Up For Sale is a 2001 Volvo XC-70 with 137,775 miles. I will give you a little history of the car. I purchased the XC-70 back in Oct of 2012 for the sum of $2,680.00 from a so called dealer in Pa. named VP Auto Motor's on EBAY, That is for everyone's information. Let's just say they miss led me on the condition of the vehicle, and having paid for a sizable portion of it up front and being that a EBAY sale is in one sense a contract of purchase I stood behind my end and paid the remaining balance of the purchase. Well with that said I have put another $1,200.00 plus dollars in it to get it Md. inspected and road worthy. The vehicle has new brakes, New Battery, New Fog light fixtures, I also had to do some work to the front end / steering something about the struts and link pins to correct the steering. I have all receipts for repairs that were made. Ok, now for the kicker the vehicle still needs some work even though I have driven it over 3000 mile since putting it on the road. The vehicle as when I purchased it has only one key. The vehicle does need some more loving from a mechanic, the airbag light is on and from what I have been told it could be a sensor or a contact that needs to be cleaned under the front seat. I am only selling it shortly after buying it 3 plus months ago because I have purchased another vehicle for my mother to drive being that is what this one was for. Please feel free to ask questions or come and test drive the Volvo as that the purchase of this vehicle Is a as is purchase. I am trying to be as honest as I can about the condition and don't want to screw anyone by listing a false item such as " VP Auto Motor's ". I am willing to deliver / drive the vehicle for free of charge within 25 miles of my place of residents or willing to deliver the vehicle for $2.00 a mile up to Fifty miles from my door to yours. The car is For Sale locally so reserve the rights to cancel this listing early.

Volvo reveals V60 Cross Country ahead of LA
Wed, 05 Nov 2014Volvo is bringing a model to the Los Angeles Auto Show that isn't afraid to get a little dirty. The Swedish automaker will finally unveil its V60 Cross Country crossover, and it has confirmed that the model will be available in North American markets shortly.
The Cross Country takes Volvo's standard V60 compact wagon and injects a little more off-road capability and visual flavor into the platform. US and Canadian models will arrive with Volvo's 250-horsepower, five-cylinder engine with a standard automatic transmission and all-wheel drive. The company says the powertrain should get around 23 miles per gallon fuel economy on the combined cycle.
To be ready to go just a little bit off the beaten path, the suspension sits about 2.6-inches higher than the regular version. The body is also equipped with skid plates in the front and rear, side scuff plates, fender extensions and exhaust outlets integrated into the rear bumper. Hill Descent Control will also augment capability, as well.
Tony Nicolosi named CEO of Volvo Cars North America
Fri, 04 Oct 2013Volvo announced today that it has named Tony Nicolosi, president and CEO of Volvo Car Financial Services VCFS), as the new CEO of Volvo Cars of North America (VCNA). Nicolosi replaces John Maloney, who chose to leave due to family obligations after Volvo offered him a position in Europe.
Volvo says Nicolosi will remain president and CEO of VCFS while he assumes VCNA's top position. The Swedish automaker also says a "permanent successor [to Maloney] as President and CEO will be the subject of a later announcement."
The move comes as part of a management shakeup that's part of a "larger transformation taking place at Volvo," the automaker says.
Volvo bringing Chinese-built cars to America beginning next year
Wed, 18 Jun 2014Just because the penetration of the American automotive market by Chinese brands hasn't quite happened yet doesn't mean that Chinese-built cars are far off. According to a new report, we could very soon see long-wheelbase Volvo S60s that were assembled in the People's Republic arriving on US shores.
The report comes from Automotive News China, which cites an anonymous Volvo exec. An official Volvo spokesperson later corroborated ANC's report, although where the original source claimed that we could see the Chinese-built S60L in US dealers at some point in 2015, the company line was that a timeline hadn't been established to begin exports from the world's most populous nation.
According to Volvo, the benefit to exporting from China to the United States rather than from Sweden is the relationship between the US dollar and the Chinese yuan. Overall, it's a less tumultuous issue than the dollar-to-euro situation. By moving vehicles from China to the US, the Chinese-owned company is limiting the degree of risk it's taking with sudden currency swings.
