 I have not owned this car to long.  I need to sell because of landlord issues, I can not keep cars with no plates on the property.  The car is 24 years old and has the wear and tear you would expect.  The interior is in nice condition.  Few cracks on the dash, and the passenger door handle is falling off.  A few missing interior trim pieces here and there.
***odometer is not correct mileage**  odo does not work common issue on these Volvos.  Estimated mileage around 160,000 but not confirmed.  Car needs alignment will drift to right when wheel is let go.  Brakes feel a little rough (but work fine), might need resurfacing.  Engine rocks a bit when gassing,  will need engine mounts/tranny mounts.  Engine is a little rattly may be from the mounts.  Paint on the hood is faded.
The engine is strong though, car will get up any hill no problem. Starts up, New battery.  I am confident you could drive this car where ever it needs to be delivered.  Tranmission feels good shifts threw all gears and reverse no problem. All doors open and close, windows roll up and down smoothly.  I do not feel like the vehicle has any major problems, could be a daily driver with a little love.  No significant rust on this vehicle, under carriage looks good for its age.  Body is nice no major dents, but a few scratches and smudges here and there.
 I did not have a chance to drive this car many miles so all these issues are my impression from the week I was driving vehicle.  If you have any specific questions send me a message I will answer to the best of my ability.

Volvo shows off 345-hp S60 and V60 Polestar

Thu, 06 Feb 2014

We showed you the hot, new Volvo V60 Polestar a few months back and raved about the fact that this long-roofed family car can hit 60 miles per hour in just 4.9 seconds. Now, we're seeing it and its four-doored brother, the S60 Polestar sedan, in person for the first time.
As we told you when the V60 Polestar was unveiled, both cars are motivated by a 3.0-liter, turbocharged six-cylinder that generates 345 horsepower and 369 pound-feet of torque, with peak twist arriving between 2,800 and 4,750. Power is channeled to a rear-biased all-wheel-drive system via a six-speed automatic transmission with paddle shifters and launch control.
Both Polestar models benefit from a suspension that features Öhlins shocks, while they ride on 20-inch "bespoke" wheels. Six-cylinder Brembo calipers clamp down on 14.6-inch rotors in front, meaning these Volvos should come to a stop as quickly as they get going.

Volvo developing new three-cylinder engine family

Mon, 25 Aug 2014

Pop the hood on a Volvo of recent vintage and you'll find four-, five-, six- and even eight-cylinder engines. But the Swedish automaker is downsizing its engines over the coming years. The new XC90, set to be revealed later this week, will use a new family of four-cylinder engines (like the one pictured above). But that's not even the end of it as emerging reports speak of a new three-cylinder engine family in the works.
The new 1.5-liter turbocharged three-cylinder engine will, according to reports, help Volvo further cut its carbon emissions in line with constricting regulations in markets like Europe and Australia. There won't be quite as many versions as the four-cylinder range, which will include gasoline and diesel versions in varying states of tune, but the three-pot motor is tipped to be employed in vehicles as large as the S60 and its stablemates. Larger than that, however, and the three-cylinder engine apparently just doesn't have the necessary torque.
Expect the new three-cylinder engine to be introduced sometime later this decade, after the four-cylinder's introduction in 2016. The three-cylinder engine is also set to form the building block of an even more efficient hybrid propulsion system in the future, enabling this new engine family to stay relevant through 2025.
