 I have not owned this car to long.  I need to sell because of landlord issues, I can not keep cars with no plates on the property.  The car is 24 years old and has the wear and tear you would expect.  The interior is in nice condition.  Few cracks on the dash, and the passenger door handle is falling off.  A few missing interior trim pieces here and there.
***odometer is not correct mileage**  odo does not work common issue on these Volvos.  Estimated mileage around 160,000 but not confirmed.  Car needs alignment will drift to right when wheel is let go.  Brakes feel a little rough (but work fine), might need resurfacing.  Engine rocks a bit when gassing,  will need engine mounts/tranny mounts.  Engine is a little rattly may be from the mounts.  Paint on the hood is faded.
The engine is strong though, car will get up any hill no problem. Starts up, New battery.  I am confident you could drive this car where ever it needs to be delivered.  Tranmission feels good shifts threw all gears and reverse no problem. All doors open and close, windows roll up and down smoothly.  I do not feel like the vehicle has any major problems, could be a daily driver with a little love.  No significant rust on this vehicle, under carriage looks good for its age.  Body is nice no major dents, but a few scratches and smudges here and there.
 I did not have a chance to drive this car many miles so all these issues are my impression from the week I was driving vehicle.  If you have any specific questions send me a message I will answer to the best of my ability.

Stolen first production Volvo P1800 recovered

Wed, 04 Sep 2013

Late last month, we told you about a 1961 Volvo P1800 that had been stolen in Sweden. The thought of losing a classic coupe to an unscrupulous thief is troubling enough, but this wasn't just any P1800 - it was the very first production example minted, and the restored red-over-white two-door was owned by the vice president of the Swedish P1800 Club to boot. Chassis Number Two was pilfered from a Stockholm lockup on either August 21 or 22, and the theft triggered an international hunt of sorts.
Fortunately, that hunt has come to a (mostly) happy ending. According to Larmtjänst AB, a non-profit organization dedicated to fighting vehicle crime in Sweden, the car was spotted by someone who had read about the missing classic. The P1800 was recovered in Hägerstensvägen, a municipality of Stockholm, after being found abandoned on the road covered with a tarp. The owner is reportedly very relieved that his Volvo is mostly intact, marred only by a broken ignition and a dirty interior.

2014 Volvo XC60 scooped before launch

Fri, 28 Dec 2012

A Chinese automotive site has snagged the first spy shots of the updated Volvo XC60, completely uncovered. While the overall profile of the vehicle remains intact, the headlights are heavily revised. Gone are the two-piece units, which featured the separate light strip between the main cluster and the grille. In place now are larger lenses, somewhat reminiscent of those found on the S60 sedan. Also updated is the grille, which gets a little wider to meet the new headlights. The grille receives more chrome, while the lower front fascia has been revised with wider openings. A pair of LED fog lights are pushed way out to the corners.
Out back, the license plate holder gets a bold chrome strip above it, and the recessed exhaust is replaced with chromed, dual exhaust outlets that have been integrated into the bottom of the rear bumper.
Inside, the instrument panel has been revised, with a large, centrally mounted speedo, featuring a digital display in the center. According to reports, this is a similar setup to that of the new V40. As such, it appears that the changes are thoughtful efforts to move the XC60 forward by incorporating the most current Volvo design elements.

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.
