WE LOVE OUR VINTAGE VOLVOS HERE!!!

We’ve always specialized in the older Volvos. Over the years we’ve sold almost 280 of them here on eBay. They are getting rather hard to find even in the Washington, DC area that has always been a hotbed for them. And we’re tickled pink and be able to offer this one up just in time for Christmas! This auction is for the nicest 1992 Volvo 740 Turbo Wagon we've ever had in the ten years we've been doing this on eBay! Here is just some of what this incredible find has going for it:

IT HAS LOW ONE OWNER MILES!!

1992 WAS THE LAST MODEL YEAR OF THE 740!

IT IS DC INSPECTED THROUGH 2015!

IT IS A VERY HEAVILY OPTIONED CAR!

IT PERFORMS BEAUTIFULLY AND LOOKS SUPER!

AND IT COMES WITH OUR 100% MONEY BACK WARRANTY!

And, to make this auction interesting, we are putting this rare Classic Sport Wagon up here in a

NO RESERVE AUCTION!!!

NO RESERVE means just that. We pride ourselves in honest auctions and ALWAYS start our bidding at ONE PENNY! Rare Volvo Turbo Wagons in this kind of condition aren’t easy to find and interest an awful lot of people! This Volvo is one of those rare auctions that don’t have an untouchable reserve or stratospheric buy it now price. Any bid you make might be the last one. So please be extra serious when bidding. You bidders are going to set the price in this auction, not us!
And, to make this a very safe bet for you, you have 50 miles to drive it. If you can honestly show it has been misrepresented, we’ll happily refund you your money!
Recently we’ve had to start requiring that our bidders have a Paypal account to bid. We’ve regretfully had to do this because of the sharp increase in deadbeat, non-paying, bidders since eBay has changed their feedback policy. We still ask that zero feedback bidders and bidders with no recent account activity contact us before bidding. If you don’t have a Paypal account and wish to bid, please contact us so we can add you to our bidding exemption list.
PLEASE take the time to read the whole description and the Terms section after it. 95% of the questions we get on our vehicles can be answered by simply reading the description and studying the pictures we include. We get very worried when we see that bidders aren’t reading our descriptions because it makes us wonder what other important details they've missed. VERY few dealers take the time we do to give complete descriptions simply so that our bidders can make educated decisions and not be surprised when they pick up their new cars. Work with us here and at least read what we took the time to write.

245 740 745 960 760GLE 760GL 240GL s70 960 530 535 540 330 325 325i

We’re one of eBay’s top sellers of older cars and trucks. Normally we specialize in older Mercedes Diesels and Diesel trucks, Geo Metros, and classic Volvos. Basically we like listing the interesting cars people like as opposed to the cars people are forced to drive.
One thing about our auctions is that we’re one of the very rare dealers that lists everything we have in true no reserve auctions where the bidding starts at one penny! Other sellers hate us because they look foolish with their astronomical buy it now pricing but our buyers love us because we let them set the final selling prices!

Volvo History Lesson
Historically, the Volvo 740 and 740 Turbo cars are serious keepers. This is NOT your standard stodgy Volvo! Dead stop. Jam on the brake. Step on the gas and spin up the turbo. Feel the rear wheels start to smoke and then launch. You can only smile and say; “Oh, yeah! I just went from sheep to Wolf!” That’s the way these cars made you feel when new. And this one is so crisp it still inspires the same emotion. It is not that this car is fast. But the world just seems to spin a bit quicker when driving it.
This exact model is pretty much my favorite Volvo of all of them. All that Volvo practicality and comfort plus the ability to make the driver’s of new sports cars wonder why you’re STILL filling their rear view mirror! Life couldn’t be better!

