Custom 1997 Volvo 850 T5 Wagon Hot Rod, Rat Rod, Mild Custom, Pure Coooooooool on 2040-cars
Goleta, California, United States
This is a Mild Custom 1997 Volvo, nicknamed the "VOLVOLO". New lowering suspension parts from IPDUSA. New Uniroyal Tiger paw tires, the wheels are factory Volvo wheels, but have been professionally powder coated by Permacolor in Carpinteria, Ca. The hood scoop on the car was welded and grafted from a 1964 Thunderbird, the scoop is non-functional, but gives the car an attitude. The side panels and the side of the t-bird hood scoop have been riveted, again for a Hot Rod, Mild Custom, Attitude theme. The car runs and drives, transmission shifts smoothly, the brakes work great, the moon roof works fine, the power seats, windows, and locks all work... this is a car you can buy, fly in to Santa Barbara, ca. and drive home. This is not my daily driver, you'll see in the photo, I have many vehicles, but this car gets it's legs stretched once a week. The title is a clear title, currently registered in my name with current tags and California vanity plates "VOLVO LO". The car is insured. The interior is leather and some of the usual cracks in the passenger seat, but the driver seat will need some attention. I could have put seat covers on them or a blanket, or not shown them in the photos, but I want you to see a true representation of the car that I am selling. The battery is new... in the last couple of months. No issues starting or driving the car. The true mileage of the vehicle is unknown, the speedometer works fine, but the odometer does not work. This vehicle is sold as-is with no guarantees or warranties, expressed or implied. A $500 non-refundable deposit is due within 48 hours of the winning bid. Ask your questions, make your bids, and congratulations to the person who snaps this sweet ride up. Good Luck!!!

Volvo calls in S60 T5 over oil pressure indicator
Mon, 30 Dec 2013As anyone with a driver's license should be able to tell you, the oil pressure indicator on a car is a vital feature. If you don't have enough oil pressure, your engine could seize up, leaving you stranded and causing catastrophic damage for both your automobile and your wallet. Worryingly, then, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration says that the oil pressure indicator lamp on certain Volvo S60 models is prone to failure, prompting the manufacturer to issue a recall.
The issue pertains to MY2011-2012 Volvo S60s with turbocharged five-cylinder engines manufactured between June 22, 2010 and May 14, 2012. All told, precisely 30,929 units are affected by the recall campaign. The owners of affected models will be notified by Volvo to bring in their cars to their local dealer for a software update. See the official notice below for details.
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.
Volvo specs new 450-hp triple-charged four-cylinder engine
Tue, 07 Oct 2014When Volvo lifted the veil on the new XC90 a little over a month ago, it announced that all versions would be powered by one engine design: a new 2.0-liter four-cylinder to be offered in various states of tune. That would range, Volvo said, all the way up to a high-output version with "around 400 horsepower," but while it wouldn't specify exact output, now it has.
The new High Performance Drive-E Powertrain incorporates two parallel turbochargers fed by a third electric turbo-compressor. Instead of feeding the cylinders directly, that third unit spools up the twin turbochargers, working together with a dual fuel pump pressurized to 250 bar.
The result is an output of 450 horsepower - far more than the existing 320-hp version and even more than expected. That also works out to 225 hp/liter, far more than the 177 hp/liter boasted by Mercedes-AMG's high-output turbo four and the 139 hp/liter in the Alfa Romeo 4C. Short of a rotary engine (whose actual displacement is the subject of great debate), you'd have to go up to something like the Koenigsegg One:1 (268 hp/liter) to find a higher specific output than what Volvo's boasting here.
