Selling my super rare Volvo 850R. This is a really fast turbo-engine sedan that will definitely get you where you need to go quickly. The car is in fantastic shape. It has a clean carfax and is accident free. Owned by responsible owners in a smoke free environment. 

You will not be disappointed with this car! Very very clean and super fun to drive. I would be happy to show the car to anyone who wants to come see it. Just contact me and we can work something out. Also feel free to ask any questions!



A Brief History: 
I bought this car a while ago from a very reputable, local Volvo mechanic. As you can see from the maintenance section below, he took extremely good care of the car and replaced a lot of essential parts like the timing belt, heater core, tires, shocks etc. (all very recently too, so you wont need to do any of that) Check maintenance records below for more details. I used the car as a commuter for a while, but i am no longer in need of a second car so i have decided to sell it.

Exterior:
The body is perfect with hardly in dings or scratches. Included on this model is the sport package. It has the special R front bumper with a lip, the R rear spoiler and side skirts. The wheels are 7x17 7-spoke heavy duty volan alloy wheels. All are straight but they all have a little road rash (some more than others). Tires are all very nice with at least 85% tread left with only 16,000 miles on them. Also comes with a full size spare in the trunk.

Interior:
The interior is in wonderful shape as well. As you can see from the pictures, the seats are in beautiful shape. Only the driver side is a little worn, but its still pretty nice. Seats are heated. It has graphite grey leather with dark alcantara suede seat and door inserts, burled black walnut wood trim on instrument panel and floor console with Graphite carpeting/interior plastics and polished aluminum door sills. Also has light Grey leather gearknob, seat piping, hand break and steering wheel insert. Audio: 200w amplifier with 8-speaker audio system and a SC-805/815 in-dash CD player. Sun roof is also a nice addition for the summer.

Maintenance:
180,000 miles: Replaced shifter console bulbs, rear engine seal, front and rear O2 sensors
195,000 miles: A/C evac and recharge, replaced head gasket and valve guide seals, 4 cam seals
216,000 miles: Replaced A/C evaporator, heater core, pollen cabin filter
218,000 miles: Replaced, r side ball joints and control arms, Timing Belt
224,000 miles: 4 New UHP Cooper Tires, 4 New Bilstein HD Shocks 
 Oil, filter and break pads changed on a very regular basis.

Tasteful Modifications:
Eibach Lowering springs
Strut Brace
Samco Sport hoses
v70 rain diverters
Black IPD mesh grill with 'Volvo Slash'
Tinted windows

Needs:
In need of new trunk strut. 
PMP switch. Very standard replacement. The connection is causing a the yellow arrow to go off on the dash every now and then and should probably be replaced at some point. Not a serious problem though.

Volvo details upcoming XC90's new scalable platform

Tue, 12 Aug 2014

In two weeks' time, we'll be boarding a flight for Stockholm for the live reveal of the new Volvo XC90. But before we do, Volvo has revealed another round of salient details regarding not only its new crossover, but a whole range of new vehicles to share its architecture.
That platform is called Scalable Product Architecture, and it follows the latest industry trend towards modular platforms. The product of four years' development, the new platform uses high-strength boron steel to optimize weight and rigidity. The scalable architecture, set to underpin the next-generation S60, V60, XC60, S80 and anything larger, offers designers more flexibility in terms of proportions. It can be adapted to a wide range of vehicles of different shapes and sizes, designed from the get-go to incorporate a range of powertrains (including the XC90's new twin-charged hybrid system) and all the latest safety technologies you'd expect from a Volvo.
The XC90, Volvo has revealed, will also offer increased interior flexibility, with movable second and third rows to optimize cargo space and legroom as needed. That third row is designed to accommodate children (or small adults) up to five-foot-seven. Meanwhile the image inset above gives us our first glimpse at the new XC90's styling, with T-shaped running lights inspired by Thor's hammer.

Volvo studying test of electric roads in Sweden

Tue, 27 May 2014

Volvo already announced the results of a study of wireless charging using a stationary C30, and now it's embarking on a more ambitious study of wireless charging involving moving city buses. Next year, in conjunction with the Swedish Transport Association, Volvo will build a section of electric road up to 500 meters long that would use inductive charging to refill the batteries while the bus drives over it.
Right now, the company's Hyper Bus diesel hybrid has to stop to plug in and charge at the end of its route. The company is looking for a way to keep buses in service while being able to run on electric power for greater lengths of time. The new line used for the study will be called ElectriCity, and will come online in central Gothenburg sometime in 2015. There's a press release below with more information.

New Volvo ad remembers the joy of rear-facing jump seats

Mon, 19 May 2014

With the rise in popularity of first the minivan and later the crossover as the default family vehicle, there have been about 20 years of children who have missed out on the joy of rear-facing jump seats in station wagons. It means kids today don't know the pleasure to be found in making faces or lewd gestures at other drivers while their parents can't see. Plus, they don't know the slightly nauseous feeling of watching the world pass by in reverse. However, a group of filmmakers look back with nostalgia at this increasingly uncommon automotive feature in a new ad for the 2015 Volvo V60.
As part of its sponsorship of the National Film Festival for Talented Youth, Volvo commissions a team each year to create an advertisement to be shown during the festival. This year's shows how the company's buyers have gone from riding in the back to driving the brand's cars. Scroll down to check out the charming ad, along with some wistful looks at classic Volvo wagons, before the jump seat is forgotten.