The 740 Turbos proved that Volvo could produce a serious luxury sport vehicle that could compete with the BMW 5-series and Mercedes in the European Grand Touring market. And this, being a final year 1992 model, was the best of the breed! While the Turbocharged 740 wagon outperformed all the other wagons in the market what was really interesting was that the 740 wagon was proved to handle much better than the competition and their own 740 turbo sedan because of the downward force on the body due to the long roof line.
The 740’s are also hands down the safest and most reliable cars out there. Even now, 22 years later, they still return excellent fuel economy and are easily the most inexpensive car in the industry to maintain and own. The other cars that it competed against when new have all gone to the junkyards by now. Volvos last pretty much forever and the only difficult thing is trying to find one that is as nice and cherry as this one. Mom got her family wagon and Dad got a car that kept the testosterone levels high. Put all this together in a full family wagon that can carry an enormous amount of cargo, you have a very special sports wagon that is still very competitive and a hoot to drive even by today’s standards!
But, in all seriousness, these cars are getting VERY hard to acquire. There were always more 240's out there than 740s and 940's. But the 740 and 940 models appealed to more family buyers because they were less "truck-ish" than the 240's. Because of this, and their flawless reliability, 20+ years down the road there are VERY few of them left in this kind of condition. The majority of the ones we see at auction are at the end of their lives. And, of the few survivors like this, most of their owners wouldn't consider letting them go. So the values are going up as the supply decreases. If you're remotely serious about getting one of these older Turbo Volvos jump on a nice one like this while they are still remotely affordable. Don't be sitting there ten years from now regretting passing up on them when they were under $10K.

The exterior of this 740 sport wagon is in excellent overall condition. The gold paint is looking very nice and doesn’t show how old it is. Being gold it is a difficult color to photograph in sunlight but it is pretty obvious to us that it loved in a garage. If this car had sat outside the clear coat would be peeling and the paint faded. The body is rust free to start and mostly just has the little nicks and scratches you’d expect to see on a 22-year old car. All the trim is present as well! The lenses are all good along with all the glass. The factory roof rack is looking good though the new owner will want to climb up there and clean in all the nooks and crannies with a toothbrush. It was 25 degrees on the day I was vacuuming it out and too cold for me to clean up the roof.
The winning bidder here is going to drive a really nice family wagon home!

We always like to show some closer in pictures of our cars so you can get in idea of just how nice they are. There is nothing but good to see on this classic wagon!

Here is the sticker showing it is Washington, DC inspected through mid-March, 2015!

Here you can see how nice the proper period Volvo Alloy rims are and what the tread is like on the tires. The tires are not new but all have very decent tread on them. But look how sweet those pesky fender lips are after 22 years!

We’re not into hiding anything so here you can see the condition of the underbody!

Both our service manager and myself put about 100 trouble free miles on this Volvo. It is an absolute BLAST to drive! I’m crying that I’m not financially able to keep it. We’re used to driving Volvos and really notice it when one has considerably more power and better handling. The turbocharged engine is much more responsive than the standard non-turbo engines. Even when you get up around 80 mph the car just keeps pulling and pulling even harder. We have zero doubts about it being able to drive cross-country if needed. We’ll show this beauty off and let it speak to you itself!

Everything about this final year ’92 740 Turbo Estate screams quality, pure class and luxury, and longevity! No one makes a car to this degree of quality and simplicity anymore or ever will again. It’s rare to see them in this kind of condition AND also in a NO RESERVE auction! Here’s your chance to own one!

For a 22 year old non-smoking interior we were very pleased! Pictures do not lie! The dark tan almost brown leather seats are all in very nice condition! There is very little abnormal wear showing beyond the one sizable wear area on the left side of the driver’s seat back. This is actually not hard to repair with a matching leather patch sewn in. Beyond this we only see the normal wear anyone would expect to see. What any kind of older leather seats need most is some leather treatment to soften the leather and then a little touch up dye. The front seats are heated and manually adjustable. This is really a beautifully kept interior for its age!

This 740 wagon is as heavily optioned (and as expensive) as was available at the time. Even down to the heated power mirrors. The only options it didn’t have was the third seat and the front seats weren’t power (though I will have to check to see if that was an option on the 740’s).
The dash area is in the same excellent condition as the rest of the car. The dash itself looks great. All the gauges work including the clock! All the power windows work along with the wiper on the rear window. The only window issue I noticed was that the right front passenger window works on the door but not the main console. I couldn’t get the cruise control to work (less than 25% of them do though fixes are usually easy). This 740 also had a two-stage sunroof that has the separate powered vent panel as well as the full sunroof. This was one of the first Volvos that had this. It is also a model with the driver’s side SRS airbag. The stock stereo works and sounds great and the LEDs are very bright. The power antenna is working (rare!) though the speaker on the driver’s door is missing. The Volvo automatic climate control system works fine. To the best of my knowledge the AC works though it is way too cold to get it to kick in with this type of early computerized climate control system. Everything looks very nice and there is not a whole lot to go wrong here. Even the headliner is looking super! Nice headliners on older Volvos are rare to see because they were easy to tear when loading large square items and the adhesive holding them usually failed after 15 years or so. We have no doubts that the new owner is really going to like everything about this Volvo!

