2004 Volvo V70 2.5t Wagon- Gorgeous Turbo Charged Powerhouse Wagon on 2040-cars

Year:2004 Mileage:120826
Location:

Indianapolis, Indiana, United States

Indianapolis, Indiana, United States

Well my wife says it's time to "upgrade" to a minivan so the wagon has to go.  We bought this wagon back in 2011 from a Volvo salesman- it was his personal car.  He had all of the work done at the dealership and we have had it done there or at an independent shop that specializes in Volvos.  The car looks great and is very fast for a wagon;  you can really feel the turbocharger kick in.  The title is clear and the car is ready to drive anywhere.  Here is what you are getting:

The Good:
Great looking paint!  While there are some small scratches here and there (see photos) I have kept the paint in great condition.  I have only used Zaino products on it which has given the car a very deep gloss/shine.  No rust at all on this vehicle!

This car has awesome power for a wagon.  The turbo charger is quite nice.

Large 17" factory option wheels- really shine up nice- see photos  

Great tires: I put Bridgestone Potenza tires on it.  They are big, low profile, and fat = great traction.  No issues in the snow either as long as you put the car in the "slick pavement" setting.  Yes the car has a special setting for rain/snow. 

Leather Seats: The front ones are heated and they adjust like you would not believe.  The drivers side can memorize two set positions so multiple drivers can adjust with the push of a button.

Fold Down Third Row Seat- rear facing

Deep Tint: This is from the factory and looks great.

WeatherTech Floor Liner for the rear hatch back area-  Laser cut and made in the USA

All Synthetic fluids used in the car and K&N oil filters are used.

New Parts since I've owned it:

K&N Air Filter
Hitch
Volvo Brand Cross Bars- not pictured but they are included so you can mount bikes, kayaks, ski equipment, etc to the top of the car.
Radiator
New Tires in Oct 2012- Bridgestone Potenza with Nitrogen Fill
New Alarm System
Back in March, the oil pump went out on the expressway and the engine threw a rod, so it was replaced with a used one with about 85,000 miles on it.  When this was done, all lines were replaced and fluids were flushed.
New Throttle Body
Water pump
Timing Belt
Motor Mounts
Brakes
Turbo Rebuilt
Vapor Box and all lines involved
HID Headlight 
CEM Unit
New Wiper Blades all Around: Front, Rear, and Headlight- yes it has wipers for the headlights!

Issues with the Car:
- My daughter decided to use the CD player as a piggy bank.  I've talked to an installer and they said this is common (they see 1-2 of that issue a week lol) and usually the unit just needs to be removed and the coins shook out.  I've priced them on ebay and they usually run about $40 dollars so worst case scenario is getting one on here.

-About once a week one of the headlights will go out, you just toggle the switch and it comes back on.  This has been happening since I bought it and I never had it looked into.

- Once a year it has had a hard time starting and then the check engine light comes on.  I have taken it both to the dealer one year and an independent shop the next and each time they said it was just a dirty wiring harness.  Once they cleaned it everything was fine.  

- I only have one key and the "switch blade" feature doesn't work on it. 

- The driver's side rear seat has a crease in it from having a baby car seat latched in it for so long.  It has been getting better over time with it out, but I imagine that will always be in there to some degree.  See photo

- The rear bumper cover is faded and scratched.  I have tried all sorts of products to help it but they have not helped much.  See photo

- The hatch area does have some dog hair in it.  I took a lint roller to it and that helped alot but it will probably take a couple of more applications to get it all out.  It's short, white dalmatian hairs... :)

Great looking car and I'm selling it below blue book value.  If you have any questions please feel free to ask, but do so before you buy the car!

Car will also come with:
Volvo Cross Bars
Extra K&N Oil Filter
Light Bulb Set- All light bulbs for the back of the car- I ordered these when they were on sale and they were never needed.

All sales are final 
Car must be picked up- I will not ship.
Sold As Is
I have done my best to describe the car.  Please ask questions.
I will probably put about 10 more miles on it before it is sold as I'm going to take it for one last wash before it goes.

Volvo confirms unnamed US model reveal for NY show

Thu, 21 Mar 2013

Tucked into the press release for the "display debut" of the Volvo V60 Plug-In Hybrid at the New York Auto Show, Volvo snuck in a single line announcing that it will also be introducing a new model for the North American market. As much as we'd love to see the svelte V40 on American roads, we're pretty sure the automaker is looking to fill its US station wagon void with the V60.
The 2014 Volvo V60 is part of a comprehensive lineup update that was unveiled earlier this month in Geneva, and it would give Volvo dealers a conventional wagon (not including the XC70) for the first time since the V70 and V50 were killed off. We'll still be keeping our fingers crossed for the stylish V40 hatchback or the fuel-efficient V60 diesel hybrid, but we have to wait until next week to find out for sure.

Volvo Polestar celebrates STCC title with Black R edition S60, V60 and XC60

Sat, 21 Dec 2013

The relationship between Volvo and Polestar was forged - and forges deeper still - on the racetrack, where the latter fields the former's tin-top entries in the STCC, WTCC and V8 Supercars. And based on their success together in touring-car racing, Volvo has had Polestar amp up a number of its production road cars. What we have here is the latest.
This year Volvo and Polestar dominated the Scandinavian Touring Car Championship, taking both the drivers' and manufacturers' titles. So to celebrate, Polestar has rolled out a new Black R package for the S60 sedan, V60 wagon and XC60 crossover.
The package includes an upgrade to 329 horsepower for the T6 engine and to 230 hp for the D5, and further enhances with special wheels, a dropped suspension, special sport seats and more. Unfortunately the package is only being offered in Sweden, but you can scope out the details in the press release below and the photos in the gallery above.

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.
