1990 Volvo 740 GL.  Virtually Brand New with ONLY 8,012 original miles!  Absolutely beautiful condition in and out.  Color is White with Gray leather interior, Black painted pin stripes.   An original California car sold at San Diego Volvo and has never left.  So new that it still has the dealer “New Car Delivery” tag info attached to the rear passenger door glass as well as the factory tags on the driver’s floor mat and seat adjust handle.  It has Always been garaged.  I acquired it from the 1st owners’ estate so only 2 adult owners have pampered it with loving care.

 Mechanical:

Nothing has been modified mechanically in any way.  It has just been through a complete and rigorous service and detail - sparing no expense to bring everything up to date and ready for reliable, safe, everyday use.  The 2.3 liter I4 provides smooth and ample power.  It feels tightly connected to the road while delivering smooth travel in town or on the freeway.  This car runs and drives as new and the low mileage and professional maintenance are evident from the onset.  The engine fires to life instantly with a smooth idle and maintains proper engine temperature in city or highway driving. The engine accessories turn quietly and work well, with the AC compressor keeping the inside very cold and the alternator keeping the battery well charged. The engine bay is 100% intact and has just had a light detailing. 

Everything needed to achieve its mechanical peak has been done including, but not limited to:  Oil and transmission fluid/filter change, Radiator flush and service, battery, complete brake servicing, new timing chain, R-12 A/C serviced (ICE-COLD!!), all fluids checked and topped off as needed, the chassis and hinges were freshly lubricated, and the lamps, warning lights and interior illumination tested. The undercarriage remains remarkably clean down to the creases and crevices due to never being driven in winter conditions.

The steering is tight and smooth and the suspension is in excellent shape handling all roads with ease and rounding corners with no roll or sway.  The original tires were just replaced (less than 100 miles) due to age with Michelin Primacy MXV4 tires (size P195/65R15) providing an amazing ride.  Factory wheel covers are in great shape with only the slightest bit of rash on one.  The car tracks down the road straight and smooth at any speed. The original unused spare tire has never been removed and the jacking tools are present.  

Exterior:

The original paint is in excellent condition and has just had a full detail.  It has never been involved in a collision of any kind.  There are a couple of minor flaws as would be expected such as very minor nicks or chips, but far less than one would expect of a vehicle this age.  No dents, scratches, or rust.  Nothing has been touched or covered up.  All of the labels and badges intact.  The front headlights/surrounds and tail-light lenses are perfect and free of any sun-fading or cracking as would be expected from being garaged/covered.  The glass and weather-stripping is factory fresh all around.  The gentle care and light use it was given are evident.  The underside is clean and wholly preserved. 


Interior:

The interior is very crisp and new-looking, with the beautiful leather seats showing no holes, burns or tears and zero wear.  It’s never carried any children, pets, or food.  The dashboard is perfect and entirely without cracks or fading, and the switches and controls were used with gentle touch. The headliner has just been replaced with NOS due to sagging in a couple of small areas.  Carpet is as new all around with no fading.  The door panels and door pulls are perfect.  The rear seat is as new with no holes or tears.  Comes with the original set of factory floor mats.  2 have a very small stain on them  (note - driver’s mat still retains the floor mat tag and the “Real Leather” tag still hangs on the driver’s seat adjuster).  The trunk area is immaculate.  Absolutely no squeaks or rattles.

Purchase will include 2 original keys, owner’s manual, clean CarFax, and CA smog certificate (passed like new!).

If you are looking for an extremely clean, ultra-low mileage Volvo, this would be an excellent choice. This one feels solid, quiet and tight at highway speeds and is a joy to drive around town.  Bid with confidence - this is arguably the nicest available in the country at any price.