This 22-year old Volvo has ONLY 122K original one owner miles! This is impossible miles to find on one of these cars. People paid a lot of money to buy them new and they bought them to drive them. As reliable and enjoyable as these cars are to own, these days they are hard to find with less than 230K miles on them. Some of the ones we’ve seen at auction have well over 300K on them. That’s why finding such a rare model as this one that IS one owner AND has such low mileage is going to be the find of a lifetime for the winning high bidder there. This car’s been driven an average of only 5500 miles per year. The national average is 15K miles. That’s why you’re not going to find another one like this maybe ever.

The original manual is included though, regretfully, no service records. Being that it is a long term one owner vehicle we aren’t that worried about them not being there. You can also see that we got a large number of keys with the car. This is also rare as we’re lucky to get two most of the time.

Look at this SWEET, clean hatch area! No, it doesn’t have the third seat. Volvo wagons traditionally carry the same, if not more, than load than a small pickup truck. The key thing about this model compared to the older 240’s is that the 740 wagons have the 60/40-split rear seat that greatly increases the car’s versatility. The struts on the hatch door are old and not holding in the very cold weather.

This is an outstanding interior considering it’s age and the mileage on the car! Family Volvos, since they last forever and are so darn useful, normally get hard use from their owners and it is very RARE to find an interior in this kind of condition!

Under the hood is the famous Volvo 2.3-liter EFI Intercooled Turbo Charged engine. This is one of the great turbo engines ever made. Because the Volvo build quality is so high, their turbo motors will last as long as the regular ones. This one starts and runs great with no leaking or smoking! This engine is reliable and very inexpensive to maintain! It gives great torque and is still rated to return excellent fuel economy even by today’s standards! You can see how clean everything is!

The automatic transmission with overdrive shifts great in all conditions. One thing I did notice was that the overdrive switch is broken. The car shifts fine in and out of overdrive, but with the broken switch, it can’t be taken out of overdrive manually. This is a $75 part and rarely ever used so we didn’t address it. While we didn’t get the service records for this car, it has been our experience that these cars do not survive 22 years in this kind of condition if they haven’t been properly maintained.

And here is the VIN plate just so everyone can do their due diligence!

If you have EVER been in the market for a super sweet Turbo Volvo with minimal issues and miss out on this NO RESERVE auction, you MIGHT be tempted to do this!

Because there is only going to be one lucky high bidder here in this NO RESERVE auction! Everyone else is going to be very disappointed because they missed on this extremely clean, low mileage, one owner 1992 Volvo 740 Turbo Sport Wagon!

So don’t be like this guy!

Run and place your bids Early!

And please bid high, bid often, and bid in confidence!

Because THIS rare Swedish turbo sport wagon awaits the lucky high bidder! And you know you’re NOT going to see another one of these here in a NO RESERVE auction very often (unless it is us selling it!)!!!

(everything you need to know about bids, warranties, fees, and delivery!)

PLEASE keep reading!

Or forever hold your peace (‘cause it’s not our fault if you don’t read them)!

PLEASE READ THIS IMPORTANT INFORMATION CAREFULLY PRIOR TO PLACING YOUR BID. THE MAJORITY OF YOUR QUESTIONS WILL BE ANSWERED HERE!

THIS IS A REAL AUCTION. YOU ARE NOT BIDDING TO LOOK AT THE VEHICLE OR FOR RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL.
YOU’RE ALSO NOT BIDDING TO WIN A VEHICLE SO YOU CAN TAKE IT TO YOUR MECHANIC AFTER THE FACT FOR THEM TO TELL YOU IF YOU SHOULD HAVE BOUGHT IT.
YOU ARE BIDDING TO BUY AND TAKE DELIVERY OF THE VEHICLE LISTED ABOVE
IF YOU HAVE QUESTIONS OR WISH TO VIEW THE VEHICLE BEFORE YOU BUY, PLEASE DO SO BEFORE YOU PLACE YOUR BID. WE WILL TRY TO SHOW ANYTHING TO ANYBODY BY APPOINTMENT DEPENDING ON WHERE WE HAVE THE VEHICLE STORED!
AFTER YOU HAVE WON THE AUCTION IT IS TOO LATE TO ASK QUESTIONS, HEM AND HAW, ASK YOUR SPOUSE, OR ROB THE QUICKIE MART TO GET THE MONEY!
A $500.00 DEPOSIT IS REQUIRED WITHIN 48 HOURS OF THE AUCTIONS ENDING (EITHER BY PAYPAL, BANK WIRE TRANSFER, OR MONEY ORDER). FULL PAYMENT IS DUE WITHIN 10 DAYS UPON DELIVERY OR BEFORE THE VEHICLE IS SHIPPED.
AFTER 10 DAYS, IF WE HAVE NOT RECEIVED YOUR FULL PAYMENT, AND OTHER ARRANGEMENTS HAVE NOT BEEN MADE, WE WILL RE-LIST THE VEHICLE AND YOU WILL FORFEIT YOUR DEPOSIT.

