Instrument Cluster problems as most Volvos of this vintage experience. You can get one here on Ebay for $199.99. Gas, temperature and clock work fine, odometer stopped at 216k or so and speedometer doesn't function either. 


Blower motor blows fine on 1 speed and heat will roast you. Fan on high speed is noisy, but, like I said, on low speed runs great and will toast you good! Windshield wipers are fine and wiper fluid works great, too.

Passenger side windows go up and down nicely. Drivers windows are locked in the up position; too cold for me to take doors apart to see  what's wrong.

Motor purrs like your GrandMom's "Mixmaster," Transmission shifts nicely hot or cold. 

Body and interior are noteworthy; no tears in interior, perfect headliner too. Rubber trim still where it should be on doors (sometimes it shrinks on this Volvo series). Non smoker's vehicle. No kids, or pets either.

 Body is in very good shape, some paint nicks over the years but no rust holes or big spots (little ones either, that I can find.) The drivers rear door handle has been removed but the door still opens correctly and safely from the inside. I took the car to a body shop and was told that's an easy fix. I don't believe in putting money into used cars to sell them, however. If the car is safe, which this one is, I present it as is. Again, all safety features work and the motor and tranny are solid. No oil burning that I can detect. A friendly neighbor borrowed a hubcap from me; I suppose he'll (or she) will give it back. Tires are good on this doll, also.

All turn signals and lighting work safely and nicely. You could drive this one from Miami to Seattle if you wanted to, in my humble estimation. That statement DOES NOT IMPLY A WARRANTEE OF ANY SORT.

I sold this car to my friend's Mom in early 2006 after I had used it for a couple of years. She's 83 now and no longer driving, and asked me if I would buy it back. I did. It passed Indiana emissions, and I custom plated it. I AM A HUGE GUY, and its a bit restrictive for me to drive daily, now, so, all I am attempting to do is recoup what I gave her, and my license and title transfer fees. Its that simple.

New ebay'ers are dealt with accordingly; this is not lets make a deal and you don't win a prize for being highest bidder. You "earn" the right to pay me and take possession of this vehicle. I keep my listings clear for honest, experienced buyers who don't want prices driven up by someone new and broke, looking for thrills.

Watch this Volvo truck drive up a quarry road using hamster-powered steering

Fri, 13 Sep 2013

Volvo Trucks has been producing some of the most interesting and thrilling commercials around as of late, and this new one involves a live hamster. While you may wonder how could a hamster and a dump truck could be exciting, just know this ain't a Kia Soul commercial: the Swedish truck company enlists the help of a hamster named Charlie to steer an FMX construction truck up a winding road in Ourence, Spain. From the bottom of a quarry. We are not kidding you.
All we ask is that you watch the commercial below to see how it all goes down. If you like what you see, you can then check out a bonus 'behind the scenes' video and press release for details about how Volvo Trucks prepared for the stunt.

Tony Nicolosi confirmed as Volvo's North American CEO

Tue, 14 Jan 2014

This past October, John Maloney stepped down from his post as CEO at Volvo Cars North America. In his place, the Swedish automaker tentatively promoted Tony Nicolosi, who had until then served as head of Volvo Car Financial Services. The appointment was reportedly temporary, giving Nicolosi the title of acting CEO. But according to Automotive News, his position has now been confirmed for the long run.
Although Volvo has yet to announce a new director for its financial arm, Nicolosi says they have found the right person and will announce sometime between now and the National Automobile Dealers Association convention, set to take place later this month in New Orleans.
Last month, Volvo also announced that its global communications chief Bodil Eriksson is moving from the home office in Gothenburg to the North American office in Rockleigh, New Jersey. Anders Kärrberg has been promoted from the government affairs post to take Eriksson's place.

Volvo XC90 First Edition sells out in 47 hours

Fri, 05 Sep 2014

Two days ago, Volvo opened the order books on its completely new 2015 XC90 crossover, and just like that, all of the 1,927 First Edition models were reserved in a scant 47 hours. According to Volvo, most of the vehicles were reserved within one hour of the online ordering site launching, and at its peak, seven cars were being sold each minute.
First Edition models wear a unique Onyx Black exterior, and ride on eight-spoke, 21-inch wheels. Inside, amber nappa leather covers the seats, the dashboard is lined in charcoal leather, and there are walnut inlays throughout the cabin.
Under the hood, the XC90 First Edition can be had with either a four-cylinder Drive-E gasoline or diesel engine (if you live in markets outside the US, of course). The twin-charged T6 petrol model comes with 320 horsepower, and sends its power to the ground via all-wheel drive.
