CAR HAS PLENTY OF POWER, PULLS STRONG AND DRIVES LIKE NEW. A WELL TAKEN CARE OF SUNNY FLORIDA CAR!!!!!!

I‘VE HAD THE PLEASURE OF OWNING 3 PARTICULAR VOLVO’S DURING MY LIFE AND ALL WERE FACTORY TRUE “R” CARS…….  INCLUDING A 1995 850 T5-R, LATER ON A 1997 850-R, AND CURRENTLY WHAT YOU SEE HERE A 2006 S60-R. DON’T BE FOOLED BY THE NEWER VOLVO LINEUP OF “R-DESIGN” MODELS. THEY ARE BASICALLY JUST AESTHETICS ADD ONS AND NOTHING MORE. –THAT’S MY OPINION!

I REALLY HATE TO SELL THIS EXCLUSIVE CAR, BUT THE ONLY REASON FOR MOVING-ON IS THAT I NEEDED MORE REAR CARGO ROOM. UNFORTUNATELY, VOLVO HAS NOT ANSWERED THE CALLING FOR A TRUE “R” SUV, SO IN THE INTERIM, I MOVED ON AND PURCHASED A BMW X5-“M” SUV THIS WEEK.

THE S60-R HAS APPROXIMATELY 74,500 MILES AND REQUIRES NOTHING MORE THAN A NEW DRIVER AND NICE RADAR DETECTOR!  AGAIN, IT DRIVES PERFECT, PULLS STRONG, LOOKS GREAT, AND TURNS HEADS FOR A SECOND LOOK. PLEASE DO KEEP IN MIND THAT IT IS AN 8 YEAR OLD CAR AND IS DRIVEN DAILY SO WEAR AND TEAR SHOULD BE EXPECTED.  HOPEFULLY A VOLVO ENTHUSIAST OUT THERE CAN ENJOY IT AS MUCH AS I HAVE.

A FEW THINGS TO NOTE:  EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE A CHECK MESSAGE ON THE DASH APPEARS FOR THE ACTIVE SUSPENSION. I HAVE HAD MY VOLVO DEALER CHECK IT OUT AND THE MASTER TECH WHO WORKS ON MY CAR RAN A COMPLETE “VIDA” DIAGNOSTIC AS WELL AS PERFORMED A “S.U.M” RECALIBRATION (VOLVOS OWN SOFTWARE MODULE). IT BASICALLY INDICATED THAT A RANDOM LOW VOLTAGE SIGNAL READING WAS APPEARING ON AND OFF ON THE LEFT FRONT DRIVERS SHOCK ABSORBER. I WAS TOLD BY THE MASTER TECH, WHO ALSO OWNS AN S60-R, THAT IF IT CONTINUES TO DRIVE AND FUNCTON LIKE NORMAL, THEN  NOT TO BOTHER WITH IT UNTIL LATER ON DOWN THE ROAD. FROM WHAT HE TOLD ME AND FROM WHAT I HAVE READ, IT APPEARS TO BE A COMMON ISSUE AMONG MANY S60R OWNERS. NEVERTHELESS, I HAVE DRIVEN THE CAR FOR WELL OVER 5,000 PLUS MILES SINCE THEN AND THE SUSPENSION STILL FUNCTIONS AND DRIVES LIKE NORMAL EVEN THOUGH THE MESSAGE POPS UP ON THE DASH EVERY NOW AND THEN.  

LASTLY, ONE COSMETIC ISSUE TO NOTE IS THAT THE LOWER BOTTOM PORTION OF THE FRONT BUMPER HAS A 2-3 INCH CRACK IN THE PLASTIC UNDERSIDE WHICH IS NOT VERY NOTICABLE FROM THE FRONT OF THE CAR. THIS WAS CAUSED BY MY OWN FAULT WHILE REVERSING OUT OF A PARKING SPOT LATE ONE EVENING. AS YOU MAY HAVE NOTICED THE CAR SITS RATHER LOW TO THE GROUND, AND UNFORTUNATLY THE LOWER FRONT BUMPER COVER WENT OVER A BROKEN PARKING STOP AND SNAGGED ON IT WHEN REVERSE OUT. SINCE THEN, I HAVE LEFT IT ALONE AND IT’S NOT THAT NOTICABLE UNLESS YOU LAY DOWN IN FRONT OF THE BUMPER AND LOOK UP UNDER THE COVER.