O.K., all that being said in loud print, we’re the nicest, most understanding people on the planet and want to work with everyone to make their purchase a happy, comfortable one. We understand fully that buyers have jobs, families, responsibilities and distances to travel. The one thing we’re big on is communication. As long as buyers keep us apprised of what is going on with their plans then we’re happy. Please understand that, as stated above in the auction, we would like vehicles picked up within ten days of the auction’s end. This isn’t because we like making buyers jump through hoops. Vehicles that don’t get picked up prevent us from bringing more cars into our lot to offer up for sale. Vehicles that aren’t picked up within 12 days will incur a $20 per day storage charge. As of February 1, 2011, we can no longer be nice and absorb storage fees for buyers after the pickup deadlines. In this recession our profits are way down and we’ve noticed more buyers announcing to us AFTER the auctions that they expect us to hold cars for them gratis an extra 2-3 weeks. We’re making very little money on eBay offering cars in true no reserve auctions and the storage fees we’re charged remain the same regardless of what something sells for. So, if you intend to delay on picking up your vehicle, expect to receive a storage bill. We’re NOT going to start selling cars here with higher buy it now prices that punish all buyers because of a few people Please show just as much willingness to work with us as we do with you!

eBay’s New Feedback System
As many know, eBay’s new feedback system doesn’t allow sellers to give buyers anything but positive feedback regardless of what they say about us. Being a long time, dedicated, eBay Seller that specializes in vehicles that average 24 years old, even the eBay Motors Support Staff tells us that it is going to be impossible for us to maintain a perfect record. They tell us that we’re easy targets for feedback extortion and nasty things of that nature simply because older vehicles are the most difficult to describe with 100% accuracy.
As always, we continue to offer vehicles here represented as honestly as we possibly can without bankrupting ourselves having them checked out or having every flaw addressed. Please understand that we’ll own a vehicle for a few days and write a description based on our opinions of it. Having a buyer own it for 3 months, have mechanics take it apart, drive it for several thousand miles and then judge our description based on their greater experience is rather unfair but does happen. Generally, whenever we might receive something less than positive feedback, it is an indication that a buyer has shown an unwillingness to either let us know about an issue, or a refusal on their part to exercise their option to return a vehicle that they feel might have been misrepresented.
We know that the vast majority of buyers are reasonable and know that there is always a risk in buying an older used car long distance from words and pictures and that there are always differences in opinions based on personal experiences. In a world where a dealer is more than willing to take back a car and refund the purchase price for misrepresentation it is actually very difficult to receive negative feedback though it does happen. This reflects more on the integrity of the buyer than the seller. Feedback abuse, extortion, and/or disputes will be adjudicated in the West Virginia Court system.

Vehicle Shipping
Shipping arrangements/charges are the responsibility of the buyer. We’re a used car dealership and NOT a shipping company ourselves. So PLEASE don’t ask us to obtain a shipping quote for you. Again, this is YOUR responsibility as a buyer and easy enough for you to obtain. If you’re serious about a car you should get your own quotes and not trust one obtained for you. Take the time to do your due diligence on shipping. A simple Google search will find you over 100 companies to choose from. Shipping is usually cheaper in the long run than flying in yourself to pick up your vehicle. One firm that our buyer’s have had a lot of success with is Mike at Safeway Auto Transport. His number is 800-453-6334. We strongly recommend NOT hiring United Road Services regardless of what they quote you. We’ve had nothing but problems the few times we’ve been forced to deal with them. We’d almost rather refund your deposit and cancel the sale than deal with them.

