Vehicle Description: This is a 7-Day NO RESERVE auction for a 1998 Volvo V70XC Cross Country AWD Turbo Wagon! HIGH BIDDER WINS! Rare Third Row Seating!! Check out the pictures & video! This Volvo runs & drives extremely well! You would never guess the mileage by looking or driving this very nice automobile. This Volvo was traded it at a new-car dealership in NW Ohio and I purchased the Volvo from them. I have personally driven this vehicle for the last 100 miles and it is very nice! The inline 5-cylinder turbo engine runs strong with plenty of power. The automatic transmission shifts smooth with no issues at all. This Volvo is loaded with all the options like power/heated leather seats, power windows and locks, cruise control, keyless entry, and so much more. Zero accident history per autocheck! Mechanically, this Volvo is in good condition. Engine & Transmission are 100%. I have not noticed any leaks on the ground where this Volvo has been sitting. The brakes stop the car smooth and straight. While driving the steering & suspension components appears to be in good shape - particular buyers may note a little suspension rattle when hitting bumps but still extremely smooth and nothing out of the ordinary for a car of this age/miles. The 4 matching Michelin tires have TONS of tread remaining and the vehicle drives straight down the road. No vibrations at all when driving. No driveline noise or vibrations at all. Turbo spools up with plenty of power. Overall, this vehicle drives extremely nicely for its age and mileage. All the power options work like they should including the power seats, sunroof, mirrors, windows, etc. The automatic climate control works and this Volvo blows air on all blower levels and wherever you want it to (vents, defroster, etc). The AC is blowing cold, but for full disclosure when I acquired the vehicle it was warm and I recharged it -- it has held up for a week but there may be a small leak somewhere and the a/c compressor is a little noisy when engaged. The Volvo is equipped with AM/FM/CD/CASSETTE - the radio powers up great and sounds very good. The check engine light is on (code P0108 - MAP sensor high) but there is no noticeable performance issues. There are no other dash warning lights illuminated except for the service light comes on for 90 seconds when the vehicle is started - this is a light that comes on at regular intervals just to remind you to service your vehicle (it does NOT indicate malfunction) and can be reset. The dashboard informational display works and all settings read appropriately. All of the gauges read properly and there are no abnormal readings. The engine runs smooth with no lack of power at all. The keyless entry system appears to be working properly with the key fob. Extremely nice running and driving vehicle! Cosmetically -- this car looks in excellent shape. The exterior paint is in excellent condition. There is no visible rust on the body. All glass is in-tact and in good condition with the exception of a small crack below the sight line in the windshield (see pics). The alloy wheels are in exceptionally good condition. The interior is in very extremely nice condition with no rips or major discoloration. OEM floor mats are included although in used condition. Check out the pictures - they speak for themselves! I have tried to capture both the positives and the flaws in those pictures. There is a minor dent just in front of the passenger side rear wheel in the dog-leg, there is slight cracking on the interior wood grain below the shifter, and some of the leather inserts on the doors are no longer tight, (see pics). These are very minor imperfections that are consistent with the vehicle age. Overall, this Volvo shows extremely nice and will be a vehicle that you can be proud of! I have tried my best to represent this vehicle accurately and to the best of my abilities. Earning and keeping a 100% positive feedback rating is very important to me! I purchase most of my vehicles as trade-ins from new car dealerships as traded. I test drive each vehicle on the expressway and around town for at least 20 miles, often over 100 miles, and use that experience to represent the vehicle to you on eBay. Please remember that you are buying a used vehicle and that a certain amount of wear/use/flaws are to be expected on any used vehicle -- including this one. You are welcome and encouraged to come check out this vehicle for yourself and take it for a test drive before the auction ends.

Volvo ditches leather in its EVs for 'Nordico' and wool blends
Thu, Sep 23 2021Volvo is putting its stake in the sand when it comes to leather in its EVs. Essentially, there will be none of it. This move comes out of concern around the environmental impacts of cattle farming, as livestock is responsible for a big slice of greenhouse gas emissions. The move away from leather was touched on when Volvo revealed its new C40 electric crossover, but now Volvo is telling us exactly what it’s replacing the cowhides with. The main replacement is something Volvo calls “Nordico.” ItÂ’s a material designed and created by Volvo, and the company hopes it becomes the “new standard for premium interior design.” WhatÂ’s Nordico made out of, you ask? Volvo says it consists of textiles produced from recycled PET bottles, recycled cork and “bio-attributed material” sourced from forests in Sweden and Finland. Nordico is set to make an appearance in the “next generation of Volvo models,” so expect to see it rolling into dealers on new Volvo EVs soon. In addition to Nordico, Volvo says it will continue to offer its wool blend interior options. Volvo specifically calls out that it uses wool that is certified to be sourced responsibly in the wool supply chain for the sake of animal welfare. Beyond that, Volvo is continuing to research even more materials it could use as seat and interior coverings to replace or simulate leather — weÂ’re just not sure what those materials will be just yet. “Being a progressive car maker means we need to address all areas of sustainability, not just CO2 emissions,” says Stuart Templar, director of global sustainability at Volvo Cars. “Responsible sourcing is an important part of that work, including respect for animal welfare. Going leather-free inside our pure electric cars is a good next step towards addressing this issue.” Volvo isnÂ’t calling the entire interior “vegan” at this point, though. ItÂ’s planning on reducing the use of products from livestock in its plastics, rubber, lubricants and adhesives, but the cars arenÂ’t totally devoid of reliance on animals yet. Related video: This content is hosted by a third party.

