This auction is for a 2003 Volvo S80 T6.  It is a 6 cyl, twin turbo with an automatic transmission that also has the option to shift gears manually.  I have owned 4 of these and the motors have alway run great well over the 200K mile mark.  The transmissions are usually a little less flawless but they seem to keep going and going.  One example was my 2000 - the transmission started shifting rough once in a while around 70K miles and it finally went out on that car at 227K miles.  This car is in real nice shape inside and out for a ten year old car.  The pictures show the condition well.  I got it for my son and he's used it for the past few months and drives it back and forth to a local job as well as a local college.  We put new floor mats, center console cover and battery in when we got it and went over the car real well.  It has been very reliable.  The car does have some minor issues but nothing I think is major.

Every now and then it runs rough for 20 or 30 seconds when you first start it and that has set the check engine light off twice.  The local autozone reset the light and it showed an oxygen sensor code.  My experience with these cars tells me it's likely one of the coils starting to get weak.

It also occasionally can't decide if it wants to shift into 4th or stay in 3rd gear and my son just uses the shifter to shift it into 4th.  ZThis has happened about 4 times over the past three months.

The front tires look good but the back tires have some dry rot cracks on them.  We've never had to put air in them but I would recommend replacing them.  They also have a VERY aggressive tread to them and are noisy when you're driving.

There is only one key to the car and no remotes. My son decided he wanted an old Honda Civic instead of the S80 so this car has to go.  This is a no-reserve auction so bid to win and ask all questions prior to bidding.  I'll be away from Thursday through Sunday and will answer questions if I can get near a computer.  Thanks for looking.

Volvo's Geneva-bound concept wagon looks sexy in a raincoat

Fri, 21 Feb 2014

Volvo is set to complete its concept car trilogy at the next month's Geneva Motor Show with the debut of its Concept Estate, the followup to its Concept Coupe from the Frankfurt Motor Show and Concept XC Coupe from the Detroit Auto Show. We've been looking forward to its Swiss debut, and now some teaser images of the Concept Estate have been uncovered... on the website of a raincoat seller?
Yes, Swedish raincoat maker Stutterheim has apparently been commissioned by Volvo to build a high-quality car cover for its Geneva concept, and the fabricator's website shows off some of the details of the long-roofed design study. From what we can see, it looks like the Concept Estate is more shooting brake than traditional wagon. Also, it's brown. So basically, Volvo has built the ultimate car for auto journalists.
Joking aside, the images show off more than a few of the design traits we've seen on Volvo's two previous concept cars. A wide, rectangular grille and lowercase-B-shaped taillights are both noticeable in these teasers, but we can't see much more than that.

Volvo will replace C70... eventually

Tue, 05 Nov 2013

Volvo has already announced the end of production for its C70 hardtop convertible, a handsome but seriously dated offering that was last refreshed in 2010. Volvo won't be abandoning the two-door coupe-convertible market for long, though, as news out of Australia claims that a replacement, based on the striking Concept Coupe, will join the Chinese-owned, Swedish brand's ranks, although it's unclear precisely when we'll see it on the road.
"Eventually yes... as soon as possible," Hakan Samuelsson, Volvo's CEO, told the Drive, before adding, "when we are ready."
"The Coupe Concept car, we can put that into production and it will have an exposure on the brand. But at the end it's the cream on the cake and at the end you need the cake first before you put the cream on it," said Volvo's Senior Vice President of Product Strategy and Vehicle Line Management, Lex Kerssemakers.

Heico jacks up Volvo V40 Cross Country to create XC40

Sat, 24 May 2014

Because life isn't fair, we don't get the stylish wagon known as the Volvo V40 in the United States. That means we don't get its soft-roading cousin, the V40 Cross Country. So, naturally, if Volvo tuner Heico Sportiv ever produces this ruggedized, XC-styled V40 Cross Country, it most certainly wouldn't cross the pond, either.
That makes us sad, because despite holding a tiny bit of contempt for small luxury crossovers, this is a very, very cool looking vehicle. It's just a render right now, but Heico Sportiv is looking to offer the kit to V40 Cross Country owners who want a smaller version of the Volvo XC60.
Converting a V40 CC into an XC40 would start with some suspension tweaks. The ride height would be raised by just over an inch, in order to improve the looks of the soft-roader and deliver a more CUV-like ingress and egress. New shocks would also be fitted, as well. Wheel-arch extensions were also added to complete the look.
