Rare Vovlo V70 R Wagon 4-door 2.5l 2004 on 2040-cars
Winter Park, Florida, United States
|
This Volvo V70 R is a very well taken care of station wagon, owned by the former general sales manager of the Volvo Store in Winter Park. Needless to say, this car has been maintained to the exacting standards of a Volvo Expert. The interior is in impeccable condition, and there are few V70 R's that have been preserved in such high condition. The V70 R comes equipped with Volvo's own 4C multi-mode suspension, allowing for both sport and comfortable suspension selections. The V70R will feel just as comfortable getting groceries as it will out on a track doing 120mph. Brembo Brakes are standard issue on ever V70R, because the 2.5L Turbocharged Straight 5 Engine was simply too powerful for standard brakes. The Wall Street Journal says that with "79% more power than the base V70 wagon, Its current V70 R is the fastest Volvo wagon yet. Our tester sprinted from zero to 60 mph in 5.5 seconds -- a hair quicker than a Porsche Boxster. And on the practical side, it was the only car out of the five that could carry our TV box without requiring us to fold the rear seats first." "Seeking to lure speed-crazy guys with kids, car makers are trying to transform the dowdy old family hauler into something new: the manwagon. In perhaps the most extreme sign of the industry's horsepower race, some of these wagons are quicker than a Porsche Boxster. They have monstrous engines, giant brakes, track-ready suspensions and race-car-style seats -- plus prices up to $30,000 higher than the base versions. But unlike a sports car, these wagons can fit strollers and coolers in the back."
For more than 43 years, Noel's has been the reliable source for remanufactured Mercedes Benz longblock engines. *Picture of engines are photos of actual longblocks remanufactured at Noels. No advanced core charge, complimentary installation kit, and our 4-year or 50,000 mile warranty.
Noel's Rebuilt engines are built to maximize performance and longevity. All valves used in Noel's engines have under .0003" runout to increase compression, and create a smooth idle. Every engine is taken completely apart and inspected. All cranks at Noel's are standard, unground cranks. New rods are statically balanced by weight and must pass a straightness test of .001". New pistons are properly clearanced into the existing block and are matched to a replaced rod. Block and head decking is done to a perfect finish, and cams are polished into a "Racing Style" finish to decrease resistance. Many of our engines are built with parts that we have designed and fabricated ourselves to increase the longevity and horsepower output of our engines. The majority of our engines have tweaked cams that allow them to respond instantly and run smoothly in the low end. All seals within our longblocks are brand new, and every wear surface inside of the engine is pre-lubed so that after installation and insertion of oil into the engine, it will run in the original, pristine condition that it was manufactured to. It would be almost impossible to find a new factory engine with a lower leak down than our remanufactured engines. We do not use 'general' engine building techniques for our engines. Every engine that enters Noels has a specific set of problems that we have diagnosed, and we use our experience from building race engines to improve upon the failure points in every troubled engine. Many of our customers have said that "With a Noel Engine, My car runs BETTER than it was new!" Say goodbye to oil leaks, pesky electronic codes, and poor idling, and say hello to more horsepower in your car than ever before! We believe in taking the time to inspect new parts, and build the engine right the first time. Mercedes has New Mercedes has Reman  |

First production Volvo S60 Polestar shown off
Thu, 18 Apr 2013With the Volvo S60 Polestar going on sale in Australia this June, Volvo has finally released images and specs for the production version of the performance sedan. While no official build number has been announced, one image of the car's steering wheel shows a serial number plaque that says "No. 000/100" indicating that production will likely be limited to just 100 units in Australia. The press release states that the Australia run of Polestar-tuned S60s is a "pilot project" and that other potential markets are "under investigation."
Although it looks very similar to the S60 Polestar Concept we first saw at the LA Auto Show last year, the production version of the car sports a few changes. Visually, the front and rear fascias have been slightly modified from the concept car, as have the matte-black wheels. Inside, we see a different steering wheel that adds the aforementioned build sequence plaque but loses the suede leather accents, and there is also a sportier looking shift lever with a chrome handle that features a Polestar logo.
As for performance figures, rather than the 508-horsepower of the S60 Polestar Concept, the production version will be limited to 350 hp and more than 368 pound-feet of torque, which is still an improvement of about 25 hp and at least 14 lb-ft over a 2013 S60 R-Design. Polestar also tuned the six-speed automatic transmission and Haldex all-wheel-drive system for optimal performance leading to a top speed of 155 miles per hour and a 0-62 mph time of 4.9 seconds. The production S60 Polestar will still get suspension, brake and aerodynamic upgrades.
Volvo V40 Cross Country gets the all-wheel drive it deserves
Mon, 29 Sep 2014Want a rugged Volvo wagon? Gothenburg has two kinds to offer: there's the XC crossovers on the one hand and ruggedized wagons on the other. As we reported last month from the unveiling of the new XC90 in Sweden, Volvo plans on offering more Cross Country wagons in the future. But in the meantime, it has upgraded the existing V40 Cross Country with some key enhancements - not the least of which is the long-awaited addition of all-wheel drive.
Powertrain upgrades for Volvo's smallest soft-roader include the new T5 engine (a 1.7-liter turbo four producing 245 horsepower), an eight-speed automatic transmission and all-wheel drive. The new powertrain is not only more capable, but also more environmentally friendly than the old T5 it replaces.
The enhanced V40 Cross Country launches in Europe mid-fall before being rolled out in other markets in the following months, but unfortunately the United States is not among them as the V40 is not offered Stateside in any configuration, which is a shame.
These are the top luxury cars bought by people entering the segment for the first time
Fri, 25 Jul 2014Let's say you just got a big promotion at work or the kids are moving out of the house, and you finally have some extra money. You decide to blow it all at once and treat yourself by upgrading your ride. Naturally, you look to a luxury automaker. What do you choose?
Models like the Audi A3 and Mercedes-Benz CLA-Class may be tailor-made to introduce buyers to the premium segment, but a new study finds that they don't garner the highest rates of non-luxury customer conquests. It turns out that a Volvo leads among folks moving up to a premium brand, and it isn't even one that's made anymore, at that.
A recent study by Polk and IHS Automotive looked at what models had the highest rates of buyers upgrading from a non-luxury segment. The information comes from its new vehicle registration data through April 2014. All ten top models boasted conquest rates of over 50 percent, but the Volvo C70 led the field with 68.01 percent of its customers coming from non-premium brands.