OVERALL THE CAR IS IN GREAT SHAPE AND HAS BEEN SERVICED REGULARLY. ALL BOOKS AND MANUALS AND ONE KEY ARE INCLUDED.   I HAVE A CLEAN FLORIDA TITLE IN HAND AND IS READY FOR TRANSFER TO A NEW OWNER.

THE CAR IS ALSO FOR SALE LOCALLY SO I RESERVE THE RIGHT TO END AUCTION AT ANY TIME. BUYER IS RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY OR ALL PICK-UPS. WINNING BIDDER MUST COMPLETE TRANSACTION AND TAKE POSSESSION OF CAR WITHIN 5 DAYS. THE CAR IS BEING SOLD AS-IS WITH NO WARRANTY. PLEASE ALSO NOTE THAT I DRIVE THIS CAR DAILY SO MILEAGE MAY VARY. PLEASE FEEL FREE TO REACH OUT TO ME IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS AND AS ALWAYS, PLEASE BID WITH CONFIDENCE AS I HAVE A PERFECT FEEDBACK SCORE AND BELIEVE IN HONESTY AND FAIRNESS. THANKS FOR LOOKING AND GOOD LUCK!

Volvo to test 100 self-driving cars on Swedish roads [w/video]

Fri, 06 Dec 2013

Autonomous vehicles are increasingly being tested on public roads around the globe, including Nissan in Japan and Google here in the US, and now Volvo is preparing to test its own self-driving cars on the streets of Sweden. In conjunction with the state government, Volvo's Drive Me project kicks off next year, starting with the development of customer research and infrastructure technology before setting 100 self-driving cars loose on the streets of Gothenburg in 2017.
These 100 cars will be in the hands of customers, and the tests will help Volvo and the Swedish government track varying aspects of self-driving cars including economic benefits, consumer confidence, traffic flow and passenger safety. The technology being developed by Volvo uses not only on-board radar and sensors but also map data gathered from the cloud, and it controls all driving systems including the brakes, throttle and steering. Drivers can engage and disengage the car's autonomous drive mode by pushing a button on the steering wheel, and the technology will also allow for a self-parking feature.
While the cars shown in this demo are S60 models, the test vehicles will be based on Volvo's upcoming Scalable Product Architecture (SPA), which underpins future models like the next-gen Volvo XC90. Scroll down for a video and press release marking the announcement.

Ford tumbles to second worst in Consumer Reports reliability survey, list dominated by Japanese [w/video]

Mon, 29 Oct 2012

It's no secret that MyFord Touch has had its share of problems since being introduced, but the most recent reliability survey from Consumer Reports shows just how much this infotainment system has affected Ford. Just two years ago, the automaker was in the top 10 for the institute's reliability rankings, but since then, it has tumbled to the second-lowest rung just above dead-last Jaguar. In addition to MyFord Touch, CR also attributes a handful of new products that have had issues right out of the gate.
Compiled from 1.2 million subscriber surveys, this year's auto reliability survey heavily favors Japanese automakers, with eight of the 10 spots hailing from Japan. Toyota brands grabbed the top three spots (Scion, Toyota and Lexus - in that order) with Mazda, Subaru, Honda and Acura filling the next four spots. The only non-Asian automaker cracking the top 10 was Audi at number eight.
Audi climbed a total of 18 spots from last year, and Cadillac and GMC round out this year's top gainers breaking into the top 15. Helping Cadillac's upward movement, the CTS Coupe was named the most reliable domestic car. Lincoln, Volvo and Chrysler join Ford on this year's biggest loser list.

Volvo Concept XC Coupe is ready to hit the slopes

Tue, 14 Jan 2014

There's something inescapably right about a Swedish car with a set of skis on its roof. It doesn't matter if it's a Jurassic-era Volvo Amazon, a Saab 900 Turbo, or even a Koenigsegg Agera R. Surely it's some sort of Scandinavian birthright... right along with immaculate complexion. The latest to carry on that tradition in fine form? The Volvo Concept XC Coupe, just released at this week's Detroit Auto Show.
The two-door, four-seat XC Coupe rolled onto stage here at Cobo pre-outfitted with a matching ski box, looking sharp on its 21-inch wheels. According to Volvo, the box isn't an afterthought - in fact, the XC Coupe's design itself was "inspired by modern sports equipment."
As for the rest of the concept's genetic makeup, at this point, we don't have much to go on. Volvo has admitted that the XC Coupe rides atop its new boron-steel-intensive Scalable Product architecture, but it has declined to outline any sort of powertrain details. We're not sure if this showcar has any production future, but we do expect for its design language to inform the next-generation XC90 crossover.
