1981 Volvo Dl, 2 Door Sedan, One California Owner, Garage Kept, No Reserve on 2040-cars
Castro Valley, California, United States
|
Selling this 1981 Volvo DL. Purchased brand new by "Uncle Ray" in Northern California where it still lives. The blue paint still shines nice. It has met with a few parking lot blemishes(see photos and video). It was maintained and still is to the tee. A stack of service records accompany the vehicle. The sunroof still slides nicely. The interior, although nice by Volvo standards does have a small hole in the driver's side bottom cushion. There are seat covers covering the front seat. The passenger front is still nice. The rear seats look like no one has ever sat in them. It has been lovingly owned by one owner more over 30 years. The dash does have some small cracks(see video). The sunroof slides nicely and it rides on matching tires. Words cannot describe how nice and original this Volvo is. I will let the videos and photos show you. It a vintage Volvo has been in your hearts desire, then this is the one for you. For, you can search the world and not find an original one like this still owned by the original owner. He has kept this Volvo in exceptional shape. It is now ready for the next Volvo owner. I only hope that whoever gets the Volvo takes care of it as well as "Uncle Ray" did.
With all my auctions, a few requirements. First, NO PAYPAL. Second, any and all bidders with less than 10 feedback and/or negative feedback must contact me PRIOR to bidding with their full name and contact number. Third, you are bidding to OWN, not look and make excuses. Any and all inspections are welcome during the auction period, not after. Once the auction is completed, you are the NEW owner. Please make sure you have any and all funds necessary to purchase this vehicle.
Also, selling in AS-IS, Where-Is condition with NO WARRANTIES, expressed or implied. Vehicle is a 33 year old vehicle and although looks and runs good, it should not be considered SHOWROOM fresh. Seller has represented vehicle to the best of his knowledge and also makes no representations as to the condition of the vehicle. Vehicle is also advertised locally and seller reserves right to end the auction early and cancel all bids. So, with a great big, I LOVE VOLVOS yell, let this auction begin. NO RESERVE.

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.
2013 Volvo C30 R-Design Polestar Limited Edition [w/video]
Thu, 28 Feb 2013Last Hurrah Comes and Goes In A Hurry
It isn't very often that we drive a new car that's already out of production, but that's exactly what has happened with this 2013 Volvo C30. After just five years on the North American market, the last C30 quietly rolled off the assembly line back in December. But before that happened, Volvo decided to send its compact hatchback out on a high note with a little added performance and exclusivity courtesy of this R-Design Polestar Limited Edition model.
The term "hot hatch" is admittedly tossed around a lot these days, but the combination of an R-Design styling package coupled with a good number of extra ponies under the hood should be more than enough to put the C30 in the mix with the likes of the Volkswagen GTI and its not-too-distant cousin, the Mazdaspeed3. The chief problem with the Polestar Limited Edition, though, is that it's priced against sportier all-wheel-drive compacts like the Golf R and Subaru WRX STI, so we decided to spend a week with the Polestar to see if its exclusivity and performance are enough to make up for its higher price tag.
Volvo S80 nip/tuck spotted in China
Sun, 16 Dec 2012An early look at the new face of the Volvo S80 has made its way to the web. The Chinese site Auto Sina spotted a revised version of the country's S80L out in public and in plain view. Not too long ago, Doug Speck, the global head of marketing and sales for Volvo, said designers were working on a mild facelift for the S60 and S80, and while it is possible the Swedish manufacturer will roll out a different front fascia for the US market, the move seems unlikely.
The S80L seen here boats a tweaked grille and a Passat-inspired lower valance. New wheels and side-view mirrors also appear to be part of the update, as does a modified rear bumper and exhaust outlets. Volvo is set to debut the facelifed S80 next year, and while the manufacturer hasn't delivered an exact time frame, good money is on the vehicle showing up at the Detroit Auto Show in January or the Geneva Motor Show in March. Stay tuned for more information.
