Volvo 245 Wagon 169k Miles, Incredible Condition A/t, No Accidents, R134a on 2040-cars
Middletown, New York, United States
|
This is a survivor car. It is in really nice condition, with no body damage and no evidence of any accidents. The paint appears to be original, as well as all the trim. Only the windshield has been replaced and is not original. Their is a bit of surface rust in a few areas, and one small spot with a bit more that I tried to capture with the camera.
The car does have an upgraded radio, but surprisingly enough, still has the original tool kit including the Italian manufactured vice grip, which people almost always keep when they sell the car. This car also has the 3rd row seat which is in excellent condition; and the optional plastic Volvo floor mats in all locations, including the rear cargo section. This kept the carpet in extremely good condition. The A/C was converted to R134a in 2010 by a certified shop, whose sticker appears under the hood. In the past 40,000 miles the following repairs and maintenance have been done: Exhaust from cat back, radiator, trans fluid, oil changes( many), front pads, rear pads and rotors, head gasket and water pump, timing belt, Wires ,cap, rotor, and plugs, and airbox cleaned, motor mount, rear shocks.These were all done by the same repair shop. Drivers side trim is loose at the front fender. it is held on with double sided tape. Had I kept the car, I would have ordered the proper clips for it. I am the fourth owner and recently purchased it since I had been looking for one in this condition for a long time; and finally found this one. A week ago I agreed to buy another car and now I can't believe I am selling this one, but I am. A $500 deposit is required at the end of the auction by PayPal, Balance cashiers check or cash. I am located in Orange County NY and can arrange for airport pickup at Steward International Airport (SWF) if required. I can be contacted with questions at 845-239-2368 |

Volvos will brake for bicyclists with new detection technology
Thu, 07 Mar 2013Anyone who pedals a bicycle knows that one of the biggest dangers to riders is a motorized vehicle - Volvo estimates that nearly 50 percent of all cyclists killed in European traffic have collided with a car. In the United States alone, 618 riders lost their lives in bicycle/motor vehicle crashes in 2010, and the number of injuries surpassed 52,000.
To help drop those numbers, Volvo has just announced Cyclist Detection with full auto brake - a technology that detects and automatically applies a vehicle's brakes when a cyclist swerves in front of a moving car. The basic components of the system include a radar unit integrated into the front grille, a camera fitted in front of the interior rear-view mirror and a central control unit. The radar is tasked with seeing obstacles in front of the vehicle and calculating distance, while the camera is responsible to determine what the object is. The central control unit, with rapid processing capabilities, monitors and evaluates the situation.
The technology, which will be sold bundled with its Pedestrian Detection and called Pedestrian and Cyclist Detection, will automatically apply full braking when both the radar and camera confirm a pedestrian or cyclist are in the immediate path of the vehicle. According to the automaker, the technology will be offered on the Volvo V40, S60, V60, XC60, V70, XC70 and S80 models from mid-May in 2013.
Apple announces CarPlay in-car iPhone interface
Mon, 03 Mar 2014Apple, maker of tech items like the iPhone, iPad and Mac line of computers, is extending its reach into the automotive market, making a fairly big announcement ahead of the Geneva Motor Show. No, it hasn't bought Tesla (yet). Instead, Apple has announced CarPlay, an all-new means of controlling an iPhone through your car.
Now, this doesn't strike us as some gimmicky thing. It's become increasingly common for automakers to take advantage of the high-speed data streams its customers enjoy on their smartphones in order to integrate navigation, traffic, audio and other infotainment items into a car's touchscreen interface. The Chevrolet Spark and Sonic are two prime examples of this move, using an iPhone's data stream for Siri integration and data for a third-party navigation app.
Owners will be able to plug in their iPhones to their cars via the USB port and gain control of a number of the device's functions, all through a car's touchscreen.
2015 Volvo S60 T6 Drive-E
Wed, 23 Apr 2014For those not paying attention, Volvo has updated its S60 sedan range for 2015 with a new range of engines under the Drive-E label. Wearing the same T5 and T6 badges to note the relative levels of power under the hood, both engines are 2.0-liter four-cylinders, with the lesser being turbocharged and the greater being both supercharged and turbocharged.
Both Drive-E variants are currently only available in front-wheel-drive flavor, though Volvo will still happily sell you an S60 T5 AWD with the older 2.5-liter turbo five-cylinder, or a top-of-the-line S60 T6 with a turbo'd 3.0-liter six-cylinder and all the wheels turning.
The car I drove for a week is perhaps the most balanced version of the S60 range, with that exotic sounding twin-charged 2.0-liter mill planted happily in the attractively sloping nose. Provided you're not hung up on front-drive dynamics, the T6 Drive-E might be a solid candidate for your next premium small sedan shopping list, as well.