Please read the following carefully

Dealership Information

After having been Amoco Auto in Washington, DC for 21 years, we’ve transitioned over to being American Export Pre-Owned Auto. Our new address is 736B Williamsport Pike, Martinburg, W V 25401. American Export is a licensed used Motor Vehicle Dealership in West Virginia for automobiles. All sales conform to the State of West Virginia Motor Vehicle laws. By bidding, buyers agree that any legal arbitration will take place in the West Virginia Court system.

Viewing Vehicles/Test Drives

While our physical address is in Martinburg, for logistical reasons we usually have the vehicles we auction stored in other locations. Most commonly our vehicles are stored in the Northern Virginia area to better accommodate buyers flying into either Dulles International or Reagan National airports or shippers traveling the I-95 corridor. Generally 95% of buyers opt to pick up their vehicle from an off site location closer to the main transportation hubs.
Because all the vehicles we list here are in no reserve auctions we do NOT offer test drives. While this might sound offputting, please understand that, in a no reserve auction, a vehicle is technically sold the instant the first bid is placed upon it. We take our eBay business very seriously and will not betray the trust of those who have entrusted their bids to us. Even we don’t drive cars up for auction unless it is absolutely necessary to take it to a service or stoage facility. This policy protects vehicles for whoever the high bidder is going to be and we will not risk the condition of a vehicle for someone who only wants to see if they might (maybe) make a bid. Test drives are designed for more of a traditional retail buy it now/high reserve environment. Not the no reserve wholesale auctions we do.

Temporary License Plates

As a West Virginia dealer we can provide temporary tags to assist with the drive home. The West Virginia Temporary Tag is good for 60 days and can be issued to buyers with proper identification and proof of insurance. The fee for a temporary tag is $100 but it is good for a full 60 days after purchase.

For both in and out of state buyers:

$50.00 Administrative processing fee

This fee IS non-negotiable and non-refundable.
THIS FEE APPLIES TO EVERY AUCTION REGARDLESS OF WHO THE BUYER IS. EVEN DEALERS MUST PAY THIS FEE! This fee covers the title reassignment, reporting costs, and paperwork maintenance fees every dealer incurs when selling a car. Because all our auctions are No Reserve, we are never guaranteed to make anything on a vehicle (and quite often don’t) yet still incur the same costs. This is why this fee is disclosed and added onto the back end. Before complaining, please note that the vast majority of dealers offering cars on eBay at high Buy It Now pricing or reserves still charge a similar fee even though their profits are guaranteed.

Payment Types Accepted:
We will accept Paypal for the deposit ONLY! Please do not try to pay in full using PayPal! Balances are accepted via Cash on Delivery in person, Certified Check, Bank wire transfer, or Postal Money Order. These are the ONLY accepted forms of payment. Please do NOT offer us chickens, children, credit cards, or other items. Please don't ask us to set up payment plans or to allow you to pay us Tuesday for a hamburger today.

By bidding on this or any of our auctions you agree to our terms of sale and, you also agree that if you are the winning bidder and do not contact us or send a deposit within 48 hours, we reserve the right to re-list the vehicle and/or sell it to the next highest bidder, and report you to eBay as a "Non-Paying Bidder" in accordance with eBay’s Unpaid Item Policy

IF YOU’RE TOTALLY NEW TO THE EBAY AUTOMOTIVE BUYING PROCESS, PLEASE DROP US AN EMAIL BEFORE YOU BID

We do not want to discourage anyone from bidding, only to verify that you are serious and to answer any questions you might have about the process! Buying a car on eBay for the first time can be exciting, scary, and confusing all at the same time. We want to help make it as easy as possible for you and answer any questions you might have. Zero Feedback bidders, according to eBay rules, cannot be blocked, but if you have zero feedback and do not contact us before bidding, we do have the option to cancel your bid. We rarely ever do this but if we notice that you’re bidding on 15 other cars at the same time as ours we might wonder about your level of commitment to our no reserve auction. We take our eBay sales seriously and go to great lengths to protect the trust buyers place in us.

