Volvo 1969 1800 S, Restored, Overdrive New Bmw Heated Leather Seats Nice Car on 2040-cars
Medford, Oregon, United States
I am reducing my sports car collection and therefor selling my restored 1969 Volvo 1800S sports coupe. It has recently been restored with many new parts including engine rebuild by prior owner. It was repainted in Oakland Raider colors by the prior owner a Raider Fan. She spend a lot of money on the restoration to make this a desirable driving Volvo that should increase in value over time. It has twin Carbs and is much more user friendly that the later injected model. It has the smaller desireable chrome bumpers, great working overdrive and new brakes and running gear. It was not a full body off restoration but rather "ground up" hence it is not a #1 car but I rate it as a #2 clean but not prestine.
We did not like the old Volvo seats and had access to two newer BMW coupe, leather heated power seats which we installed. I would feel comfortable driving this Volvo most anywhere but is you want to trailer her I a compact two wheel car trailer that fits her nicely and will sell it with the car for $900 over the auction price. We have set a very reasonable reserve and it should be met. So bid to own. If you have less than 10 positive ratings please don't bid without contaction me for approval. You may see the Volve and a test drive and inspection is encouraged. As with all used vehicles it is sold as is here in Medford, Oregon. I will help shipping if desired. If you have questions please email me at whf2929@aol.com or call me at 541 944 2929 and I will try to answer them. Thanks for looking and bidding. It is for sale. I am approaching 80 and sports cars are too hard to enter with this stoved up body. On Mar-02-14 at 11:46:36 PST, seller added the following information: Just read where a 1969 Volvo 1800S set the Worlds record to mileage by one owner cars, 3 Million Miles and still counting. Reliable? you betcha |

Big rig gets blown over on Wyoming freeway, flattens police cruiser
Sun, Feb 12 2017A big rig navigating a stretch of windy Wyoming highway last week was blown over by high winds and landed on a Wyoming Highway Patrol cruiser. According to CBS News, three Wyoming Highway Patrol troopers responded to an accident along Interstate 80 near Elk Mountain on February 7. While the troopers were out of their cars assisting the crash victims, a white Volvo semi-truck lumbered up I-80 toward them. Wind gusts in that part of Wyoming were clocked in at up to 90 miles per hour on Tuesday, and one of them caught the semi as it neared the parked cruisers. Video from one of the cruiser's onboard cameras showed the big rig drift to the right as a big gust hit the trailer. Slowly, the whole rig tipped over and flattened one of the parked cruisers. The truck then slid a few feet on its side and came to a stop just aft of the cruiser. None of the troopers were injured in the incident, and two people in the truck came out of it unhurt as well. Patrol Lieutenant David Wagener told KGWN that that stretch of I-80 was closed on Tuesday to lightweight, high-profile vehicles. The truck driver was cited for the incident. High winds are no joke, and vehicles getting blown around or even clean off the road is a pretty common phenomenon. Way back in 2011, a truck got blown over in Utah. Then there was a train that got blown off a bridge in Louisiana in 2015.

2015.5 Volvo S60 and V60 Polestar [w/video]
Thu, 01 May 2014Polestar Performance has been around since 1996, but until recently, it only did two things: manage Volvo motorsports operations and run a specialist consumer-facing side that built concept cars and boosted Volvo's turbocharged production cars by 15 to 60 horsepower. Five years ago, it fulfilled its long-held desire to engineer an actual production car, first creating the C30 Polestar Performance Concept, a showcar that led to the C30 Polestar Limited Edition.
That foray led to the berserker, 508-horsepower 2013 S60 Polestar Concept that Auto Motor und Sport called "a hard slap in the face to the Germans," and that model led to the limited-edition S60 Polestar production car just for Australia, a car reviewers swooned for, with one comparing its chassis finesse to the Ferrari 458 Italia.
All of which is to say, Polestar has a good start for a motorsports and tuning company to make good on its production car dreams. The 2015 Volvo S60 Polestar and V60 Polestar keep that momentum going, and beautifully at that.
See Volvo's integration of Apple CarPlay in action
Mon, 03 Mar 2014Apple unveiled its new CarPlay touchscreen infotainment system earlier today, and Volvo has just released a video showing the system in action. The Cupertino tech giant is expected to announce partnerships with Ferrari and Mercedes-Benz to license CarPlay, as well, at the 2014 Geneva Motor Show and will be working with even more manufacturers in the future.
The system pairs the driver's iPhone with the car's infotainment system and seamlessly allows them use the smart phone's functions and, at least in Volvo's demonstration, the car's climate control and seat heating systems. According to the video, the new system will be available "in the coming generation Volvo cars," which likely means the upcoming, next-generation Volvo XC90.
However, the system will not work universally. Apple will add functionality through an update to iOS 7 in the future for the iPhone 5, 5C and 5S. At launch other devices won't be supported. Scroll down to watch CarPlay work. We are expecting more details to emerge on the new infotainment system when the Swiss show opens tomorrow.
