My parents are the 3nd owner of this 1998 Volvo S70.  Engine still sounds great, but the car is showing it's age and millage.  The transmission in drive runs as expected for a car with 208,000 miles, but when shifted into reverse there is a dely before it kits into gear and sometimes jerks in reverse.  In forward, this doesn't seem to be the case.  Car still runs and drives well with the exception of the issue just mentined about reserse.

The paint is in nice shape for an older car.  There is a crack in the front bumper where a truck with a trailer hitch backed into it.  There was a 2nd minor fender bender to the rear, but very minor.  Outside of that, there are no major accidents or air bag deployments to our knowledge.  According to Kelly Blue Book, this car in fair condition is valued at $1,200.  The backseat leather is in decent shape as is the passenger seat.  However the driver seat has two holes in the leather and I would rate a 3 out of 10. 

The rear tires are 60% life and the front are 10% life.  New breaks and maintained well over it's life.  I am selling this car for my parents.  It is located in SUGAR HILL, GEORGIA.  You are welcome to see the car and test drive it if you email me and setup an appointment in advance. 

Cash or Paypal accepted for payment.  Title in hand.  Payment and pickup required within 48 hours or vehicle will be relisted.

Volvo Trucks makes some pretty strong brakes

Mon, 05 May 2014

Often dashcam footage from Russia shows some of the worst driving imaginable, but this is an exception. The Volvo truck driver in this video definitely earned himself a drink or two at the end of the day after making it through this potentially horrific crash. As do the folks at Volvo that engineered those brakes.
The truck driver shows some fantastic reaction time as the silver hatchback suddenly pulls out of an intersection. It looks like he only has a few yards to bring the behemoth to a stop before demolishing the little car. While it's an impressive feat, the best part of the video has to be the driver's bow when he gets out of the truck. He looks like a maestro who just finished conducting a symphony asking for a round of applause.
Scroll down to check out this truck driver's skills and see if he earns his bow afterward.

Volvo to use Oz as test bed for more Polestar models?

Tue, 25 Jun 2013

We've already told you about the slightly more awesome version of the Volvo S60 that our friends Down Under can now get their hands on. And according to Aussie site Drive.com.au, Volvo may look to the land of Oz for future testing of new, Polestar-tuned, high-performance models.
Volvo has reportedly confirmed that this S60 Polestar run will be an exercise in testing the acceptance of the Swedish tuner's presence as a proper competitor for things like BMW's M division or Mercedes-Benz's AMG. (A tall order, for sure.) "The world is watching this exercise with much interest," Volvo Cars Australia boss, Matt Braid, told Drive.com.au.
Hans Baath, Polestar Managing Director, reportedly hinted that the tuning house had already begun work on a hotter version of the V40 hatchback, but the project was scrapped in order to get the S60 program rolling. If there's success to be found here, this smaller hot hatch could be revisited, as well as a more powerful version of the XC60 crossover.

Volvo to finally replace XC90 in 2014

Wed, 16 Jan 2013

There's not a whole lot of life left in the current Volvo XC90, but it seems a replacement is on the way. According to What Car?, Volvo will launch its new flagship crossover sometime in 2014, riding on an all new platform that will eventually underpin several models in the company's range.
According to Volvo boss Hakan Samuelsson, this new architecture will eventually underpin the next-generation S60, V70, S80 and XC60, all of which will be getting mid-cycle enhancements over the next year. In speaking to What Car?, Samuelsson said that Volvo would not try to follow the paths set by BMW and Mercedes-Benz, instead focusing on "safety, elegant design and user-friendly functionality" for its next round of new cars.
The new XC90 will remain a seven-passenger vehicle and will be powered by a range of four-cylinder engines. Volvo will soon be dropping the five- and six-cylinder powertrains from its lineup.
