 hours of the close of the auction and the balance is to be paid in cash at pick up. PLEASE ALSO NOTE THAT I'LL BE OUT OF THE COUNTRY FROM 12/12 - 12/15 -- I'll have no email access during that time. The winning bidder will be able to pick up the car after 12/15. Thanks. |

Volvo shows glimpses of new Concept C Coupe ahead of Frankfurt [w/video]
Mon, 26 Aug 2013Volvo has released a short teaser video for a concept car that will be unveiled on August 29 ahead of the Frankfurt Motor Show. At first glance, it would appear to be nothing more than a few sketches and some words from Volvo design boss Thomas Ingenlath, but at about the 11-second mark, four images are flashed on the screen revealing the true nature of the video - the Volvo Concept C Coupe.
As Inglenlath suggests in the video, this new concept is designed to help bring more excitement to the brand's lineup, and from what we can tell in these strategically captured shots, the company is definitely on to something. While we don't get too much of look from any one angle, the front reveals what appears to be a concave version of Volvo's signature grille and the side shows off a stylish greenhouse. We have to wonder, do these images confirm the identity of the mystery concept car that's been floating around the Internet this week? In either case, our favorite view is perhaps the rear shot giving us a glimpse of the car's name as well as its flat, wide haunches and C-shaped taillights.
Scroll down to watch the whole video, and if you don't have a trigger-quick mouse finger, don't worry. We made a gallery of screen shots showing the four embedded images.
LOLVO Volvo V60 video leverages the power of cats on cars
Wed, 02 Jul 2014You know what we haven't posted in a long time? A very weird, car-related video. It's high time we address this failing.
As strange videos go, this one is truly bizarre. The two-minute clip focuses on the Volvo V60 R-Design, although you're not going to be learning anything about the car. Instead, you're going to be focused on the weird narrator (and the cat decals on the windows).
It's like someone taught the Swedish Chef to speak English, but with a ridiculous accent and a script that's been fed through Google Translate. The result is a weirdly cerebral voice speaking in a manner that borders on gibberish mixed with information about the car. We're particularly fond of, "In accordance with Volvo tradition... the car... is... of course... furnished, with an inside." "Floor bibs," in reference to the floor mats, was an office favorite, as well.
2015 Volvo Inscription models get classy with an upgraded leather interior
Thu, 17 Apr 2014If 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.
