     I'M SELLING MY WIFES 1998 GREEN VOLVO XC AWD WAGON.  THE VEHICLE IS RUNNING ON 2 OF THE 5 CYLINDERS.  IT WILL START WITH ONLY THESE 2 RUNNING BUT IS OBVIOUSLY NOT HAPPY.  THE MECHANIC SAID THE COMPRESSION ON THESE 2 CYLINDERS IS FINE, I BELIEVE BOTH AT 119 lbs.  HIS INITIAL DIAGNOSIS INDICATED EITHER A WARPED HEAD, VALVE JOB, TIMING BELT, WATER PUMP IF THERE WERE NO LOWER ENGINE DAMAGE, OR A USED REPLACEMENT ENGINE WHICH HE LOCATED FOR $1200.00.  MILEAGE IS 154,500.  THE TIMING BELT HAD BEEN CHANGED AT 142,000 MILES.  EITHER WAY, IT WAS GOING TO BE TOO MUCH TO PUT INTO THE VEHICLE.

     SOMEONE REAR-ENDED THE VEHICLE AND SHE THOUGHT THERE WAS NO DAMAGE, BUT THE REAR BUMPER SAGS A BIT BUT IS SOLID.  YOU MAY NOT HAVE NOTICED THIS IN THE PHOTOS.  THE INTERIOR IS COMPLETE BUT IS VERY VERY DIRTY AND NEEDS DETAILED BADLY.

     REALLY A VERY PRETTY CAR.  LOTS AND LOTS OF GOOD PARTS.  IT WAS RAINING WHEN THE PHOTOS WERE TAKEN, BUT THE PAINT IS IN GOOD SHAPE.  WE HAVE MOVED SINCE THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED AND IT IS STILL AT OUR OLD HOUSE 'TIL THE HOUSE SELLS.  TITLE IS CLEAR AND WILL BE MAILED UPON SUCCESSFUL WINNING BID.  LOCAL PICKUP ONLY.  NO SHIPPING.  AS IS, WHERE IS.

     I'LL TRY TO ADD MORE INFO AS I THINK OF IT OR AS I ANSWER QUESTIONS.

Volvo details upcoming XC90's new scalable platform

Tue, 12 Aug 2014

In two weeks' time, we'll be boarding a flight for Stockholm for the live reveal of the new Volvo XC90. But before we do, Volvo has revealed another round of salient details regarding not only its new crossover, but a whole range of new vehicles to share its architecture.
That platform is called Scalable Product Architecture, and it follows the latest industry trend towards modular platforms. The product of four years' development, the new platform uses high-strength boron steel to optimize weight and rigidity. The scalable architecture, set to underpin the next-generation S60, V60, XC60, S80 and anything larger, offers designers more flexibility in terms of proportions. It can be adapted to a wide range of vehicles of different shapes and sizes, designed from the get-go to incorporate a range of powertrains (including the XC90's new twin-charged hybrid system) and all the latest safety technologies you'd expect from a Volvo.
The XC90, Volvo has revealed, will also offer increased interior flexibility, with movable second and third rows to optimize cargo space and legroom as needed. That third row is designed to accommodate children (or small adults) up to five-foot-seven. Meanwhile the image inset above gives us our first glimpse at the new XC90's styling, with T-shaped running lights inspired by Thor's hammer.

Editors’ Picks July 2022 | Volvo XC60, 911 GT3 and a hot Hyundai

Tue, Aug 16 2022

This latest rendition of Editors’ Picks sees us recognize some enthusiast-focused vehicles on both sides of the price spectrum and a luxury SUV. The 911 GT3 was an easy shoo-in, but the Hyundai Elantra N is what surprised us the most. WeÂ’re sad to see the Veloster N bow out after this year, but at least the N model in its place is a worthy one. In case you missed our previous Editors' Picks posts, hereÂ’s a quick refresher on whatÂ’s going on here. We rate all the new cars we drive with a 1-10 score. Cars that are exemplary in their respective segments get EditorsÂ’ Pick status. Those are the ones weÂ’d recommend to our friends, family and anybody whoÂ’s curious and asks the question. The list that youÂ’ll find below consists of every car we rated in July that earned an EditorsÂ’ Pick. 2022 Volvo XC60 2022 Volvo XC60 Recharge View 36 Photos Quick take: The Volvo XC60 is one of our favorite luxury crossovers, and the PHEV option is a killer setup. We dig the interior design, and the exterior is attractively Swedish, too. Score: 7.5 What it competes with: Alfa Romeo Stelvio, Genesis GV70, Jaguar F-Pace, BMW X3, Mercedes-Benz GLC-Class, Audi Q5, Lexus NX, Acura RDX, Volvo XC60, Lincoln Corsair, Infiniti QX50, Porsche Macan Pros: Great design, epic PHEV option, intriguing interior design options Cons: Tech can be cumbersome, big wheels lead to a stiff ride From the editors: Road Test Editor Zac Palmer — "When it comes to plug-in hybrids, there's no better compact crossover option than the XC60 Recharge. I really dig the extra-powerful electric motor and larger battery Volvo added this year. The interior wool option is my pick of the bunch, but I am a little disappointed that there aren't as many physical buttons throughout the interior as there were before." News Editor Joel Stocksdale — "Although it's got some age, the Volvo XC60 is still an excellent premium SUV. It's as handsome as ever with its clean, modern design inside and out, and feels genuinely luxurious. But what really sets the XC60 apart is its available plug-in hybrid powertrain. It's smooth and refined, and best of all, it's still great in electric mode.

Volvo to use Oz as test bed for more Polestar models?

Tue, 25 Jun 2013

We've already told you about the slightly more awesome version of the Volvo S60 that our friends Down Under can now get their hands on. And according to Aussie site Drive.com.au, Volvo may look to the land of Oz for future testing of new, Polestar-tuned, high-performance models.
Volvo has reportedly confirmed that this S60 Polestar run will be an exercise in testing the acceptance of the Swedish tuner's presence as a proper competitor for things like BMW's M division or Mercedes-Benz's AMG. (A tall order, for sure.) "The world is watching this exercise with much interest," Volvo Cars Australia boss, Matt Braid, told Drive.com.au.
Hans Baath, Polestar Managing Director, reportedly hinted that the tuning house had already begun work on a hotter version of the V40 hatchback, but the project was scrapped in order to get the S60 program rolling. If there's success to be found here, this smaller hot hatch could be revisited, as well as a more powerful version of the XC60 crossover.
