Our Volvo S60R has been wonderful to us for 4 years, 65K, while we’ve owned it.  It has 144K gentle miles.  It sports a 6 speed standard transmission, Optional Volvo Blue Tooth, Optional Volvo 350W High Output Amp with Dolby Pro Logic Stereo and Optional Heico Stainless High Output Muffler.  My wife has used this for her primary vehicle with no issues of any kind.  It comes fully loaded with the exception of factory navigation.  All S60R issues from 2004 were addressed for 2005.  It sports 330HP (with Heico cat-back Muffler, 300HP without) and is AWD.  Included are 4 winter R wheels, another R wheel with tire (not pictured), Volvo all-weather front and rear mats and an Aftermarket set of front wet weather mat covers.  The car has been garaged every week day while at work.  That's the good.

 

Now the bad:  During the last oil change at the dealer, we were informed the right Tie-rod end needs to be replaced.

 

The “Not so Ugly”:  18 months or so ago, our Volvo dealer replaced a front OEM H.I.D. headlight assembly and front bumper after a friend backed into us while in the driveway.  (Volvo bumpers are color matched at the factory so there’s no painting needed)  A couple months ago our Volvo dealer replaced the rear bumper after someone backed into her while she was navigating through her work’s parking garage.  No repaint was done and invoices of the dealer’s work are available upon request.  Because these three items were full replacements with no other work required, these two incidents are not considered as "Accidents" but rather as "Replaced Parts".  Please ask us ANY questions you may have.

 

Price is firm so please look elsewhere if you can’t afford to buy.  This is a rare find for a S60R with a 6 Speed.  Many more miles and joy left in our Volvo.  Thank you and please remember to ask all questions before buying.

 

A $200 NON REFUNDABLE deposit due immediately via PayPal with the final sale in cash must be done within 3 Days.  This is listed locally and may be removed for any reason.

 

FIRST SHOWING WILL BE ON FRIDAY THE 25th OF JULY.  WE ARE NOT AVAILABALE BEFORE THEN, SORRY.

 

...something to note about the S60R...It has an onboard computer that monitors things like avg. speed and avg. mpg.  We regularly get 24-25 mpg. average and 27-28 when on highway only - NOT the 19/23 KBB reports.

 

 

We've received several requests for a price without the set of rims and mats.  Cash price in person - like buying locally outside of "you know who" so no selling fees, would be $6,700

Sunday Drive: Volvo hits a crossover home run, and people still love sports cars

Sun, Sep 24 2017

Looking back at the week that just was clearly tells us at least three things. First, crossovers don't have to be boring. Second, people still love sports cars, from the attainable (Audi TT RS) to the fanciful (Mercedes-AMG GT C). And finally, the traditional German trio of premium luxury brands had better not rest on their laurels, because credible challengers are coming in from every direction. The biggest reveal of the week, at least judging by the interest of Autoblog readers, was the Volvo XC40. Not only is the little 'ute a looker, it introduces some innovative new buying/leasing schemes designed to appeal to an audience accustomed to trading in and trading up every couple of years. Think of Volvo's flat-fee lease as you would a smartphone contract, and you'll be on the right track. Genesis looks to have a hit on its hands in the form of the G70 sport sedan. We took a Korean-spec model for a spin and found a lot to like about the upstart contender. We can't wait to sample one here in the United States to see how it stacks up against the Audi A4, BMW 3 Series, and Mercedes-Benz C-Class. In other news, we're still really excited to see a production Ford Ranger Raptor. But if you just can't wait for the official reveal — it's OK, neither can we — take a look at the renderings in our post down below. As always, tune in to Autoblog next week for a front-row seat to all the happenings worth following in the automotive industry.

Five vehicles named Top Safety Pick+ including new Civic, MKZ

Fri, 08 Mar 2013

In an attempt to help push vehicle safety to a higher level, the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety created a stricter Top Safety Pick+ rating last year, which incorporates a brutal small overlap test and requires cars to get Good ratings in four out of the five categories (and no less than Acceptable in the fifth). Joining the list of the safest cars of 2013, the 2013 Volvo XC60, Lincoln MKZ, Honda Civic (sedan and coupe) and the 2014 Mazda6 have all received the coveted TSP+ rating.
The Mazda6 and Lincoln MKZ have both been completely redesigned, and both received Acceptable ratings in the small overlap test. The Honda Civic, coming off its emergency refresh for 2013, is the first small car to be subjected to the small overlap test, and IIHS says that one of the car's many upgrades includes a stiffer front structure allowing it to receive Good ratings in all categories. Similarly, the XC60 gets all Good ratings thanks to, according to IIHS, Volvo updating the airbag software allowing the side airbags to inflate during the small overlap test.
The 2014 Subaru Forester has not yet been subjected to the small overlap test, so it must make do with just a Top Safety Pick rating until the IIHS tests small utility vehicles, which is expected to happen later in the spring.

Aurora, Volvo partner on self-driving heavy trucks

Sun, Apr 4 2021

Global heavy truck manufacturers are lining up technology partners to help build out self-driving systems for long-haul freight that could see widespread commercial service well before self-driving robotaxis. The latest alliance was announced Tuesday between Sweden's Volvo Group and California-based Aurora Innovation, building on a working relationship that dates back several years, the partners said. Analysts expect more such partnerships, as relatively young technology firms such as Aurora connect their autonomous vehicle systems knowledge with the deep manufacturing experience of legacy companies such as Volvo Trucks. “You can't go at it alone in autonomy," said Grayson Brulte, president consultancy Brulte & Company. "The trucking industry is a completely different personality" than the passenger vehicle business, with different requirements. Most of the larger truck manufacturers have turned to self-driving tech partners, driven in part by a chronic shortage of drivers and a boom in e-commerce, fueled by the global pandemic. In January, Aurora announced a strategic partnership with U.S. truckmaker PACCAR, whose brands include Peterbilt and Kenworth. Aurora's founders include self-driving veterans from Tesla and Alphabet's Waymo. Aurora last year said its first commercial product would be in trucking "where the market is largest (and) the unit economics are best." In 2020, Waymo Chief Executive John Krafcik told Reuters that "goods delivery is a bigger market than moving people" as Waymo expanded its focus to include heavy trucks. Germany's Daimler has formed a self-driving truck alliance with Waymo, while China's largest heavy truck maker, FAW Jiefang, has partnered with Plus AI. Volkswagen's Traton truck group is an investor in TuSimple, as is U.S. truckmaker Navistar. In a January earnings call, Tesla Chief Executive Elon Musk said the long-delayed Semi electric truck is highly likely to be the first of the company's vehicles to achieve full self-driving capability.