ABOUT OUR DESCRIPTIONS & VEHICLES First off, the cars we list average 25 years old! THEY ARE NOT NEW OR ANYWHERE NEAR IT! If a car has been sitting for more than a year or two not being driven much, then the chances are very good that many parts will start wearing out quickly once a new owner starts to put a lot of miles on it in a short period of time. This is not something a seller can predict or be held accountable for
Descriptions are based on our basic inspections of the vehicle. Descriptions of cosmetic condition are based on our opinion of what we see and may differ from your personal opinion. We have worked with hundreds of vehicles and base our comments on comparison and the age of the vehicle. A vehicle that is described as "very nice", "Excellent", "beautiful", etc, is described that way based on similar vehicles of that age and mileage. Some buyers are “experts” on some vehicles while we are not. These buyers might be comparing our cars to the totally perfect, mint condition, 250K mile, show car they own or have owned in the past and be very anal retentive. If you are this type of buyer, buying a car online that you can’t inspect in person might not be the right thing for you because nothing will ever meet up to your standards. No used car is 100% perfect, no matter how well it was cared for. Remember that blemishes or issues may exist that we have not noted. We do NOT examine every vehicle under a microscope, so small dings, scratches, chips, paint fade, windshield chips, washer motors, bushings, defrosters, loose trim, previous rust or damage repairs, rust, missing trim, loose headliners, missing radio buttons, etc. may not be noted, and we will not discount a vehicle because something like this is not noted in the description. Because we offer all our vehicles in no reserve auctions we are NOT in a position to have them extensively gone through by certified mechanics or body and paint experts to assess their complete mechanical and structural condition. If we notice something is wrong with a vehicle in the short time we have it before we list it we will have that issue addressed or disclose it in the description. After a vehicle is purchased and then put under a microscope by the buyer after the fact doesn’t mean we knew of, or will take responsibility for, flaws that we were not aware of when listing the vehicle. Issues we were not aware of can’t affect feedback. Please don’t tell us after the fact that we HAD to know of this or that flaw. We disclose what we’re aware of and don’t play those games. We also may neglect to mention a cosmetic flaw that is clearly visible in the pictures. Please look at all of the pictures carefully, as they are part of the vehicles description and ask questions if you have them.
Unless otherwise noted in the description, the vehicle is in running, drivable condition, although we can never make any guarantees nor do we warranty any vehicle to pass a state inspection in ANY state unless noted otherwise in the auction description. Even then, if a vehicle has just passed a West Virginia or Virginia inspection, this doesn’t mean it will pass one from another state. Our return policy covers misrepresentation of the vehicle. We will not refund a purchase price or take back a vehicle just because you have buyer’s remorse or it doesn’t pass your state inspection or your personal mechanic’s inspection after you have taken delivery! Also, be warned, if you purchase ANY older used car and then take it to a new car dealer for an assessment, expect a $2000 estimate regardless of how nice it is. New car dealers are out to screw you fixing older vehicles! We have seen dealers give $2500 estimates for what turned out to be $78 repairs! Don’t moan to us if this happens. The cars we list are generally low tech and any inexpensive garage can work on them for much less.
Concerns and/or issues that we are not aware of may exist with this vehicle (including but not limited to mechanical and/or cosmetic) that are not listed in the description. We make every effort to fully disclose any major mechanical issues we find with a vehicle (engine, transmission, safety), but other issues may and probably still exist. Remember this is an older USED vehicle and will have blemishes and or problems that are normal for the age and mileage or common on that particular vehicle. (Please keep in mind that some cars have inherent issues...ie: Neons all have bad head gaskets, Taurus’ have bad transmissions, older convertibles tend to have some dampness and mildew, etc. These issues may exist now or in the future with the vehicle you are purchasing. We don't build them, we just sell them! Examples are (but not limited to) dings, scratches, etc, trim pieces that are not in original condition, and/or but not limited to features/options that do not operate or maintenance that might be required. Lack of cleanliness is not a defect!
Please use common sense before asking us silly questions like if a car has been in a flood, a major accident, or if the title is clear. We are very upfront in our descriptions and disclose everything we know about a car in it. It is insulting to us that someone would think we would violate federal law and not disclose that a car has sat on the bottom of the Gulf of Mexico.
Our descriptions, including vehicle features, are listed as accurately as possible, although we are not responsible for typographical errors in the listing. We cannot/will not guarantee systems like Air Conditioning. A vehicle’s air conditioning system may operate fine when we check the vehicle and then not when you come and pick it up. This happens if a system has a small leak that we have no way of knowing about, especially when a vehicle sits. The same thing applies to stereos. Many aftermarket digital stereos are difficult to operate without manuals and we’re not in the habit of checking the operation of CD players or changers. We will not reimburse for or perform any air conditioning system repair on any vehicle, even if the system is listed as working and it does not when you pick up the vehicle. This also applies to power options (windows, locks, seats, mirrors, radios, climate control, entertainment systems, etc)
Being that these are used vehicles, not all original equipment is always included with the vehicle. Items including, but not limited to, extra keys or fobs, owners manuals, new car smell, spare tires (jacks, wheel tools), remotes, CD changer magazines, and floor mats, may not be included with the vehicle. The seller will not pay for these items if they are not there, or remove them from another vehicle. Most of these items can be purchased from a dealer, auto parts store, or on eBay cheaply.
Any issue either currently present or occurring in the future, whether disclosed in the listing or not, will be sole responsibility of the buyer, and the seller will NOT reimburse for any expenses incurred, or discount the purchase price! We will gladly provide estimates to perform minor repairs if you wish us to. Remember that just about ANY mechanic can find SOMETHING wrong with ANY used car. Given time and mileage, something is bound to need fixing or maintenance. We do NOT respond well to people trying to trade positive feedback in return for us fixing their car for them. By bidding, you agree to accept responsibility for buying an older, USED car! Feedback extortion (no matter how nicely it is phrased) is a crime, both in court and with eBay! We take our business and reputation seriously and will go to court to protect it.
Please use common sense when determining if you will drive your new vehicle home. A 25-year old car with 180,000 miles, even in the best of shape, is still 25 years old and still has 180,000 miles. Many of these vehicles may have never made a long trip, or have not been driven far in several years. Older cars with very low mileage might only have been driven locally their entire lives and never on a trip. We do our best to accurately disclose all issues we’re aware of, but we have no way of knowing if anything will fail during a trip. When we list a car on eBay we are aware of it being a national marketplace. We only list cars that we feel are capable of making a cross country trip but, of course, WE CANNOT GUARANTEE ANY CAR TO MAKE ANY TRIP, NO MATTER WHAT THE CURRENT CONDITION! We HIGHLY recommend a AAA membership to anyone traveling cross-country, even in something brand new.
No dealer or manufacturer can guarantee this on any vehicle whether new or used. Please don’t expect us to do differently or hold us responsible if a problem occurs. We don’t list vehicles with known problems or try to hide them!

