For sale is a 1997 Volvo 850R in white with a tan interior. Feel free to check the KBB for this car, it's higher than you probably think...I took some off the price to pay for any repairs it may need when purchased.

5 Cylinder Turbocharged 2.3L Engine. Stock Turbo, DP, and Exhaust.

This is a very neatly kept car for a 1997 and everyone who has seen it has raved about how nice the interior is for the year. I almost want to take the seats for my new car. It has approximately ~120,000 miles on the odometer which stopped sometime between when it stopped being driven and now.

It is in a very rare condition for the car, was babied and kept neat for the time that I owned it. It is quite the quick and fun vehicle and I am extremely sad to have to sell it, but it is time.

The Good:
-Mechanically Sound Engine + Turbo
-Low Mileage for the Year
-2 Owner car. I bought it at 104,000 to give you an idea of how much I actually drove it.
-FULL maintenance logs and receipts from the time I owned it, previous owner also kept logs of maintenance, but I do not have the receipts from those. (This is arranged neatly in a binder for the next owner of the car.)
-New silicon hoses as the old black OEM ones were a little on the rough side, should last a very long time.
-Maintenance work done when I first got the car at 104,000 to get it in the absolute best shape it could be in.
-Stock Premium Audio System that sounds better than my 2013 car does.
-Sunroof Visor
-Brand new spark plugs, spark plug wires, dist. cap, and rotor.
-If bought at my "buy it now" price I will include a ST USA ECU for the car as well if you want it and also some extra Oil I had lying around for the next Oil change it needed.



The Bad:
-A/C Leak, I used to just recharge it with a can from AutoZone every so often.
-Needs some brake work, ones on it now are pretty worn.
-Currently needs a battery, the one in it is dead at the moment.
-Wheels have some scuffing and chipping in a few places.
-Some of the black lining is coming up above where the doors are, heat got to it, kept the interior extremely protected though.

How does a massive Volvo truck compare to a Koenigsegg on a track?

Tue, 11 Nov 2014

Volvo Trucks thinks that its latest FH semi truck has a little sports car DNA mixed in with the ability to haul heavy loads thanks to its novel dual-clutch gearbox. And the company's marketing department certainly has an intriguing strategy to get the word out about the big rig's sporty traits. First, it staged a prank on an unsuspecting valet on the Italian Riviera, and now the FH has lined up a track battle around the Knutstorp racetrack against Sweden's ultimate supercar - a Koenigsegg One:1.
Fifth Gear host Tiff Needell takes the reins of the big Volvo and spends a little bit of time talking up its I-Shift Dual Clutch gearbox. However, the real fun is seeing the FH taking on the One:1. Of course, a head-to-head battle would hardly be fair against these extremely mismatched opponents. Instead, the challenge is for the 1,360-horsepower Koenigsegg to lap the track twice in the same time or less than the semi can do it once.
You just have to watch the video to see how if the big rig rises to the challenge. Also, scroll down to read Volvo Truck's press release touting the new gearbox, and check out the company's YouTube channel for more views of the race and a behind-the-scenes look.

The first trailer for Top Gear's 24th season shows a hands-free drag race

Tue, Dec 27 2016

In the excitement over Amazon's new motoring show, it's important to remember that there's a certain series from the BBC that's attempting to get its mojo back for a 24th season. Yes, we're talking about Top Gear. Since Chris Evans' departure earlier this year, Top Gear news has been relatively sparse, particularly as The Grand Tour and its hosts Jeremy Clarkson, James May, and Richard Hammond seized headlines. But on Christmas, watchers of the series' YouTube channel caught a glimpse of the first scene from the next season. Featuring hosts Matt LeBlanc, Chris Harris, and Rory Reid in what looks like a trio of old, dilapidated cars. We're thinking TG is running a taxi comparison. There's a London black cab and a Mercedes-Benz W210 – a favorite of European cabbies – but we aren't sure where Harris' boxy wagon fits in. Did the Volvo 850 Estate ever serve as a livery vehicle? But it's the basis for this comparison that's weird, because the hosts appear to be having a no-hands drag race. The cars veer off in different directions, traveling across what looks like a snow-covered dirt lot. We're assuming hilarity ensues. And while we don't quite know what they're hoping to accomplish, we are looking forward to watching it go down. Top Gear's 24th season doesn't have an official air date, and the video ends only with a cryptic "Coming Soon." Expect to hear more in the next few months.

2015.5 Volvo S60 and V60 Polestar [w/video]

Thu, 01 May 2014

Polestar 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.
