Condition: UsedA vehicle is considered used if it has been registered and issued a title. Used vehicles have had at least one previous owner. The condition of the exterior, interior and engine can vary depending on the vehicle's history. See the seller's listing for full details and description of any imperfections.Seller Notes:"It was in Average shape until about 2 months ago. It had a bunch of issues at once and after fixing a few I'm giving up on it. It needs a new Alternator and Battery. It also needs to have the convertible top adjusted and have the expensive sensor that acknowledges the top is closed replaced(car beeps at you now). There is a hole on the inside lining of the top. It needs two front tire in the near future, they were out of alignment for too long. The last time I charged it, it didn't want to drive when put in gear, so there may be a mechaninical issue. The seats are leather but are worn and in poor shape. The stiching has come out in most of the passanger side seat, a little of the drivers side seat, and a spot in the back seat. There are several scuffs, tears, and scratches directly below the back window, which is shown in one picture. The front and back bumpers are scuffed and scratched in several places, and the back bumper has a cracked spot about the size of a golf ball."
I'm sorry to sell it but a bunch of issues popped up at once, so my loss is your gain. While I see a lot of women driving this car, it always seemed more masculine than most convertibles with its wide stance. It ran well until about 2 months ago, with good acceleration when you put the pedal down. It handled pretty well on turns and stopped well. It is a fun car to drive and the styling still looks good today, especially with the upgraded factory rims. The issues I ran into and why I'm selling are listed in the condition description, but I'll list them in three groups in terms of priority.
The battery*, alternator*, convertible top sensor**, and whatever mechanical issue* it has need to be looked at before this car is drivable.
The tires need to be replaced in the near future (2-3 months?) as they are worn wrong but currently in alignment and the convertible top needs to be adjusted to be functioning so you get the convertible experience.
The front and rear bumper and the seats are scratched, scrapped, and scuffed, also there is a hole in the convertible top interior liner***, if you want to improve the cosmetics, those are the problem areas.
*I was told the battery and alternator needed to be replaced by Don Beyer Volvo, they didn't ID any mechanical issue but I"'m guess there is one.
**I put the convertible top sensor in the drivable list because the car will have a bell ringing constantly until that sensor is replaced.
*** I have never seen any leaking whatsoever from the top
I think it is actually the 2.4L, but I'm not sure so I checked 2.3L. It has the upgraded Dolby Surround stereo. Power Windows and roof.
I am the third owner and I serviced it regularly at Don Beyer in Falls Church. I purchased it from my mother and I know she did the same. The original owner was a middle aged woman my mother purchased it from.
This is local pickup only. The car needs work, so it will have to be towed. Buyer will be responsible for the towing.

Carmakers, NHTSA to unveil auto-emergency braking agreement tomorrow
Wed, Mar 16 2016Happy St. Patrick's Day Eve. Tomorrow, there will be green beer, corned beef and cabbage, and automatic emergency braking for all. Weird combo, we know. But on St. Patty's we can expect an official announcement from a pact of automakers making auto-braking systems standard equipment by 2022. That's per a report from Reuters, which cites three sources familiar with the plans. Originally announced in September 2015 by 10 automakers and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the agreement is expected to be even larger when the details are unveiled tomorrow. According to Reuters, the manufacturers of 99 percent of the US domestic market's vehicles will be represented by the new agreement. It's believed that standard AEB systems could prevent thousands of accidents across the country. Expect more on the official announcement when it's made. Related Video:
Recharge Wrap-up: 10-year sentence for biodiesel fraudsters, overhead fast charging EV buses in Luxembourg
Thu, Nov 10 2016Toyota will use addressable TV advertising to target potential Prius Prime customers. By choosing to advertise in households with specific attributes, Toyota hopes to grab the attention of buyers who "see their vehicle as an extension of their consumption of advanced technology," according to Toyota Motors Sales media manager Lisa McQueen. The ad depicts a person who is skeptical of various inventions throughout history until he finds himself inside the Prius Prime. Hyundai has also used addressable TV ads for its Genesis brand. Read more at Automotive News. Two Florida men have each been sentenced to over 10 years in prison for biodiesel credit fraud. Thomas Davanzo and Robert Fedyna of Gen-X Energy Group and its subsidiary Southern Resources and Commodities were convicted of buying fuel that had already been sold with Renewable Identification Numbers, then fraudulently claiming more credits on that fuel. The scheme raked in more than $46 million, mostly in selling the fraudulent credits. Critics of the Renewable Fuel Standard point to incidents like this as a reason to oppose the program. Read more from Reuters. Volvo electric buses in Luxembourg will use Heliox Fast Charge systems. Public transport operator Sales-Lentz has ordered three of the Heliox systems that will charge the buses using pantograph (overhead wire) contacts. The chargers will be placed at end-of-route stops for opportunistic charging of the transport agency's four Volvo 7900 electric buses. The 450-kW, Wi-Fi-enabled OppCharge system automatically connects the charger to contact plates on the roofs of the vehicles, charging them in three to six minutes. Read more at Green Car Congress.

Volvo confirms unnamed US model reveal for NY show
Thu, 21 Mar 2013Tucked 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.
