Rare Vovlo V70 R Wagon 4-door 2.5l 2004 on 2040-cars
Winter Park, Florida, United States
|
This Volvo V70 R is a very well taken care of station wagon, owned by the former general sales manager of the Volvo Store in Winter Park. Needless to say, this car has been maintained to the exacting standards of a Volvo Expert. The interior is in impeccable condition, and there are few V70 R's that have been preserved in such high condition. The V70 R comes equipped with Volvo's own 4C multi-mode suspension, allowing for both sport and comfortable suspension selections. The V70R will feel just as comfortable getting groceries as it will out on a track doing 120mph. Brembo Brakes are standard issue on ever V70R, because the 2.5L Turbocharged Straight 5 Engine was simply too powerful for standard brakes. The Wall Street Journal says that with "79% more power than the base V70 wagon, Its current V70 R is the fastest Volvo wagon yet. Our tester sprinted from zero to 60 mph in 5.5 seconds -- a hair quicker than a Porsche Boxster. And on the practical side, it was the only car out of the five that could carry our TV box without requiring us to fold the rear seats first." "Seeking to lure speed-crazy guys with kids, car makers are trying to transform the dowdy old family hauler into something new: the manwagon. In perhaps the most extreme sign of the industry's horsepower race, some of these wagons are quicker than a Porsche Boxster. They have monstrous engines, giant brakes, track-ready suspensions and race-car-style seats -- plus prices up to $30,000 higher than the base versions. But unlike a sports car, these wagons can fit strollers and coolers in the back."
For more than 43 years, Noel's has been the reliable source for remanufactured Mercedes Benz longblock engines. *Picture of engines are photos of actual longblocks remanufactured at Noels. No advanced core charge, complimentary installation kit, and our 4-year or 50,000 mile warranty.
Noel's Rebuilt engines are built to maximize performance and longevity. All valves used in Noel's engines have under .0003" runout to increase compression, and create a smooth idle. Every engine is taken completely apart and inspected. All cranks at Noel's are standard, unground cranks. New rods are statically balanced by weight and must pass a straightness test of .001". New pistons are properly clearanced into the existing block and are matched to a replaced rod. Block and head decking is done to a perfect finish, and cams are polished into a "Racing Style" finish to decrease resistance. Many of our engines are built with parts that we have designed and fabricated ourselves to increase the longevity and horsepower output of our engines. The majority of our engines have tweaked cams that allow them to respond instantly and run smoothly in the low end. All seals within our longblocks are brand new, and every wear surface inside of the engine is pre-lubed so that after installation and insertion of oil into the engine, it will run in the original, pristine condition that it was manufactured to. It would be almost impossible to find a new factory engine with a lower leak down than our remanufactured engines. We do not use 'general' engine building techniques for our engines. Every engine that enters Noels has a specific set of problems that we have diagnosed, and we use our experience from building race engines to improve upon the failure points in every troubled engine. Many of our customers have said that "With a Noel Engine, My car runs BETTER than it was new!" Say goodbye to oil leaks, pesky electronic codes, and poor idling, and say hello to more horsepower in your car than ever before! We believe in taking the time to inspect new parts, and build the engine right the first time. Mercedes has New Mercedes has Reman |

Volvo S60 Polestar Concept looking Smurfy in Jay Leno's Garage
Tue, 22 Jan 2013Is it just us, or has Jay Leno's Garage evolved from an intimate, off-the-cuff video series designed to show off the late-night comedian's automobile collection into something a lot more ambitious and... mainstream? This isn't a complaint, exactly, as Leno has been putting out engaging videos at an increasingly furious pace. However, we can't help but note that the subjects have largely graduated from the funnyman's steam-powered eccentricities and forgotten classics to lots of new production and concept cars, often with automaker execs in tow. It's almost as if the series is turning into an internet version of his NBC talk show, one where bigwigs swing by to show off their latest projects as part of their publicity tours, only instead of new movies and albums, it's cars or the occasional motorcycle.
Such is the exactly case with Volvo's stonking S60 Polestar Concept, which makes its appearance in Jay's warehouse of wonders this week. Tuned by in-house skunkworks Polestar, the "Swedish Racing Blue" S60 has certainly been making the rounds as of late, with recent appearances near Leno's garage at the LA Auto Show and an Auto Motor und Sport track faceoff against the BMW M3 and Audi RS4 Avant.
Perhaps we shouldn't be surprised that Volvo is so keen to get its showcar in front of the cameras - last we heard, executives were seriously considering a small production run for their unlikely 508-horsepower, all-wheel drive sport sedan, though we continue to hear that realistic pricing is likely to be a roadblock.
How does a massive Volvo truck compare to a Koenigsegg on a track?
Tue, 11 Nov 2014Volvo Trucks thinks that its latest FH semi truck has a little sports car DNA mixed in with the ability to haul heavy loads thanks to its novel dual-clutch gearbox. And the company's marketing department certainly has an intriguing strategy to get the word out about the big rig's sporty traits. First, it staged a prank on an unsuspecting valet on the Italian Riviera, and now the FH has lined up a track battle around the Knutstorp racetrack against Sweden's ultimate supercar - a Koenigsegg One:1.
Fifth Gear host Tiff Needell takes the reins of the big Volvo and spends a little bit of time talking up its I-Shift Dual Clutch gearbox. However, the real fun is seeing the FH taking on the One:1. Of course, a head-to-head battle would hardly be fair against these extremely mismatched opponents. Instead, the challenge is for the 1,360-horsepower Koenigsegg to lap the track twice in the same time or less than the semi can do it once.
You just have to watch the video to see how if the big rig rises to the challenge. Also, scroll down to read Volvo Truck's press release touting the new gearbox, and check out the company's YouTube channel for more views of the race and a behind-the-scenes look.
Volvo will replace C70... eventually
Tue, 05 Nov 2013Volvo has already announced the end of production for its C70 hardtop convertible, a handsome but seriously dated offering that was last refreshed in 2010. Volvo won't be abandoning the two-door coupe-convertible market for long, though, as news out of Australia claims that a replacement, based on the striking Concept Coupe, will join the Chinese-owned, Swedish brand's ranks, although it's unclear precisely when we'll see it on the road.
"Eventually yes... as soon as possible," Hakan Samuelsson, Volvo's CEO, told the Drive, before adding, "when we are ready."
"The Coupe Concept car, we can put that into production and it will have an exposure on the brand. But at the end it's the cream on the cake and at the end you need the cake first before you put the cream on it," said Volvo's Senior Vice President of Product Strategy and Vehicle Line Management, Lex Kerssemakers.
