Greetings everyone:)
IN AN ATTEMPT TO SAVE EVERYONE TIME I HAVE DESCRIBED THIS VEHICLE IN EVERY LITTLE DETAIL I COULD THINK OF. SO PLEASE TAKE THE TIME TO READ THE ENTIRE DESCRIPTION BEFORE ASKING QUESTIONS. I WOULD GREATLY APPRECIATE IT!
1996 Volvo 850R wagon up for sale with currently 146xxx miles. If you're a car enthusiast, you already know how RARE this particular model is. Especially in this kind of condition. I have taken it on a few local Volvo club ride alongs and received quite a few compliments. As you can see, this Volvo has been very well taken care of. Spending a majority of her life behind closed doors. The original paint is still in stunning condition. The color is "Flame Red", and was limited in production.
The interior is pretty much just as impressive and shows very few if any flaws. It is all tear free and still provides very comfortable support. The rear seats have barely been used. All of the wood grain trim is still crack free. The sunroof opens and closes with ease and does not leak. This wagon is very spacious and can easily fit two people to "camp out" in the back with the seats folded down which just takes seconds. The window tint gives you full privacy. It also has two separate rear cargo covers that easily pull out and retract, as well as a Weather Tech waterproof cargo liner.
This Volvo has never been smoked in, and is free of any accidents or "fender benders". Speaking of safety. This model has a front and side airbag system, along with front and rear anti-roll bars. Both the front and rear suspension are still very solid and I have also had a Torsion Bar installed which is a $185.00 upgrade. This car handles and performs like a dream! While the original paint is near perfect, there are only a few spots with minor surface scratches. The front bumper has very low clearance so this is very difficult to avoid ( see pics ). It would be considered "particular" of me to even mention it.
This Volvo has ZERO RUST! All four tires have about 80% of their tread left including the full size and matching spare. The front and rear brakes are also near new. The timing belt also only has about 15K miles on it. The rear main seal was replaced and updated less than 3K miles ago, which is a well known failure on these models. All of the fluids are clean and filled to their proper levels. This car has absolutely no leaks. Oil changes have been completed every 3K miles.
It has an automatic transmission, which shifts very smoothly and on time. The 5 cylinder 2.3 liter engine produces an incredible 250 horsepower (179 kW) @ 5600 rpm and 221 lb·ft (300 N·m) @ 2100 rpm. Not that I am encouraging anyone to be a speed demon, these facts are good to know:) It has a rating of 0-60mph in 5.8 seconds and with a top speed of 158 mph. I suspect that the previous owner has "upgraded" the Turbo system as this 850R provides seat pinning power compared to other ones I have driven. You will be amazed on how gas friendly this car is! There is a significant difference when using the Economy or Sport mode which is as easy as pushing a button. There is also a Winter mode, and traction control system. All of the electronics work great!
Other options include:
Power Windows
Power locks
Factory alarm system
Locking glove box
Locking storage compartment
Power sunroof
Dual Power heated seats
On board computer ( measures fuel economy etc )
Power mirrors
Cruise control
Ice Cold air conditioning
Privacy glass
Original Volvo radio with tape cassette and cd player & premium sound
The only reason I am selling is the need to down size my garage candy. Otherwise this Volvo would stay in the family for life.
This Volvo comes with a Clean California Title, Current Ca registration until July 2013, Owners manual and service records, clean Carfax Report, original 850R floor mats, full size and matching spare tire and wheel and two sets of original Volvo keys. If you are a California buyer I will provide a new smog certificate with purchase. I am happy to assist with shipping and or airport pickup from the San Diego airport ( SAN ). Feel free to email me with any questions or concerns, or to schedule a test drive..Please note that I may end this auction at anytime. Good luck and happy bidding!

Polestar says goodbye to Volvo C30 in video tribute
Tue, 12 Mar 2013The Volvo C30 was put to its eternal bed a few months ago, but the tuners at Polestar have a little more eulogizing to do. The Swedish house of speed that has raced and reworked the little hatch since its introduction in 2006 wants the world to know what they've been through together, so it has encapsulated seven years of around-the-world action into three minutes and 28 seconds of track footage and champagne.
We're still waiting on word of a replacement for the funny little hatch, and while we lament what could have been, the video below proves that the C30 provided plenty of thrills for those outside of the US. And as you can read in our recent review of the Polestar-enhanced road-going C30, it provided a decent amount of fun for those of us in the States, as well.
Leno drives Volvo P1800 from Roger Moore's The Saint
Thu, 18 Sep 2014Outside of a few notable exceptions, Volvo usually isn't associated with making beautifully curvaceous vehicles. But in the 1960s and early '70s the company proved with the P1800 that its cars didn't only have to be safe but staid family transportation. Underneath that shapely styling were a lot of components from the brand's parts bin, but that didn't bother Roger Moore when he drove one of these in the TV series The Saint. Actually, the future James Bond actor didn't just get behind of one of these; he owned this exact 1967 P1800 S. It's this week's highlight on Jay Leno's Garage.
Moore was the car's original owner, but it also appeared in studio scenes of The Saint. Despite its famous provenance, when owner Bill Krzastek bought the P1800 in England, it was in pretty rough shape. The Volvo underwent a nine-month restoration to get it back into shape, which included some new body panels and wheels. Krzastek claims that much of the interior is original, though.
Krzastek comes off has a little bit nerdy, but you have to give him credit. He absolutely loves his Volvo and knows something about practically every detail of his car's history. Krzastek even refinanced his house to fund the purchase and restoration of the P1800. Although, with the right maintenance these old Swedes have been known to go millions of miles. Enjoy this look at one that was a star of the screen in the '60s.