2019 Toyota Corolla Hatchback, Volvos earn IIHS Top Safety Pick rating

Tue, Oct 2 2018

It's time for another round-up of recent IIHS crash tested cars. The trio this time include the 2019 Toyota Corolla Hatchback, 2019 Volvo XC90 and 2018 Volvo S90. All three have earned one of the highest ratings from the IIHS, the Top Safety Pick. And all three continue a trend of very safe cars having slightly below-par headlights, preventing them from earning the highest Top Safety Pick+ rating. Of these three cars, the Corolla Hatchback has the most impressive scores. It earned the highest "Good" rating in every single crash test, including the difficult small-overlap passenger-side collision. It also received the top score for access to LATCH anchors for child seats. The standard forward collision prevention technology also brought home the best score possible, stopping the car before a crash at speeds up to 25 mph. The headlights themselves weren't particularly bad either, earning the second-highest score of "Acceptable" with both the standard and optional LED headlights. This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings. Both Volvos shared similar scores to the Corolla Hatchback, with "Good" ratings for all crash tests they participated in, and top rank for their standard forward collision technology. Both vehicles were not tested for the passenger-side small overlap collision, so there is no score in that area. Both also received the "Acceptable" rating for LATCH anchor access. In the headlight department, the XC90 earned "Acceptable" scores for both of its available headlights, and the S90 received an "Acceptable" for its optional lights, while the standard ones were rated as "Marginal."

Volvo's Geneva-bound concept wagon looks sexy in a raincoat

Fri, 21 Feb 2014

Volvo is set to complete its concept car trilogy at the next month's Geneva Motor Show with the debut of its Concept Estate, the followup to its Concept Coupe from the Frankfurt Motor Show and Concept XC Coupe from the Detroit Auto Show. We've been looking forward to its Swiss debut, and now some teaser images of the Concept Estate have been uncovered... on the website of a raincoat seller?
Yes, Swedish raincoat maker Stutterheim has apparently been commissioned by Volvo to build a high-quality car cover for its Geneva concept, and the fabricator's website shows off some of the details of the long-roofed design study. From what we can see, it looks like the Concept Estate is more shooting brake than traditional wagon. Also, it's brown. So basically, Volvo has built the ultimate car for auto journalists.
Joking aside, the images show off more than a few of the design traits we've seen on Volvo's two previous concept cars. A wide, rectangular grille and lowercase-B-shaped taillights are both noticeable in these teasers, but we can't see much more than that.

Volvo returns to profitability

Tue, 14 Jan 2014

Ford sold Volvo to Zhejiang Geely Holding Group Limited in 2010. Just two years later, Geely announced an $11-billion investment in the Swedish carmaker, its charismatic fugleman Li Shifu saying, "We want to revive Volvo and give the brand its strength back." Two years later, after having introduced the Concept XC Coupe at the Detroit Auto Show this week, Volvo CEO Håkan Samuelsson (above, second from right) declared the company profitable again after a solid 2013 and predicted a positive 2014.
Intending to break even on operating profit in 2013, Volvo exceeded expectations and landed on the plus side due to a mix of factors. US sales declined 10.1 percent for the year to 61,233, that number still making us Volvo's largest market, but Chinese sales were up nearly 46 percent to 61,146 units, and even its home market saw a bump of 0.8 percent; total sales for the year were 427,840, a margin of 1.4-percent over the previous year. Volvo was able to do more with the tiny gain and reverse its half-year operating loss because of a global cost restructuring and thorough revamp of its Chinese distribution network. An announcement of 2013's financial results will come in March.
Bullishness on 2014 comes from the company's intention to focus on its two biggest markets with new models, new technology and more spending. The first product of an independent Volvo, the new XC90, will be revealed later this year on the new SPA architecture. On top of the Sensus Connect infotainment system, Volvo will add driver-aid systems like adaptive cruise control with steer assist and night-time pedestrian detection. It also has a new North American CEO and will spend more on marketing and communications here. In China it will begin to feel more effect from the two Chinese factories opened last year - it has three in the country - and, if need be, can take advantage of more advantageous exchange rates by exporting from China instead of the US. Said Samuelsson of what he expects in the US in 2014, "we will outperform the market."