About Our Photographs

People often ask me about, or compliment me on, my photography and how I do the pictures. I work on a system and take basically the same set of pictures for every single vehicle. Check our current and previous auctions to verify this. I try to use the same location every time if possible. I do NOT (and don’t have the time to) get sneaky with angles or lighting in an attempt to hide flaws. While I do not specifically highlight flaws we don’t hide them because they’ll be seen eventually. Some folks are scared that the vehicle pictured might be very different from the one they see. Our photographs are taken with a pocket sized Canon SX-120is digital camera or an iPhone 4S. I process them using Apple’s iPhoto version 8.1.2. The only modifications I make to photographs are to crop them so they are framed properly. Beyond that, I will only use the program’s automatic Enhance feature and then sharpen the photos so details will be more visible to the bidders in case they wish to download them to their desktops and further enlarge them. Several buyers have flattered me by asking to have copies of their vehicle’s photographs because they liked them so much. IPhoto is NOT like Photoshop and doesn’t give me the ability to alter or cover up huge rust holes in my photos. I take a HUGE amount of pride in what I do and enjoy taking photos and like presenting cars nicely but, when processing 100’s of pictures, I don’t have the time or desire to modify pictures beyond what they are. I’m not in the business of misleading buyers through pictures. I take the photos and I’m the guy that meets you when you pick up the car. Obviously, since I walk with a cane and my ass is easy to kick, it is better there are no surprises. It’s that simple. When you try it, digital photography is pretty simple.

Apple announces CarPlay in-car iPhone interface

Mon, 03 Mar 2014

Apple, maker of tech items like the iPhone, iPad and Mac line of computers, is extending its reach into the automotive market, making a fairly big announcement ahead of the Geneva Motor Show. No, it hasn't bought Tesla (yet). Instead, Apple has announced CarPlay, an all-new means of controlling an iPhone through your car.
Now, this doesn't strike us as some gimmicky thing. It's become increasingly common for automakers to take advantage of the high-speed data streams its customers enjoy on their smartphones in order to integrate navigation, traffic, audio and other infotainment items into a car's touchscreen interface. The Chevrolet Spark and Sonic are two prime examples of this move, using an iPhone's data stream for Siri integration and data for a third-party navigation app.
Owners will be able to plug in their iPhones to their cars via the USB port and gain control of a number of the device's functions, all through a car's touchscreen.

