Excellent condition for age. This is a very safe,reliable and beautiful Volvo. This is our 3rd Volvo and have enjoyed all of them
I am the 2nd owner. When I bought it a few years ago I did all the necessary and recommended service. (100,000) mile service. Complete tune up,replaced radiator and thermostat, changed timing belt and did a transmission service. In the last few months I replaced a cv axle and put 4 brand new tires on. These tires are quiet and handle great. Just changed the oil and filter so the new owner won't have to. 
From 10 feet out the car looks brand new. Upon closer inspection you will still be impressed. Only minor scuffs and abrasions that you would expect a 10 year old car to have. It has the original paint. Car fax and title are clean, no accidents. The interior doesn't have have any rips or tears. Normal wear and tear. Many of the older Volvos available have many cosmetic and mechanical issues. I would say this car is above average for the year model. My wife drove the car everyday. I have 2 keys, 2 keyless entry remotes and the original owners Manuel and booklet. She bought a Lexus this time so it's time to sell this car.    In interest of full disclosure and to be as fair as possible for bidders that are not local and can't see or drive the car before bidding:  when I first bought the car around 30 or 40 thousand miles ago I had certified Volvo technicians do all of the maintience.  I questioned how the transmission shifted. It has never slipped, it just seemed to me like it wasn't down shifting as smooth as I expected. They told me it was normal for the Volvo's. I was paranoid so I had it serviced anyway. They said the turbo gives it that extra punch on acceleration and the torque converters aren't as smooth as the even older Volvo wagons. I use a 8 dollar transmission conditioner a couple of times a year and it makes it as smooth as I think it's supposed to be. This has been a great car.  Looks great, I get compliments all the time. I have been a proud owner, and hate to get rid of it but my wife was ready for something different. We made several long distance trips in this car, and wouldn't hesitate to drive it anywhere.  I am going to market the car locally for $6500. I would like to sell it in the next week so I am offering the car at no reserve. Thanks for bidding.

2015 Volvo XC90 is the Swedish future

Tue, 26 Aug 2014

It's been months since the Concept XC Coupe debuted at the Detroit Auto Show, Volvo's last show car previewing its all-new 2015 XC90. But the production model is finally here after years of development, and it signals the future of the Swedish automaker with its Scalable Product Architecture modular platform and cutting-edge new engine family.
The 2015 XC90 carries all-new styling, but is still familiar up front, with the company's logo slashing diagonally through its prominent, upright grille. Like the concept, it carries T-Shaped LED running lights through the headlights. The company calls them the "Thor's Hammer" design, an evocative designation that we think is fantastic. Under that new front end is a choice of two quite powerful, but very efficient powertrains. The standard XC90 gets a 2.0-liter turbocharged and supercharged engine with all-wheel drive making an impressive 316 horsepower. Or if buyers want to be a little greener and more powerful, there is the XC90 Twin Engine plug-in hybrid with the same engine, albeit augmented with an electric motor to produce a staggering 400 hp.
The exterior styling is crisp, if not quite as sensual as Volvo's latest concepts, but we think the interior is the real star here, with a dashboard that looks like it came out of a Herman Miller catalog and a unique vertically oriented infotainment screen integrated into its center stack, perhaps taking a cue from Tesla. If the cabin feels as good as it looks, we think a lot of sales are going to be won inside.

Volvo denies boss Jacoby is taking a run at Opel CEO post

Tue, 07 Aug 2012

It seems that every news report that involves the name "Opel" is eventually followed by a report that says, "Uh, never mind." Executives fill positions, then they're gone, or they're supposed to fill positions but duck out before doing so, five-year product offensives turn into grabbing for life preservers, and turnaround plans are followed by... new turnaround plans. With the recent departure of Opel CEO Karl-Friedrich Stracke, Swedish newspaper Dagens Industri reported that Volvo CEO Stefan Jacoby topped the list of candidates to sit in Opel's very hot seat.
Volvo spokesman Stefan Elfstrom has piped up to say "Mr. Jacoby is fully occupied with running Volvo and has no plan for leaving his present job." Stranger things have happened, though, and who knows what the truth is, but we have to admit we'd be surprised if Jacoby jumped off the Volvo express - recently given an $11-billion boost by parent company Geely - to take his chances in the Opel maelstrom.
So Opel's search for a CEO continues. At least we have the Adam to look forward to.

2nd annual Automobile Advertising of the Year Awards revealed

Tue, Jan 13 2015

There was some absolutely fantastic auto advertising in 2014, ranging from funny to inspiring. Marking the best of it from the past year, the Second Annual One Show Automobile Advertising of the Year Awards were announced during the 2015 Detroit Auto Show (full disclosure: Autoblog was among the award's sponsors, and Editor-in-Chief Sharon Carty was a voter). Unlike previously, there were no brands with dominance over the list this time. Presented by The One Club, the awards have an international scope and hand out honors in a variety of categories. In the Broadcast TV group, there were three winners this year. First, there was The Scripted Life from Audi for the Q3 about breaking out of life's monotony. Also, Dad's Sixth Sense from Hyundai marketed the safety features in the Genesis. Finally, Unbreakable Drivers showed manly men being tested for the Toyota Hilux in Australia. The Online Video prize went to the fantastic The Epic Split spot from Volvo Trucks starring Jean-Claude Van Damme. The best Interactive ad was the Honda video titled The Other Side for the Civic Type R, and the Experiential Advertising nod was for the Volkswagen Eyes on the Road clip that showed the dangers of texting and driving to a theater full of moviegoers in Hong Kong. Finally, the Public Choice Award went to the BMW commercial called Hello Future using the words of sci-fi author Arthur C. Clarke for the i8. In the award not for videos, Jeep won the Print/Outdoor category for its Upside Down campaign. Check the ads out below, which show different animals when upside down. Also, look farther down for all of the winning videos and read their full announcements.
