CAR HAS PLENTY OF POWER, PULLS STRONG AND DRIVES LIKE NEW. A WELL TAKEN CARE OF SUNNY FLORIDA CAR!!!!!!

I‘VE HAD THE PLEASURE OF OWNING 3 PARTICULAR VOLVO’S DURING MY LIFE AND ALL WERE FACTORY TRUE “R” CARS…….  INCLUDING A 1995 850 T5-R, LATER ON A 1997 850-R, AND CURRENTLY WHAT YOU SEE HERE A 2006 S60-R. DON’T BE FOOLED BY THE NEWER VOLVO LINEUP OF “R-DESIGN” MODELS. THEY ARE BASICALLY JUST AESTHETICS ADD ONS AND NOTHING MORE. –THAT’S MY OPINION!

I REALLY HATE TO SELL THIS EXCLUSIVE CAR, BUT THE ONLY REASON FOR MOVING-ON IS THAT I NEEDED MORE REAR CARGO ROOM. UNFORTUNATELY, VOLVO HAS NOT ANSWERED THE CALLING FOR A TRUE “R” SUV, SO IN THE INTERIM, I MOVED ON AND PURCHASED A BMW X5-“M” SUV THIS WEEK.

THE S60-R HAS APPROXIMATELY 74,500 MILES AND REQUIRES NOTHING MORE THAN A NEW DRIVER AND NICE RADAR DETECTOR!  AGAIN, IT DRIVES PERFECT, PULLS STRONG, LOOKS GREAT, AND TURNS HEADS FOR A SECOND LOOK. PLEASE DO KEEP IN MIND THAT IT IS AN 8 YEAR OLD CAR AND IS DRIVEN DAILY SO WEAR AND TEAR SHOULD BE EXPECTED.  HOPEFULLY A VOLVO ENTHUSIAST OUT THERE CAN ENJOY IT AS MUCH AS I HAVE.

A FEW THINGS TO NOTE:  EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE A CHECK MESSAGE ON THE DASH APPEARS FOR THE ACTIVE SUSPENSION. I HAVE HAD MY VOLVO DEALER CHECK IT OUT AND THE MASTER TECH WHO WORKS ON MY CAR RAN A COMPLETE “VIDA” DIAGNOSTIC AS WELL AS PERFORMED A “S.U.M” RECALIBRATION (VOLVOS OWN SOFTWARE MODULE). IT BASICALLY INDICATED THAT A RANDOM LOW VOLTAGE SIGNAL READING WAS APPEARING ON AND OFF ON THE LEFT FRONT DRIVERS SHOCK ABSORBER. I WAS TOLD BY THE MASTER TECH, WHO ALSO OWNS AN S60-R, THAT IF IT CONTINUES TO DRIVE AND FUNCTON LIKE NORMAL, THEN  NOT TO BOTHER WITH IT UNTIL LATER ON DOWN THE ROAD. FROM WHAT HE TOLD ME AND FROM WHAT I HAVE READ, IT APPEARS TO BE A COMMON ISSUE AMONG MANY S60R OWNERS. NEVERTHELESS, I HAVE DRIVEN THE CAR FOR WELL OVER 5,000 PLUS MILES SINCE THEN AND THE SUSPENSION STILL FUNCTIONS AND DRIVES LIKE NORMAL EVEN THOUGH THE MESSAGE POPS UP ON THE DASH EVERY NOW AND THEN.  

LASTLY, ONE COSMETIC ISSUE TO NOTE IS THAT THE LOWER BOTTOM PORTION OF THE FRONT BUMPER HAS A 2-3 INCH CRACK IN THE PLASTIC UNDERSIDE WHICH IS NOT VERY NOTICABLE FROM THE FRONT OF THE CAR. THIS WAS CAUSED BY MY OWN FAULT WHILE REVERSING OUT OF A PARKING SPOT LATE ONE EVENING. AS YOU MAY HAVE NOTICED THE CAR SITS RATHER LOW TO THE GROUND, AND UNFORTUNATLY THE LOWER FRONT BUMPER COVER WENT OVER A BROKEN PARKING STOP AND SNAGGED ON IT WHEN REVERSE OUT. SINCE THEN, I HAVE LEFT IT ALONE AND IT’S NOT THAT NOTICABLE UNLESS YOU LAY DOWN IN FRONT OF THE BUMPER AND LOOK UP UNDER THE COVER.

OVERALL THE CAR IS IN GREAT SHAPE AND HAS BEEN SERVICED REGULARLY. ALL BOOKS AND MANUALS AND ONE KEY ARE INCLUDED.   I HAVE A CLEAN FLORIDA TITLE IN HAND AND IS READY FOR TRANSFER TO A NEW OWNER.

