2006 Volvo Xc90 2.5t Sport Utility 4-door 2.5l - Very Well Preserved! on 2040-cars

Thanks for looking at my add. I am moving overseas for work in few weeks and therefore selling my Volvo that I have owned for 5 years. 

Bought it at mileage 36k when I moved to the US (at Joe Perillo dealership in Chicago), the car now has ~93k miles on it and still runs great. There were no animals in the car or smokers for the time I have owned it. 

The car was in no accidents during the whole history, although I did back up into someone at like 2 mph (black car parked diagonally behind me at kiss&fly zone at airport in the dark, I did not see it). Nevertheless, an accident that I believe is shown in the car's history. There was no damage on my car and about $400 repair on the other car (I hit his drivers' door with my rear right bumper). Only repair I had to do about 3 years ago was leaking radiator: coolant was getting mixed with engine oil (oil getting into coolant). This caused thermostat rubber to corrode, therefore the system kept cooling so engine wouldn't reach operating temperature. Had this repaired for about $1800 (full service records are in my car) and since then the car had been running without any problems. No other repairs except regular maintenance and fluid changes. Had this car checked in my shop a month ago and it's all OK - no leaks, no problems with fluids, brakes are at 70% of their life (even though brakes vibrate a bit while braking..the car was sitting for 2 weeks and when I picked up it this started, just few weeks ago), tires are at 20% of their life so will need changing eventually. If there is demand I can have them changed for ~$400 (full price is ~$750) because I have thread warranty and the tires were wearing faster than guaranteed. This would be paid extra on top of the price of the car but it can save you few hundred bucks if you decide to change tires right away (the warranty is only good for me - expires with ownership change). 

As far as the interior and exterior goes, it's looking VERY good, I have been pretty much the only person using it >>> only the driver's seat had been used. Car would be great for a family - with 3 rows of seats can fit up to 7 people (even though 3rd row is narrow). Has tinned 2nd&3rd row/trunk seats, sunroof, electric seats (only front row), easy to fit 2 bikes in the trunk (taking 2nd and 3rd row seats down). Been parked in the garage most (70%) of the time. Paint has some very light scratches as well as one scratch on the front right bumper, but nothing really visible or worth repairing.

If you have any questions please shoot me an email, I am trying to me maximally transparent so now when I'm re-reading, this add may even sound a bit conservative. Truth is this car is in a great shape and was a good servant to me, may use few minor dent repairs that are not worth doing for me (maybe not even for you since engine is OK) but I believe if you invest few hundred (esp. tires) you'll have a car that will look just perfect. It runs great already. 

Happy bidding!

Volvo shows off 345-hp S60 and V60 Polestar

Thu, 06 Feb 2014

We showed you the hot, new Volvo V60 Polestar a few months back and raved about the fact that this long-roofed family car can hit 60 miles per hour in just 4.9 seconds. Now, we're seeing it and its four-doored brother, the S60 Polestar sedan, in person for the first time.
As we told you when the V60 Polestar was unveiled, both cars are motivated by a 3.0-liter, turbocharged six-cylinder that generates 345 horsepower and 369 pound-feet of torque, with peak twist arriving between 2,800 and 4,750. Power is channeled to a rear-biased all-wheel-drive system via a six-speed automatic transmission with paddle shifters and launch control.
Both Polestar models benefit from a suspension that features Öhlins shocks, while they ride on 20-inch "bespoke" wheels. Six-cylinder Brembo calipers clamp down on 14.6-inch rotors in front, meaning these Volvos should come to a stop as quickly as they get going.

Volvo will replace C70... eventually

Tue, 05 Nov 2013

Volvo has already announced the end of production for its C70 hardtop convertible, a handsome but seriously dated offering that was last refreshed in 2010. Volvo won't be abandoning the two-door coupe-convertible market for long, though, as news out of Australia claims that a replacement, based on the striking Concept Coupe, will join the Chinese-owned, Swedish brand's ranks, although it's unclear precisely when we'll see it on the road.
"Eventually yes... as soon as possible," Hakan Samuelsson, Volvo's CEO, told the Drive, before adding, "when we are ready."
"The Coupe Concept car, we can put that into production and it will have an exposure on the brand. But at the end it's the cream on the cake and at the end you need the cake first before you put the cream on it," said Volvo's Senior Vice President of Product Strategy and Vehicle Line Management, Lex Kerssemakers.

Volvo XC40 delayed because it's too big for its own good?

Thu, 11 Jul 2013

As fuel prices rise and greenhouse gases poke holes in the ozone, big, gas-guzzling sports utility vehicles are becoming less popular as smaller, cleaner vehicles, such as crossovers, gain market share. Volvo is late to the small crossover party, though it wants to build the XC40 crossover to compete with the Land Rover Evoque. The only problem with that, Autocar reports, is that a suitable (read: small enough) platform for it is up to five years away, despite a hopeful photos of it in testing guise.
Volvo is currently developing a new platform, called SPA (Scaleable Platform Architecture), to underpin its next-generation of vehicles, such as the 2014 XC60 pictured above and the S60 sedan, which is likely the smallest vehicle that would be able to use the new platform. Furthermore, there doesn't seem to be a quick fix for the gaping hole in Volvo's lineup, and Geely, the Chinese budget car manufacturer that owns Volvo, is reportedly preparing to launch a mid-market brand that may or may not be sold outside of China.
Can't Swedish car manufacturers catch a break?