Consumer Reports no longer recommends Honda Civic
Mon, Oct 24 2016Consumer Reports annual Car Reliability Survey is out, and yes, there are some big surprises. First and foremost? The venerable publication no longer recommends the Honda Civic. In fact, aside from the walking-dead CR-Z and limited-release Clarity fuel-cell car, the Civic is the only Honda to miss out on CR's prestigious nod. At the opposite end there's a surprise as well – Toyota and Lexus remain the most reliable brands on the market, but Buick cracked the top three. That's up from seventh last year, and the first time for an American brand to stand on the Consumer Reports podium. Mazda's entire lineup earned Recommended checks as well. Consumer Reports dinged the Civic for its "infuriating" touch-screen radio, lack of driver lumbar adjustability, the limited selection of cars on dealer lots fitted with Honda's popular Sensing system, and the company's decision to offer LaneWatch instead of a full-tilt blind-spot monitoring system. Its score? A lowly 58. The Civic isn't the only surprise drop from CR's Recommended ranks. The Audi A3, Ford F-150, Subaru WRX/STI, and Volkswagen Jetta, GTI, and Passat all lost the Consumer Reports' checkmark. On the flipside, a number of popular vehicles graduated to the Recommended ranks, including the BMW X5, Chevrolet Camaro, Corvette, and Cruze, Hyundai Santa Fe, Porsche Macan, and Tesla Model S. Perhaps the biggest surprise is the hilariously recall-prone Ford Escape getting a Recommended check – considering the popularity of Ford's small crossover, this is likely a coup for the brand, as it puts the Escape on a level playing field with the Recommended Toyota RAV4, Honda CR-V, and Nissan Rogue. While Ford is probably happy to see CR promote the Escape, the list wasn't as kind for every brand. For example, of the entire Fiat Chrysler Automobiles catalog, the ancient Chrysler 300 was the only car to score a check – there wasn't a single Dodge, Fiat, Jeep, Maserati, or Ram on the list. That hurts. FCA isn't alone at the low end, either. GMC, Jaguar Land Rover, Mini, and Mitsubishi don't have a vehicle on CR's list between them, while brands like Mercedes-Benz, Volvo, Nissan, Lincoln, Infiniti, and Cadillac only have a few models each. You can check out Consumer Reports entire reliability roundup, even without a subscription, here.
12 new cars that will never go out of style
Tue, Nov 23 2021Some cars never go out of style. It’s rare, but it happens. They get old. They get depreciated. But they never stop looking cool. Some might call them modern or instant classics. Within a few years theyÂ’re no longer the latest and greatest, no longer the flavor of the month, but they remain special. Eternally special. Timeless. These cars arenÂ’t necessarily going to be worth a fortune someday. However, some may not depreciate as rapidly or as far as other models. But thatÂ’s not what weÂ’re talking about here. These are the cars that enthusiasts will always find desirable from the curbside. TheyÂ’re the cars you end up shopping on eBay late at night 10 years later because you canÂ’t get them out of your head. TheyÂ’re the cars that will forever excite you when you spot a clean one in traffic or in a parking lot. There are plenty of recent examples over the past couple of decades that could count as instant design classics. But then we got to thinking, what 2021 models will be forever cool to stare at? Which new cars and trucks on sale today will we be shopping on eBay late at night in the 2030s? We kept supercars and other ultra-expensive cars off the list to keep things within the realm of attainability, and ended up with 12 total cars. Lexus LC WeÂ’re not applying a numerical ranking to any of the cars on this list, but if we were, the Lexus LC would be No. 1. There isnÂ’t another car design out there that can stir our emotions the way an LC can when itÂ’s just standing still. This car is a concept design come true in the most beautiful of ways, and itÂ’s a shoo-in winner for Concours events decades into the future. All of this heaping praise, and we havenÂ’t even gotten to the LC 500Â’s intoxicating 5.0-liter V8. It doesnÂ’t win drag races. It wonÂ’t be the fastest around the track against any similarly-priced competition. But none of that matters. ItÂ’s quite possibly the best car you can buy new, and that says it all when it comes to the LC. Chevrolet Corvette It might not be the stunner that the Lexus LC is, but the new C8 Corvette is and will always be a special vehicle. ItÂ’s the first mid-engine Corvette, which instantly cements it into an automotive hall of fame section of sorts. All of the performance stats and specs are there to back up its supercar-like looks, and it remains the best performance bargain on sale today.
