Volvo 1969 1800 S, Restored, Overdrive New Bmw Heated Leather Seats Nice Car on 2040-cars
Medford, Oregon, United States
|
I am reducing my sports car collection and therefor selling my restored 1969 Volvo 1800S sports coupe. It has recently been restored with many new parts including engine rebuild by prior owner. It was repainted in Oakland Raider colors by the prior owner a Raider Fan. She spend a lot of money on the restoration to make this a desirable driving Volvo that should increase in value over time. It has twin Carbs and is much more user friendly that the later injected model. It has the smaller desireable chrome bumpers, great working overdrive and new brakes and running gear. It was not a full body off restoration but rather "ground up" hence it is not a #1 car but I rate it as a #2 clean but not prestine.
We did not like the old Volvo seats and had access to two newer BMW coupe, leather heated power seats which we installed. I would feel comfortable driving this Volvo most anywhere but is you want to trailer her I a compact two wheel car trailer that fits her nicely and will sell it with the car for $900 over the auction price. We have set a very reasonable reserve and it should be met. So bid to own. If you have less than 10 positive ratings please don't bid without contaction me for approval. You may see the Volve and a test drive and inspection is encouraged. As with all used vehicles it is sold as is here in Medford, Oregon. I will help shipping if desired. If you have questions please email me at whf2929@aol.com or call me at 541 944 2929 and I will try to answer them. Thanks for looking and bidding. It is for sale. I am approaching 80 and sports cars are too hard to enter with this stoved up body. On Mar-02-14 at 11:46:36 PST, seller added the following information: Just read where a 1969 Volvo 1800S set the Worlds record to mileage by one owner cars, 3 Million Miles and still counting. Reliable? you betcha |

Volvo to build range-topping S90 sedan in China
Thu, 13 Nov 2014Volvo is furthering its deep ties in China by announcing a major expansion to its factory in Daqing that will equip the site to build its future S90 sedan. The automaker is promising to make the plant, "one of the most advanced car making facilities in China," according to its press release. Unfortunately, the company isn't specifying the amount being invested or how long the work will take.
Because the northeastern Chinese city of Daqing owns about 37 percent of the automaker, the location for the significant expansion isn't entirely surprising, especially since Geely owns a majority stake in the Swedish brand. The existing factory there employs about 700 people to build the original XC90 for the local market, but the upgrades will allow the plant to handle Volvo's Scalable Product Architecture modular platform.
To be fair, Volvo doesn't specifically call out the S80-replacing S90 by name in its announcement. However, it promises the first vehicle built in Daqing after the expansion will be a new premium sedan, and the upgrades will allow the plant to make "most innovative vehicles in its product range," and the range-topping sedan is widely expected to adopt the S90 moniker.
Volvo to unveil permanent high-beam headlamp technology [w/video]
Fri, 01 Mar 2013Volvo will be showing off its Active High Beam technology at the Geneva Motor Show next week. The system will allow drivers to use their high beams all the time and adds another responsibility to the cameras mounted by the rearview mirror, making them detect traffic ahead, whether it be another car or a truck or motorcycle and in the same lane or oncoming. When a vehicle is detected, a special projector in the Xenon lamps can block out only the portion of the high beam that would impair the other driver. Volvo says the system is accurate down to a 1.5-inch margin around another object.
Active High Beam will be fitted to the Volvo S60, V60 and XC60 and we have to assume they mean the non-US versions of those cars. Audi has a similar technology that it calls "matrix beam lighting," and due to the way the US Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard code is written, such active control of high beams is verboten on cars sold here.
The Swedish brand also plans to present a collision-avoidance technology it's calling a "world-first." The press release below has more information and the accompanying video demonstrates the lighting tech.
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.
