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!

Jaguar turns down offers to join V8 Supercars, questions AMG, Volvo participation
Thu, 27 Jun 2013Rumors have swirled in recent weeks that Jaguar may be the next manufacturer to join the V8 Supercars racing series, made popular in Australia but now well-known in other parts of the world as well. Sadly, Jag's participation is not to be. In fact, it would be "insane," according to Jaguar Land Rover Asia Pacific Managing Director David Blackhall, for it to accept either of the two offers it has received to bring Jaguar into V8 Supercars.
Not only is Jaguar not interested in entering V8 Supercars, says Blackhall, it also fails to understand the recent entries from AMG and Volvo. "I don't know what it does for AMG to get flogged by a V8 Commodore week after week, but it's their brand, their issue. And the same thing will happen to Volvo to be honest."
Judging by Blackhall's statements to motoring.com.au, after not-so-serious consideration, the automaker decided the monetary commitment it would take to compete for wins would be more than any potential exposure would be worth, despite the fact that Jaguar has a 5.0-liter V8 to go along with what would seem to be a tailor-made rear-wheel-drive chassis. For what it's worth, one offer would have had Jaguar putting its name across an engine made by someone else, an option that was flatly turned down.
Edmunds ranks the best used cars for 2013
Sun, 15 Sep 2013When people ask us what car we would recommend for them, it's usually not easy to answer. To make a useful recommendation we must consider which of the numerous vehicle segments fits their needs best, and then choose one of the many vehicles offered in each segment. For some people, new cars don't meet their expectations of value, because they lose so much of it the moment they are purchased and driven off the dealer lot. For them, there's always the used-car market, where great deals can be found, but cars' histories of reliability and maintenance records - and perhaps that Certified Pre-Owned warranty - become ever-important factors playing into purchase choice.
To help out, Edmunds has done us the favor of assembling a list of the best used vehicles money can buy, covering model years 2006-2011, according to what it considers the most important criteria when shopping for used autos: reliability, safety, value and availability. That means unreliable, unsafe, super-expensive or limited-edition models don't appear on the list, but instead cars from each segment that are more likely to satisfy the general population.
There are some real goodies on the list, including but not limited to vehicles such as the capable Honda Fit, the cultish Honda Accord coupe (which can be had with a 240-horsepower V6 and a six-speed manual transmission some years), and the powerful Chevrolet Corvette. While Edmunds' choice of the Volvo C70 for best used convertible baffled us at first (not that it's a bad car), it redeemed itself by stating that the Mazda MX-5 still is an unofficial top choice if you don't require more than two seats.
LOLVO Volvo V60 video leverages the power of cats on cars
Wed, 02 Jul 2014You know what we haven't posted in a long time? A very weird, car-related video. It's high time we address this failing.
As strange videos go, this one is truly bizarre. The two-minute clip focuses on the Volvo V60 R-Design, although you're not going to be learning anything about the car. Instead, you're going to be focused on the weird narrator (and the cat decals on the windows).
It's like someone taught the Swedish Chef to speak English, but with a ridiculous accent and a script that's been fed through Google Translate. The result is a weirdly cerebral voice speaking in a manner that borders on gibberish mixed with information about the car. We're particularly fond of, "In accordance with Volvo tradition... the car... is... of course... furnished, with an inside." "Floor bibs," in reference to the floor mats, was an office favorite, as well.