2017 North American Car, Truck, and Utility of the Year entries announced

Wed, Jul 6 2016

Over 40 vehicles will compete for the 2017 North American Car, Truck, and Utility of the Year awards. If that name looks a little strange, it's because the competition added a third category. In years past, pickup trucks, crossovers, SUVs, commercial vans, and minivans competed for the same award. That's why there were occasionally weird comparisons, like last year's competition between the Volvo XC90 and Nissan Titan XD. The new format separates pickups and commercial vans into the truck contest and CUVs, SUVs, and minivans into the utility competition. A complete list of eligible vehicles is below, but here are a few highlights. For one, the entire list of entries has a luxurious lean. Of the 43 vehicles, nearly half of them are from premium brands. There are two eligible Bentleys – the Bentayga and Mulsanne Â– the Rolls-Royce Dawn, Jaguar F-Pace, Audi Q7, and the Mercedes-Benz GLS-, E-, and S-Class Maybach. The performance ranks are lofty, too, with the Audi R8, Acura NSX, Alfa Romeo Giulia, Mercedes SL- and SLC-Class, Porsche 718, and F-150 Raptor. The mainstream entries are just as comprehensive. From the Chrysler Pacifica to the Chevrolet Cruze to the Fiat 124 Spider to the Mitsubishi Mirage, NACTOY has covered an enormous price range with this year's contestants. Of course, these are only the eligible vehicles. They'll need to run through three rounds of judging, starting in September at NACTOY's traditional Hell, MI, test drive. The Canadian and American journalists involved in the judging will announce this year's nine finalists Â– three in each category Â– on December 6. Cars Acura NSX Alfa Romeo Giulia Audi A4 Audi R8 Bentley Mulsanne Buick Cascada Buick LaCrosse Cadillac CT6 Chevrolet Bolt Chevrolet Cruze Fiat 124 Genesis G90 Hyundai Elantra Infiniti Q60 Jaguar XE Kia Cadenza Lincoln Continental Mercedes-Benz E-Class sedan Mercedes-Benz S550 Maybach Mercedes-Benz SL-Class Mercedes-Benz SLC-Class Mini Clubman Mitsubishi Mirage/G4 Porsche 718 Boxster and Cayman Rolls-Royce Dawn Toyota Prius Prime Volvo S90 SUVs Audi Q7 Bentley Bentayga Buick Envision Cadillac XT5 Chrysler Pacifica GMC Acadia Infiniti QX30 Kia Sportage Mercedes-Benz GLS-Class Jaguar F-Pace Mazda CX-9 Nissan Armada Trucks Ford F-Series Super Duty pickups Ford F-150 Raptor Honda Ridgeline Nissan Titan half-ton Related Video: Featured Gallery Bentley Bentayga View 23 Photos News Source: Automotive News - sub.

Volvo V70 and XC70 and Ocean Race special editions wash ashore ahead of Geneva

Sat, 22 Feb 2014

Volvo will unveil the third in its series of new concepts to the 2014 Geneva Motor Show, but it will also bring a flotilla of special editions to the Swiss show. The V70 and XC70 are getting limited-edition models called simply Edition, and the V40, V40 Cross Country, V60 and XC60 will have Volvo Ocean Race Editions.
The Edition models outfit the cars with an extra sprinkling of style. The V70 Edition gets high-gloss black trim on the grille, mirror caps, side window frames and tailgate and rides on silver, 17-inch wheels with high-gloss black 17-inch and 18-inch wheels as options. The XC70 Edition adds some gloss black exterior upgrades too, plus high-gloss black, 18-inch diamond-cut wheels. Both models are swathed in black leather upholstery with cream stitching.
The Volvo Ocean Race Editions celebrate the brand's sponsorship of a 38,739-nautical-mile yacht race that will circumnavigate the world from 2014 to 2015. All of them sport the race logo on the tread plates, front fenders, infotainment display on start-up and special seven-spoke wheels. Inside, there is the choice of black or blonde leather seats with orange stitching. The 60-series cars also sport a map of the race route on the rear load cover.
