The time has come to sell my baby. I just don't have the time or space to finish what I started. For those of you not familiar with this car, it is a 300+ hp, AWD, 6-speed monster with the luxury and safety that Volvo is well known for. The color combination makes it even more rare!
My 2004 Volvo V70R wagon has been with us for about two years. I purchased it with about 185k miles on it, and it is a wonderful car. It was traded into a dealership I worked at, but I got the chance to meet the owner. He had purchased it at about 97,000 miles, and it was his daily driver. As an outside sales rep, he did a LOT of miles, all highway, and needed the car to be in TOP shape to make sure he could get to his appointments without fail.
The vehicle had many OEM parts installed while he owned it - power steering pump, rack, rear struts, fuel pump ass'y are highlights. He also took the liberty and pleasure of upgrading with $1,000's in tasteful and high quality aftermarket goodies. He fitted a Bell FMIC (front mount intercooler), with silicone piping, Eurosport stainless steel cat-back, upgraded hybrid turbo from Viva Performance, software tune from a RICA PPC handheld programmer, K&N drop in filter, drilled/slotted rotors, OZ Ultraleggeras with Michelin Pilot Sports, M1 Abrahms shift knob, and a boost/voltmeter gauge setup next to the radio inside. The car was also fitted with a Volvo OEM trailer hitch setup.
While driving on the highway, the vehicle stalled out. Unable to start, I towed the vehicle home. After checking compression,it had dropped to 60PSI. I removed the head and had it completely gone through by a machine shop. Two valves were slightly bent, so they were replaced, along with all the valve stem seals. The head was checked and cleaned, and reassembled, the valves were adjusted, and I reinstalled it, along with a brand new OEM timing belt kit, water pump, thermostat, and belt. I also checked and replaced the angle gear (common failure on these cars), with a brand new OEM angle gear. Once back together, the vehicle still had 60-70psi across the board, and after a leakdown test the prognosis was that the rings had given out. The verdict was a fresh bottom end rebuild, with the minimum being rings, maybe some pistons depending on what we found when we took it apart. I estimated the work (removing the engine and reinstalling it myself), accounting for machine work and new pistons, to be around $1500. This would be much less if the pistons could be used again. I also have access to a complete running used motor for $2000 - you could install this and sell the refurbished head, or swap the refurbished head on to the lower end and sell the stock head.
This was a VERY fast car, with over 320 HP at the wheels (dyno tested), manual transmission, all wheel drive, super comfortable, and safe. It really is the car that does everything. It won't take much to finish and when you do, it'll be good for another 200k miles. Aside from the bottom end work, the car doesn't need anything. The front struts are believed to be original, but did not seem worn and aren't leaking. The brakes are all in excellent order. The car comes with a set of almost new Bridgestone Blizzak WS70 snow tires. With these, the car was UNSTOPPABLE in the snow. The Michelin Pilot Sports are brand new (2) and about 500-1000 miles (2) - these are over $300/tires!
I considered parting the car out, but again, I'm short on time and space, and it's too rare and incredible a car to break into pieces. If you want one car to do it all, and have a blast doing it, look no further.
Happy bidding!

10 best new car deals of November 2021
Thu, Nov 4 2021Sales of new cars, trucks and SUVs were drastically affected in 2020 due to the (still) ongoing coronavirus pandemic. The market started to show signs of recovery toward the end of last year before really coming on strong in the early months of 2021. Of course, then pandemic-related parts and worker shortages along with global shipping constraints started running amok and causing a great deal of pricing fluctuation and a limited supply of certain vehicles. Those problems (among other things) have led to record-high new-car transaction prices in the United States. The good news is that there are still plenty of great deals on new cars. Using data provided by TrueCar, we’ve compiled a list of some of the best automotive deals for November 2021. WeÂ’ve noted the original MSRP, the average transaction price, and the total savings in both dollars and as a percentage of the original sticker price. Basically, weÂ’ve done all the hard work for you! So now, all you need to do is compare deals, go on a few test drives, and maybe drive away in a great car (and an even better bargain).
Geely to release models developed with Volvo in 2015
Thu, 22 Aug 2013Geely and Volvo will finally team up for a jointly developed vehicle, more than three years after the safety-minded Swedish brand was gobbled up by Geely's parent company, according to a report in Automotive News Europe. The story quotes Geely's CEO, Gui Sheng Yue saying, "We have entered into actual research and development stage and I believe we can see the new product in the year after next."
That means 2015, which is a mighty ambitious timetable to bring a vehicle to market. But as Geely's CEO explains, life isn't going to get any easier in the Chinese market, "Competitive pressure on domestic brands in the China market should increase considerably in the coming years as most major international brands are strengthening their presence," he told ANE. Those statements also tell us that we shouldn't expect to see Geely on American shores any time soon. The brand is simply too focused on topping the Chinese market, at least among CDM brands.
Volvo S60 Polestar concept plays in the snow with Mercedes C63 AMG
Thu, 24 Jan 2013Chris Harris took to a snowy stretch of tarmac to get a fingertips-on-the-wheel feel of the Volvo S60 Polestar concept. Harris says the turbocharged sedan with 508 horsepower and 424 pound-feet of torque - and a manual transmission - is "a study to see if Volvo can get back into the fast-car market." The Polestar S60 concept, one of which was already purchased for $300,000 by a private buyer, is still making the publicity rounds because even Volvo's Chinese owners realize that, as Harris says, "Volvo sold more cars because it made fast cars" like the old 850 T5 Wagon that stormed the British Touring Car Championship in the 1990s.
For reference, Harris compares the blue wonder to the Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG and its 487 hp and 442 lb-ft. The question is, were Volvo to get the price of a production version of the S60 Polestar to climb way down from its 200,000-pound sticker, could it be worthy competition to the established giants?
You can watch Harris divine the answer via a lot of drifting through the snow and a drag race in the video below.
