I am a Volvo tech and I'm selling a dependable 1998 Volvo v70 R AWD rare w/ every option(non smoker) or pet hair, I purchased this silver (always looks clean) wagon from a customer of mine recently, he took great care of it but he got into a accident in a parking lot and it smashed the pass front fender (replaced w/ oem fender,no frame damage) not really a huge issue but the car needed a large maintenance service performed and he could not afford the repairs so I bought the wagon for resale.  If you are looking for a Volvo wagon this is the last real Volvo after 1998 Volvo switched over to a electronic throttle body on there engines that had many issues which caused Volvo to put out a recall on the throttle body, plus the ignition system was switched over from a distributor to coil over plug which crack all the time and cause misfire issues, plus post 98 Volvos have many electronic control modules which are expensive to repair when they go bad I repeat when they go bad not if they go bad, I have owned many Volvos but 1998 and prior years were very dependable, you don't have to take my word on this but do yourself a favor and go online and read posts on the 98 and prior Volvos compared to post 98 models.


I recently replaced many parts on the R here is a list of the repairs, new front and rear pads and rotors, radiator fan, re-manufactured abs module, upper coolant hose, timing belt service (oem parts), air filter, cab-filter, oem spark plugs, oem spark plug wires, oem cap and rotor, serpentine belt, front struts upper bushings(spring seats), evac and recharged a/c, battery, all fluids.In the last year the front axles have been replaced, the mufflers have been replaced w/ dual ipd mufflers and tips, lower control arms, radiator, ect sensor, mass air flow sensor, rear wiper motor and regulator, wipers, head light bulbs, fogg light bulbs, tail light bulbs.I replaced many of the parts because I came across great discounted parts (oem) and it should help w/ the resale price. I have replaced all the fluids, four wheel alignment, the tires are new goodyear eagles rsa all seasons (great in rain and quiet), The 16" stock oem alloy wheels are clean no curb rash,  the engine idles perfectly and performs great I have owned other R wagons before but this one seems faster then the other not sure why all my vehicles are always basically left stock, the transmission has been serviced every 30k w/ new atf shifts properly. The awd driveline is in good working order no vibrations, the brakes perform properly no squeaks, or vibrations, the suspension is tight there is no loose play in any of components NO fluid leaks, a/c blows cold, heat blows hot, premium sound system oem. Everything works in and out of the Volvo I have gone threw every system w/ my Volvo scanner (engine, transmission, abs, srs, climate control etc) no trouble codes (dtcs) there are no surprises every switch, bulb, solenoid works. I removed the tailgate panel because no matter what you do they rattle and its annoying also as you can see I removed the headlight wipers because they are worthless they cause more issues then what there worth so I always remove them on my vehicles if you want them ill give them to you they work fine.The windows are tinted (drivers window has a little part torn but still looks good) and keep the interior cool on hot days, the interior is in great shape dark wood trim, leather and suede in good condition normal wear and tear drivers seat has normal wear look at pics, small dents here and there bumpers have been touched up from rock chips but the body is still pretty straight for being a 1998 vehicle NO RUST,tinted tail lights I would give the body a 8 out of 10, the paint still shines like new. I have drove the R and I have been averaging 22-23 MPG previous owner told me he got better mpg w/ driveshaft off I currently have it installed I can remove it if you want let me know. PLEASE EMAIL W/ ANY QUESTIONS

Volvo prices revamped 2014 lineup

Thu, 01 Aug 2013

Volvo has made quite a few changes to its US lineup for the 2014 model year. The C30 hatchback and C70 convertible are gone; the S60, S80, XC60 and XC70 have all been reschnozzed; and in a few months, Volvo will bring its V60 wagon across the pond for Stateside consumption. Only the range-topping XC90 carries on unchanged, though a brand new version is expected to launch sometime next year.
The S60 starts as low as $32,400 for the entry level T5 model, and reaches as high as $45,700 for the T6 R-Design Platinum trim. The larger S80 sedan starts at $39,900, with its range-topping T6 Platinum version commanding $48,150. XC70 pricing ranges anywhere from $34,500 for the 3.2 FWD to $45,650 for the T6 Platinum, XC60 numbers span from $34,850 to $49,800, and XC90 prices start as low as $39,700 and as high as $45,400. None of these prices include $895 for destination, and pricing for the swoopy V60 wagon has not been released just yet.
While the majority of Volvo's 2014 model year enhancements are visual, some neat updates have been made mechanically, as well. There's a new Advanced Quick Shift mode for the six-speed automatic transmission that's paired with the turbocharged six-cylinder engine, and Volvo says that the S60 R-Design will now scoot to 60 miles per hour two-tenths of a second quicker (5.3 versus 5.5). In the XC60 R-Design, AQS improves 0-60 acceleration by four-tenths of a second, down to 6.2 from 6.6 seconds.

Volvo Concept Estate hauls in great expectations [w/videos]

Wed, 05 Mar 2014

You're looking at the third leg of Volvo's award-winning concept trilogy, the Concept Estate. Despite its banal name, this sweeping longroof showcar has our attention like few other cars at the Geneva Motor Show.
It's not just that we have a weakness for shooting brakes or Volvo's take on the genre in particular (we can see some P1800ES in this design). We just think this car is exceptionally well surfaced, with a fantastic stance and the sort of clean lines that are singularly appropriate of a Scandinavian design. We also appreciate the details that are expected to inform future production models, including the T-shaped headlamps, strong rear shoulders and floating grille mount. In fact, the vast majority of the Concept Estate's design idiom is expected to make it to showrooms in future models, starting with the long-overdue, second-generation XC90 crossover.
We hope - but don't expect - that attitude carries over to the interior, which has stunning, white leather, floating clamshell seats backed in plaid. If there's one cabin feature that's expected to make it to production, it's a derivative of the car's new infotainment system, which features a massive touchscreen with tablet-like gesture controls.

Volvo bringing Chinese-built cars to America beginning next year

Wed, 18 Jun 2014

Just because the penetration of the American automotive market by Chinese brands hasn't quite happened yet doesn't mean that Chinese-built cars are far off. According to a new report, we could very soon see long-wheelbase Volvo S60s that were assembled in the People's Republic arriving on US shores.
The report comes from Automotive News China, which cites an anonymous Volvo exec. An official Volvo spokesperson later corroborated ANC's report, although where the original source claimed that we could see the Chinese-built S60L in US dealers at some point in 2015, the company line was that a timeline hadn't been established to begin exports from the world's most populous nation.
According to Volvo, the benefit to exporting from China to the United States rather than from Sweden is the relationship between the US dollar and the Chinese yuan. Overall, it's a less tumultuous issue than the dollar-to-euro situation. By moving vehicles from China to the US, the Chinese-owned company is limiting the degree of risk it's taking with sudden currency swings.
