Exterior: Body and paint have a few blemishes. Very minor rust in a couple places and various, small paint chips. Driver side rear door got a sweet parking lot repair 2 owners ago. It had a dent and the owner had a guy in the parking lot of wherever he was say, "I can fix that for $20." Owner said ok and what you see is what you get. Lol. The owner got what he paid for. I was going to fix the door and paint it myself but I just don't have the time to do it. It really is a fairly easy and inexpensive fix. There are two trim pieces removed but I have the trim. One is missing off the door with the primer spot and isn't installed for obvious reasons. The other is missing from the passenger side far rear window. I'm just waiting for the clips to come in the mail to install it. Volvo ordered the wrong ones. I have recently painted the bumpers and side view mirrors with bumper and trim paint so they look good. The front right turn signal just had a piece of the lens removed when a rock decided to jump up and high five it. Aside from that stuff, it really isn't a bad looking car.
Interior: Everything works as it should. Sunroof is a little slow but I don't use it. Carpet is in excellent condition and still has the original floor mats. Drivers seat is tearing at the seam which is typical on any 22 year old car with leather seats. Easy fix. Passenger seat has a small, 2" piece of leather torn. It's probably a little harder fix but should still be repairable. Rear seat is excellent. Headliner could use replacement but is presentable and is intact. Both front "oh crap" handles are missing. Dash is beautiful. Rear facing seats are complete and working. There's a couple plastic trim pieces that are cracked but nothing real noticeable. Engine & Trans: Runs great. Long maintenance history. I have a pile of receipts for recent and past repairs. Most recently replaced are the radiator, some hoses, plugs, plug wires, cap, rotor, crank position sensor, fuel pump relay, radio noise suppression relay, starter and ignition control module. The a/c is all there and was working but the condenser has a leak and will need replaced. Again, I'd do it but don't have the time. A new one is $80 and they're easy to change. The previous owner had taken the car from Phoenix all the way to Washington state without a hitch. I have a receipt to show that he had taken it there. While it was there he had all the brakes done. Trans is a rare manual 4 speed with a push button 5th gear. It moves the rear wheels as it should. Yes, this car is rear wheel drive. Suspension: New IPD poly bushings up front and IPD heavy duty rear springs. Otherwise it's stock afaik. Things that don't work: A/C and tach. As I stated above the a/c needs a condenser. As for the tach, I've been troubleshooting for a couple weeks and have come up with nothing. I have a spare gauge cluster that I've swapped tachometers with and still nothing. I've checked more than that, though. Why am I selling such a hard to find car? Well, I'm a Volkswagen guy to begin with. Second, I have 7 vehicles and playing musical cars gets irritating. I refuse to sell any of our Volkswagens and my truck is worth its weight in gold so it stays. With that said, I simply don't have the time or space for this car. So, it has to go. Technically, it doesn't have to go. But, it does. Ah hell, you get the point. I don't need to sell it as I don't need the money but it would be nice to free up the space. |

Volvo's pedestrian airbags may already be on their way out
Sun, 01 Dec 2013As proof of just how quickly automotive technology can advance, just check out the Volvo V40. Developed with an external airbag aimed at better protecting pedestrians in the event of a collision, this innovative safety device could be phased out soon in place of more advanced active safety technologies like pedestrian detection and auto braking.
Go Auto had a chance to talk to Volvo senior VP Lex Kerssmakers at the Tokyo Motor Show, and he suggested that the V40's under-hood airbag will not be used on the next-gen XC90 and might not even be continued on non-SUV models. The passive airbag was designed to deploy at speeds of less than 31 miles per hour to help limit head injuries to pedestrians, but new active technologies are designed to prevent collisions in the first place.
The interview also reveals some details about the new XC90, such as the inclusion of a plug-in hybrid system and the debut of a new safety technology. Kerssmakers told Go Auto that a new Volvo concept will be unveiled at the Detroit Auto Show in January, but it won't be for the XC90.
Volvo XC40 delayed because it's too big for its own good?
Thu, 11 Jul 2013As fuel prices rise and greenhouse gases poke holes in the ozone, big, gas-guzzling sports utility vehicles are becoming less popular as smaller, cleaner vehicles, such as crossovers, gain market share. Volvo is late to the small crossover party, though it wants to build the XC40 crossover to compete with the Land Rover Evoque. The only problem with that, Autocar reports, is that a suitable (read: small enough) platform for it is up to five years away, despite a hopeful photos of it in testing guise.
Volvo is currently developing a new platform, called SPA (Scaleable Platform Architecture), to underpin its next-generation of vehicles, such as the 2014 XC60 pictured above and the S60 sedan, which is likely the smallest vehicle that would be able to use the new platform. Furthermore, there doesn't seem to be a quick fix for the gaping hole in Volvo's lineup, and Geely, the Chinese budget car manufacturer that owns Volvo, is reportedly preparing to launch a mid-market brand that may or may not be sold outside of China.
Can't Swedish car manufacturers catch a break?
Volvo Concept XC Coupe leaked [w/video] [UPDATE]
Tue, 07 Jan 2014Last month, Volvo gave us a teaser of its new Concept XC Coupe, set to debut at the Detroit Auto Show. And now, just a few days before the doors open at Cobo Hall, leaked images of the stylish new crossover showcar have leaked online, courtesy of CarBuyer.co.uk.
The Concept XC Coupe is a sort of high-riding successor to the very attractive Concept Coupe that wowed us at the 2013 Frankfurt Motor Show. With its burlier dimensions and hatchback configuration, the Concept XC gives us a better glimpse at Volvo's new styling direction, which is expected to debut in production form on the next-generation XC90 crossover. We've already seen some leaked sketches of the new XC90, and it sure does look like this Concept XC.
We don't have any further details about the Concept XC Coupe, but from the images, we can see that it will use a four-passenger seating configuration, with rear seats that fold flat. There are also exterior badges for surround radar and a 360-degree camera system, suggesting some new safety tech fitting of safety-minded brand.
