1995 volvo 850 glt wagon in good condition. this has the non-turbo 2.4 litre 5 cylinder.
exterior is in above average condition for the age and mileage having only one minor rust spot behind passenger rear door, just above the rocker panel cover between the door and the wheelwell. the spot is only bubbled not rusted thru. the rest of the exterior is very clean with only stone chips along the rocker covers and minor scratches hear and there as you would expect with an 18 year old car. all glass is intact and in good condition. car does have headlight wipers but the passenger side is broken off and in the glove box. the front tires are brand new with less than 300 miles on them as of 2/25/2013. the rear tires were put on to pass inspection last year and they have just under 8000 miles on them. in march of 2012 i replaced both front control arms which included the ball joints,both outer tie rods, both upper strut mount bearings and also two rear control arm bushings.
interior is in average condition. the leather seats are in decent shape with mostly just cracks in the leather. the driver seat does have one or two small tears but nothing major. the power drivers seat works great as well as all three memory settings. the passenger seat is manual. both seats are heated but the drivers does not work, the passenger side works good. all electrical items function properly with the exception of the drivers side view mirror defrost, it is non operational, the rest if the mirror operates fine. the door panels have some marks on them but very minor. the carpet is in average condition, having a hole worn thru in the drivers foot well where you would rest your left foot. there are some stains in the cargo area. there is a package tray behind the rear seats that is intact but does have some cracks. there is a built in child seat (see pic) that looks like it has never been used and in this day and age it probably should remain that way.
the audio system works very well and appears to be original, am/fm with cassette and there is a six disc cd changer in the cargo area mounted under the floor panel. the changer works good. all speakers have good sound.
power sunroof is in great working order.
a believe i am the third owner. there are a lot of service records in the glove box from the previous owner.
engine runs good getting about 18-19 mpg city and 25-26 mpg highway. it could use a tune up and i dont know the last time it was done, it runs so good i didn't bother. i do know the timing belt was replaced around 127000 miles. i just changed the oil about 300 miles ago.. the transmission shifts smoothly being a 4 speed. it has economy, sport, and winter modes. the upper engine mount bushing is new (its more of a stabilizer than a mount). air conditioning does work but has a slow leak. i recharged it in june and it lasted me thru the summer, cooling the car pretty well for being a wagon.
overall the car is in good running/driving condition that needs very little work. parts are cheap and easy to work on. this would make a good first car for a new driver or a good commuter car for someone in college.
a deposit of $250.00 is due within 48 hours of auction close. balance due upon pick-up. cash or certified bank check only! NO PERSONAL CHECKS OR MONEY ORDERS. paypal may be used for the deposit only.

Cadillac tops Tesla in Consumer Reports semi-automated driving test
Thu, Oct 4 2018General Motors' Cadillac outscored Tesla in a new ranking of partially automated driving systems tested by Consumer Reports and released on Thursday. The highly influential nonprofit organization, which tests and rates a variety of consumer products from appliances to vehicles, said it compared Cadillac's Super Cruise and Tesla's Autopilot with similar systems from Nissan and Volvo. Nissan's ProPilot Assist was ranked third and Volvo's Pilot Assist fourth. Consumer Reports said it has been testing partially automated driving systems for several years but elected to conduct a formal study intended for publication, because "we are at a tipping point where they are now going mainstream," according to Jake Fisher, director of auto testing. The organization said its tests, conducted on a private track and on public roads in Connecticut, were designed to measure the systems' ability to automatically control steering and speed in certain situations, while helping drivers pay attention and regain manual control of the vehicle when required. CR noted that any of these systems can increase driving risk if used in inappropriate situations, or if drivers become inattentive or over-reliant on them. While they can help relieve driver stress and fatigue, Consumer Reports said, the partially automated systems are "not intended to be self-driving features." The systems typically use cameras, radar and other sensors, as well as mapping data, to monitor location and traffic conditions and help keep a vehicle centered in the lane at a safe distance behind other cars. Each system has limitations. Cadillac's Super Cruise, for instance, only functions on divided highways that have been mapped by GM. In contrast, Tesla's Autopilot can be used even on small, curvy roads with poor lane markings, but "operates erratically in those situations," Consumer Reports said.The organization tested Super Cruise on the Cadillac CT6; Autopilot on the Tesla Model 3, Model X and Model S; ProPilot Assist on the Nissan Leaf and Infiniti QX50; and Pilot Assist on the Volvo XC40 and XC60. Consumer Reports said Cadillac's Super Cruise did "the best job of balancing high-tech capabilities with ensuring the car is operated safely and the driver is paying attention." Tesla's Autopilot was cited for its capability and ease of use, while Nissan's ProPilot Assist did a better job than Autopilot or Volvo's Pilot Assist in keeping drivers engaged.
Volvo to complete concept car trilogy in Geneva
Tue, 11 Feb 2014Volvo went through some doldrums around the same time it was bought by Geely, but it proved that it was back when it unveiled the P1800-inpsired Concept Coupe last August at the Frankfurt Motor Show. It followed up with the sleek Concept XC Coupe crossover (pictured above) in Detroit that echoed the next-generation XC90. Now, the Swede is readying one more concept to bring the trilogy to an end, and act as the centerpiece of its display at the Geneva Motor Show in March.
There are no images of the new concept yet, not even a teaser, but Volvo says that like the other two, it's designed by Thomas Ingenlath and shares common design elements. Since it has already imagined a future coupe and crossover, maybe the concept is a sedan. Volvo has confirmed that it rides on the modular Scalable Product Architecture platform that is being used on multiple future production models and uses its new Drive-E four-cylinder engine family.
The Concept Coupe and Concept XC Coupe will be on display with the new concept in Geneva so that visitors can get a complete idea of Volvo's future. Hopefully, the company has finally righted the course and is ready to compete on the world stage again. Scroll down to read Volvo's few details about the new concept.
Volvo PV444 turns 70
Sun, 31 Aug 2014Volvo has made all manner of vehicles over the course of its long history, including coupes, convertibles, hatchbacks, sedans, wagons and SUVs. But the vehicle that started it all was the PV444.
Or rather, we should say, the PV444 is what re-started it all. Because while it wasn't Volvo's first model, it was the first one it produced after the war. Monday, September 1, will mark 70 years since the PV444 first debuted at the Royal Tennis Hall in Stockholm pictured above, where the company received 148,437 visitors.
That presentation there took place shortly before the end of World War II when the vehicle wasn't even finished yet. A team of 40 engineers and designers were still fine-tuning the final version, but were eager to show the public what it would start building after the last bullet was fired and peace would return to Europe.
