2001 Volvo V70 Xc - Great Condition & Many New Parts. No Reserve. on 2040-cars
Brooklyn, New York, United States
|
Selling my excellent 2001 Volvo V70 XC. 2.4 liter Turbo engine. Automatic transmission.
I'm the 2nd owner and I originally bought the car from the Manhattan dealer. It currently has 112,000 miles on it and it drives great and handles better than new. I've made many upgrades to the car and it has the best cargo space out of any wagon on the market -- the rear seats fold totally flat and it has a pop up 3rd row of seating in the back. I just bought a new wagon and need to sell it (though I don't want to), but don't want to pay for the additional insurance as well as deal with NYC parking with 2 cars. My upgrades and recent new parts include: - New battery (5yr warranty) - New timing belt, tensioner and water pump @ 105k miles - Brand new transmission brain (TCM - transmission control module) 2-weeks ago. This includes all relays along the harness (dealer installed) - New transmission installed at 90K miles (dealer installed) - New control arms installed at 90k (when the transmission was done) - New rear hatch hydraulic arms/supports - IPD front/rear sport sway bars & 12mm front end links installed at 95k miles (makes a huge difference to the handling - makes it corner much better) - New front springs installed at 100k - New IPD heavy duty front strut upper pads installed at 100k (another great suspension upgrade) - K&N air filter - New front bumper installed at 95k (there was a crack at the bottom when I bought it and it was faded, so I replaced it) - Comes with new Pagid brake pads (not installed & much better than stock)) The overall condition of the interior is in great shape. The door panels at the rear have some wear on them. The sunroof tilts up fine, but the frame that secures the interior sliding roof panel is loose and so...the sunroof doesn't open properly (the headliner needs to be disconnected on one side and the frame can be easily fixed). The rear hatch "open" warning light goes one - one of the wires got pinched when installing the new support arms in the rear...but everything locks fine. These are all minor issues. I have many receipts of parts bought, dealer work as well as independent shop work done to the car since I've owned it. It has a 4CD changer stereo that sounds fantastic. Besides what I mentioned above, everything works great. The engine is bullet proof and so is the 4 wheel drive -- it'll plow through any snow storm and it has this past (brutal) winter. The paint is in very good shape with a couple minor dings and scratches -- better than appropriate for a car of this age. This wagon has served me incredibly well since I've owned it (I bought it in 2008 with about 60k miles). As I mentioned, I wouldn't get rid of it if I didn't have to. I'm selling this car starting at a low price with no reserve. Who ever wins, I'm sure will get a great deal - it's not a beaten and worn wagon. It's fun to drive and will take you anywhere and over anything. The new transmission was over $7k, timing belt/water pump parts and work was $1,400, the suspension upgrade was another $1,500, etc. The synthetic oil and filter has been changed every 3,500 miles while I've owned it. If you're in NYC - come by and take a look. Here's a link to 25 pics of the V70 (type in http behind the "s"): s175.photobucket.com/user/rockgin/slideshow/2001%20Volvo%20V70XC Since this is a used vehicle - it's sold in AS IS CONDITION with no expressed of implied warranty. The buyer is responsible for pick up or shipping within 7 days of the close of the auction. A $250 Paypal is required within 24 hours after the auction ends and the balance is to be paid in cash at the time of pick up. Please note that the car is also for sale locally and I reserve the right to pull the auction down if it sells. |

Autoblog Podcast #317:
Volvo aiming for a stock IPO by the end of 2021
Thu, Jul 1 2021Volvo Cars is "making good progress" toward a potential initial public offering by the end of this year, the chief executive of the Swedish premium auto brand told Reuters on Wednesday. "We are looking at the possibility of doing an IPO before the end of the year," listing shares on the Nasdaq Stockholm exchange, company CEO Hakan Samuelsson said in an interview. Samuelsson and other Volvo executives on Wednesday laid out an extensive road map to becoming a fully electric car maker by 2030, including plans to sell 600,000 battery electric vehicles at mid-decade and build a European battery gigafactory in 2026. Volvo earlier this year scrapped a proposed merger with the company's Chinese parent, Hong Kong-listed Geely Automobile. In March, Geely said Volvo would explore capital market options, including an initial public offering and stock market listing. Many startups have gone public in the United States and China over the past two years, following electric vehicle market leader Tesla Inc in taking advantage of investor enthusiasm to raise cheap capital to compete with established brands such as Volvo. Samuelsson said Volvo and Geely will continue to share vehicle architectures, internal combustion powertrains and other components. But the companies will do so at "an arm's length distance," consistent with the way independent companies do business, he said. During Wednesday's briefing, Volvo also said it plans to equip many of its future vehicles with self-driving technology, including standard lidar sensors from Luminar Technologies Inc and computers from Nvidia Corp. "Our goal is to build the safest cars possible, using all available technology," Samuelsson said. As it launches new electric vehicles, Volvo also plans a slew of related products, including insurance and vehicle subscription payment plans offered directly by the automaker, Samuelsson said. "The whole vehicle business will be recurring revenue," Samuelsson said. In Europe, the company plans to change its retail operations so that customers order new electric vehicles directly from the manufacturer, with dealers paid commissions to deliver them, Samuelsson said. In the United States, where laws protect existing dealers, Volvo will still sell vehicles through franchised retailers. For its future electric vehicles, Volvo is working with Swedish partner Northvolt on a new generation of batteries with higher energy and designed to be packaged as a structural element of the vehicle.
Volvo V60 Polestar is one hot hauler
Tue, 26 Nov 2013Earlier this year, Polestar jumped from the racetrack to the showroom with its own take on the Volvo S60 sedan. And given the similarity and the proud history of hot Volvo wagons, not to mention the spy shots and teasers, we knew it would only be a matter of time before Volvo's racing partner would return with a similar take on the V60. And that's just what it's done.
Powering the new Volvo V60 Polestar is the same 3.0-liter turbocharged inline-six as the sedan, driving 350 horsepower and 369 pound-feet of torque to all four wheels through a six-speed automatic transmission and Haldex all-wheel-drive system. Hitting 62 miles per hour reportedly happens in the same 4.9 seconds as the sedan, on its way to a stop speed of 155 mph.
The power upgrades come courtesy of a twin-scroll Borg Warner turbocharger, intercooler and overhauled exhaust system. Other upgrades over Volvo's own R-Design model include stiffer springs, Öhlins shocks, 20-inch wheels, Brembo brakes and a full aero kit, not to mention an upgraded cabin from which to command the performance.