THE CAR IS ALSO FOR SALE LOCALLY SO I RESERVE THE RIGHT TO END AUCTION AT ANY TIME. BUYER IS RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY OR ALL PICK-UPS. WINNING BIDDER MUST COMPLETE TRANSACTION AND TAKE POSSESSION OF CAR WITHIN 5 DAYS. THE CAR IS BEING SOLD AS-IS WITH NO WARRANTY. PLEASE ALSO NOTE THAT I DRIVE THIS CAR DAILY SO MILEAGE MAY VARY. PLEASE FEEL FREE TO REACH OUT TO ME IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS AND AS ALWAYS, PLEASE BID WITH CONFIDENCE AS I HAVE A PERFECT FEEDBACK SCORE AND BELIEVE IN HONESTY AND FAIRNESS. THANKS FOR LOOKING AND GOOD LUCK!

Gimp Pimp and Aqua Volvo at 24 Hours of LeMons | Car Club USA

Tue, Mar 22 2016

Car Club USA heads to Sonoma, CA where the Gimp Pimp Cadillac and Aqua Volvo will take on all the crazy, sub-$500 competition at the 24 Hours of LeMons endurance race. "Over the last 30 years, car racing has gotten extremely serious and extremely expensive and it just seemed like there was a real need to make it accessible again," said LeMons founder Jay Lamm. The result is a series of endurance races across the US and Australia where all you need to join the fun is a junky car and some basic safety equipment. "It's just fun, compared to pro racing," said Wendy Epstein, driver of a 1979 Volvo 242 in bright "Aqua Volvo" livery. "24 Hours of LeMons is a form of racing that is designed to be cheap and easy, and anybody can do it," said Bill Manfroy, driver of the Gimp Pimp, a 1996 Cadillac SLS with some important modifications. "Part of what makes the Gimp Pimp Cadillac so special is that it does have hand controls, so it gives access to people like me that ordinarily get to race." "Which makes it perfect for LeMons." Each Car Club USA episode features a different car club or event from across the US, where passionate owner communities gather to share automotive experiences and embark on incredible adventures. From Main Street cruises to off-road trails, catch all the latest car club activity on Autoblog.

Hot rod tractor stars in Swedish version of Farmkhana

Mon, 08 Sep 2014

The Nordic countries are known for their beautiful fjords, blonde-haired populace and bitter cold for a good portion of the year. The hours spent indoors during the dark, cold season apparently gives a lot of time for some crazy brainstorming. Tire store chain Vianor is highlighting the Traktor Terror in a new video. If Ken Block is the master of Gymkhana, then these guys know all about Farmkhana in their custom, turbocharged tractor.
According to the YouTube description from Vianor, the tractor is a 1956 Volvo BM Terrier with an added roll cage, adjustable front suspension and extended frame. The engine is thoroughly Swedish, and it's based on a Volvo 940 Turbo with a Volvo 240 head and Volvo 740 intercooler. However, it uses a Saab turbo Prospark ignition and fuel system. All told, the setup is claimed to make 225 horsepower and is capable of a top speed of 60 miles per hour.
That's not crazy power, but this tractor can certainly put it down. The farm machine has no problem smoking those big rear wheels and drifts easily.... although, it may be a tiny little bit unstable (hence the roll cage). If nothing else, this looks like the world's most fun way to be a farmer, that's for sure.

Top torque-to-weight ratios under $100k, $50k and $25k

Tue, 07 Oct 2014

Horsepower may steal a lot of headlines, but the always-more-complex torque figure is often a critical one for both the workingman and the motoring playboy. The measure of rotational force represents the twist that can liquefy one's tires or haul one's horse trailer. Good stuff.
It follows then, that as with the horsepower-to-weight list that we assembled for you a few months ago, a list of cars that offer the most pound-feet with the fewest pounds to carry, is an interesting one to break down. Sure, there's a big difference in how the torque is applied from a turbocharged six-cylinder in a Swedish luxury sedan and a massive heavy-duty truck's turbo-diesel. But being the car/stat geeks that we are, we think it's kinda neat that those two vehicles rank near each other where torque and weight intersect.
As with the horsepower list, we've given you figures as pounds per every one pound-foot. Again broken down into broad price categories, we've got a mixed bag of 2014 and 2015 models here, too. Every effort has been made to select the most up-to-date prices and specs, and we've also to omitted some '14 cars that won't be re-upped after the ongoing yearly changeover.
